New dogs, old tricks: Upcoming artists in yesterday's fashions

I was perusing Tumblr, as you do, and came across this beautiful picture:

I put my internet detective hat on (i.e., clicked the source link) and found it it's from W's feature on new artists in old fashions, "All Shook Up". The lady above is Lianne La Havas, a neo-soul artist hailing from England (is it just me or does England have the folk/soul thing on lock these days? Rebecca Ferguson, James Morrison, Adele, Duffy...)

Here, we see artist Selah Sue in two floral dresses, sporting an awesome frizzy bouffant. I especially love the gilded sunglasses she's holding in the picture at left.

Please check out W magazine's feature for more photos and more new artists to check out!

Prabal Gurung's video for Resort 2012

What a cool, fresh way to present a collection. And the song ain't half bad either!

Do you like Rye Rye? How about Prabal Gurung?

Music Monday (on a Thursday)

I am really NOT feeling this song, but let's play a game: How many designer looks can you spot?

I'll start you off with the most obvious one: McQueen (0:32)! There's also some Givenchy...

Music Monday - Jamie Woon

Jamie Woon - "Lady Luck" from stereogum on Vimeo.

Awwww, yeah.

I think we could all use some cheering up (major understatement), so watch this weird/funny video.

Remember Yelle ("A Cause de Garcons")? Here's her latest song, I think:

Enjoy...

Music Day

I've listened to this song 13 times today. I just LOVE it! One of my favorite songs of the 90's mixed with a slow jam/electro tune is perfection. Enjoy! (Oh, and play DJ Hero if you get a chance. It's a lot of fun!)

My favorite boots

I love these! They're from the Dolce Vita x Target collaboration. They definitely were a great buy, though it seems like they weren't in stores for very long. Anyway, I feel like such a badass when I wear these. Seriously... I feel like an extra from this video:

Music day, woot! (Skepta - Rolex Sweep)

This song/video never fails to make me laugh. Enjoy!

Music day!!

In all the fashion week buzz, I forgot to post a new music video. My bad!

For your perusal, the Acid House Kings. Enjoy. :)

People, Get Ready!

Well, September is here, and we all know what that means -- Fashion Week is right around the corner. There's also Fashion's Night Out (Sept. 8). Is anyone going out for that? I would like to do something here in DC, but I don't want to go all on my lonesome...

Here's a little video that (very tenuously) fits this post's theme. Enjoy!

P.S. I will re-upload the Mini Editor so that you don't have to go hunting for it if you want to enter into the $1,000 sweepstakes. Woot!

2NE1 - Follow Me

This video is pretty darn cool! It came out a few months ago, but I just saw it for the first time today. Apparently this group is going to try to make a U.S. debut...

Anyway, the reason I'm posting this is because 1. It has some funny moments (Darth Vader in the house!) 2. The song's catchy, if you like pop 3. Their makeup is pretty cool, and 4. They're wearing some dope outfits, including some stuff we'd all recognize!

Check it out, and I hope you enjoy!

P.S. I'm thinking of doing a regular feature, like "Music Monday" or something, where I post a song I've been listening to a lot lately or whatever, and maybe include an outfit inspired by the song music, lyrics or artist. I'd also take requests. What do you think?
