and better than ever! Thierry Mugler the 70s-80s iconic designer, is back to supplying the cutting edge fashion world with his genius. his textures, angles, bold colours, and original design aesthetic all the things i hold near and dear to my style check out the awesome site and buy this stuff up! the inspirations section is a standout. who knows if he'll disappear again... act fast. [just like Sasha FIERCE who he began his comeback with hehe]
London Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2010 my friend had the guy who designed this as a fashion professor in india. he slept with him after graduation. the shirt makes so much sense now. and i want one. ashish, email me for my address. xoxo, ubi
Au Revior Simone- Shadows first single off of Still Night, Still Bright out today the new album is very electro. more so than their former albums. but its classic ARS. sweet and indie female vocals. albums on sale on itunes now or 7" vinyl at most indie record stores worth their weight. i need to go one of their shows. soon. i haven't seen them live yet, and i wish i had been at this union pool show. le sigh. damn they are a delight.
An Actor Out of Work- St. Vincent from Annie Clark's new sophomoric album Actor due out tomorrow, may 5th its seems like such a rush after her 2007 first solo album, Marry Me, that i was absolutely obsessed with only last summer, but that album was a bit of a sleeper hit. if you are in Austin tomorrow, go to the listening party with Camera Obscura @the Mohawk, i bet it will be major this video is from the sxsw sessions from npr, i like it more than the refined video. i like her raw, her voice is so pure and sugar sweet and mixed with those groovy guitar rifts...you know i am sucker for that with a sprinkle of whimsically back beats. i have also heard The Strangers from the album...its great too [paint the black hole, blacker...] this is a delightful, light, not too in your face, but highly enjoyable album to start the summer's slew of indie hits.
i think i love you, i think i am mad www.ilovestvincent.com
***UPDATE 5/9 Last night at the Bjork/Dirty Projectors show, I had the pleasure of meeting Annie. She was so sweet, she enjoyed the show as much as I. She was so cute and pretty. I definitely will be checking out her show at Webster hall on May 20, tickets aren't sold out yet, PLEASE JOIN ME!
As a slightly obsessive *albeit discriminating* follower of all things pop culture, i figured it was about time that i too would begin a social commentary on blogspot. my own personal take on all things that i am currently intrested in. i am a huge fan of genius style-high fashion and simpleton style-low fashion that looks like haute. i read many fashion glossies. i frequent fashion. beauty. celebrity blogs. i online window shop more than anyone i know. i am a self defined music elitist, who prides myself in discovering new bands. i will drop anything to go to a live show. i am wasting far too many brain cells on random *unimportant* pop culture facts. i am also a wandering, socially conscious hopeless romantic.
