Summer

When is summer coming back!??

I can't stop listening to The Drums, a NY based band, it's not even because I think their music is amazing, it's just I love how they descibed it:

"We only write about two feelings: one is the first day of summer when you and all of your friends are standing on the edge of a cliff watching the sun set and being overcome with all of your hopes and dreams at once. The other is when you're walking alone in the rain and realize you will be alone forever"

They manage to bring summer into music. They're like the Beach Boys, when you listen to one of their songs you can't help but daydream of the heat of the sun and the bright white sand...

I'm aware of the fact that a lot of people don't like them but, I've started to have a warm place in my heart for them.

A McQ

Once again you managed to shock us. Once again we were all breathless after the decisions you took. I just wish this time they'd been fashion decisions.

You came in with a Bang and there's no other way you could have left. I doubt there's anything I can say that hasn't already been said over and over again. You're a genious and you'll be missed.

17 March 1969 - 11 February 2010

Hope fashion heaven is treating you well.

GOOD MORNING

Waking up is always a hard thing to do, therefore you need a good tune to kick you off bed. Even though this song is starting to get old it still does the trick!

Hope you like it!

Maison Michel

Maison Michel is a French firm that creates hats and hair accesories. Since 1936, when Monsieur Auguste Michel created his first atelier at 65 Rue Sainte Anne in Paris, socialites, celebrities and mere fashion lovers have gone bananas for their designs. In 1980 Maison Michel, under the artistic direction of Pierre Debard, started to create the hats for the prêt-à-porter and haute couture collections of major fashion firms such as Chanel, Givenchy, Lanvin, Lacroix or Nina Ricci.

By 1996 Chanel takes over Maison Michel and in 2006 the first Maison Michel store opens to the public allowing a wider audience to buy there, rather than just the exclusive elite of private customers it used to have.

You probably recognise the photos of the A/W 2009 collection which was shot by Karl Lagerfeld. Here are some examples:

Testing Manual Camera

I've started my photography lessons at Parsons, but I wanted to test my Dad's manual camera so that I wouldn't look like an absolut fool.

Titus & Crush

FINALLY I decided to buy the album by Titus & Crush from the iTunes. I've been looking for it for AGES and only just thought about looking in iTunes, I guess I just had a bimbo moment.

So, the reason why I wanted to find them is because they have this new really cool idea. Basically what they do is they get their lyrics from vintage porn movies from the '70s and add the music to it. Here's an example:

Come On! by Titus & Crush

How cool!? I'm obsessed with them!
