Check these out – funky pink headphones that double up as ear muffs ready for those long cold days we have recently been experiencing.

I’m not normally a fan of large headphones, I much prefer the subtle look of my iPod earphones that are thin, white and hide away nicely in your ear, but I have to admit there is something very appealing about Skullcandy. I think it could be the fun pink colour, the use of fur and the fact that they actually look and give the same quality as pro DJ style headsets that I find so irresistible.

Get these over your ears and keep warm whilst bopping. Experience how music should sound and log on to www.catapult.co.uk and get your very own Skullcandy for £52.99.
