Here's part one of my New York Fashion Week SS2013 Highlights. Better late than never:) 

Good old Ralph Lauren really pulled it out of the bag this time with hyper feminine styles mixed with Bolero accessories and leather details... J'adore!

Pretty.

Today is not a pretty day so it's a day for pretty things.

Pati Yang – Hold Your Horses EP

London-based Pati Yang's second EP ‘Hold Your Horses’ will be released on the 17th of September. Described as "Robyn's evil twin sister" Yang's blend of oddball pop and electro quirk is a refreshing listen. The EP will be led by the uplifting eponymous title track and followed by the alarming sirens of ‘Darling’. Have a listen and stream it here.

Things I Like. Right Now.

Morning blog lovers, so many good things out there. Here are some things I adore. Enjoy. x

Yeasayer - Fragrant World

Old-Skool

Smokey Robinson - Tracks of my tears

 

Frank Ocean's Channel Orange and particularly this...

Crush of the Week - Chloe Sevigny

It's been a long time since the last crush of the week, but I have recently rediscovered my unfaltering love for Chloe Sevingy. Bring on the girl crush. 

Here's why Chloe's the one. 

She's got the best fashion line in collaboration with Opening Ceremony. I want every piece. Always.

She's been in some very good movies. She's been in some very shocking movies. Kids, Boys Don't Dry, Gummo, The Last Days of Disco, American Psycho...

She's got the best voice, the best flat and the best wardrobe.

At Home with Chloë Sevigny: Part 1 from Opening Ceremony on Vimeo.

She's simply got the look.

Ohhh and this....

Things not to worry about...

122 Words

Be grateful for the friends that edit your silly drunken love emails at 3am and for the ones that revise your hate mail too. That shit matters.

Don't write drunken love emails at 3am. 

Forget about time wasters and happiness drainers.

It's all about give and take. In any relationship.

The best angry reaction is dignity and silence. No reply is a reply too. No answer is an answer too.

First chances, second chances but no third chances.

We must travel in the direction of our fear.

Invest time and energy in the people that invest time and energy in you. 

Bad people just make the good people better.

If you’re going to give, then just give. Don’t expect anything in return.

Waters - Mickey Mantle

My faves WATERS got involved in the Music Video Race and teamed up with Peter Ruecktenwald and pulled this whole concept and finished video together for ‘Mickey Mantle’ (taken from his current album ‘Out in the Light’) in 48 hours. Impressive stuff. 

300th Post!

OMGizzle I have made it to 300 posts. It's a special day and since I have always done some sort of summary list post for the milestones of 100th and 200th post, I thought why change a winning team. So today I present you with my very personal favourite posts list ever. Because I couldn't decide on the ten best, you get the 14 best ones. Wooooo. ENJOY!

The art of writing a love letter. Allow that shit! 

Just gotta be on here! My first ever post and thoughts that sparked starting this blog (Excuse the terrible formatting back from 2009 – blogspot is obvs not the greatest, which I didn't know then....) 

Boys as Soup. What can I say, it's just a fucking classic! 

Pretty proud I got Karley from Slutever to guest blog for me!!! 

When I started interviewing boys about what they really thought. 

When I got stood up and REALLY pissed off. 

I'm REALLY into lyrics. 

I'm REALLY into Michael Cera. 

Bloody Knees. 

Sometimes I really go mental on this blog. It's good. An open letter to life. 

When I got pissed off that someone who wasn't honest thought I was too honest. Whatevs bro. 

Johnny Cash's To Do List is just a classic. 

When I started interviewing my BFFs. 

DRAKE! Obvs. 

Wireless 2012 - My Highlights

Wireless 2012 was wet and muddy. Still saw some of the best shows (and ruined my trainers). Below my top three highlights from Saturday and Sunday. Boomtown.

Drake. I cried. I laughed. I loved every minute.

A$AP Rocky - Still one badass mofo.

K.Koke Rekindled my love for Stoney B's finest. Such a tight set and such a skilled rapper, also a bit scary, but I like it.

Frank Ocean Loves

Frank Ocean. Fuck yeah!
