//258/ Anais in Oyster

Publication: Oyster Magazine
Issue: #98
Styling: Stevie Dance
Photography: Benny Horne
Model: Anais Pouliot

//I love this. The photography is sublime, the styling is super cool and I like to have my headphones with me all the time too (no matter what I am wearing), so it's kind of close to home I suppose.

//241/ Music: Azealia Banks

                                 

//The fashion world had barely settled on its last spunky female favourite (namely Lana del Rey who has been featured in and on numerous magazines including the British Vogue , ID, Wonderland, W, Interview, Q -I´m am almost exhausted of her though I do like her music) before the next has already been identified.

//Enter Azealia Banks, who finished third as the Sound of 2012, already has sold out concerts all around the world and has performed (with Cara Delevingne) at the opulent Karl Lagerfeld dinner (though only two songs, I would imagine that her lyrics were somewhat out of place). I love her cocky, careless approach and the somewhat 90s feel to her rapping.

//So switch it to full screen and watch it, the video is super too. If you like it, take a look at L8R.

//111/ Dress: Natalia & Razorlight

Natalia Vodianova and Johnny Borrell from Razorlight
Publication: Vogue UK
Issue: May 2007
Photography: Mario Testino

//I was paging through one of my old magazines and I fell in love with this photograph. I have always had a thing for Natalia, but have never really become aware of Razorlight: I am in the process of getting to know them...a good start? Golden Touch.

//90/ Music: Pulp Fiction

You ain't got no problem Jules, I'm on the motherfucker

Who's Zed?

Zed's dead baby, Zed's dead.

Are you sure this is absolutely necessary?

Did you just order a five dollar shake?

Mmm, don't you justs love it when you come back from the bathroom and you find your food waiting for you?

Come on girl, we're getting out of here.

God damn Jimmy, this is some serious gourmet shit.

//I only recently watched Pulp Fiction and I love so much about it: Uma Turman; her wig; those sunglasses in the first image; the amazing script; the strange humour; Samuel L. Jackson; bizarre, blood-drenched scenes and John Travolta, but most of all the soundtrack featuring largely Tarantino, some Neil Diamond and some sweet surf music. I coincidently found it just a few days after I watched the movie and it has become the score to my every day since then.


//So do give it a listen, my favourite tracks are 5, 7 and 15. And if you find it nowhere else, give Amazon a try (oh yes, that's some shameless promotion)...Oh and seriously, how great is it when you get back from the restrooms and your food is ready??

//73/ Dress/Music: Prada & Ratatat

Prada Spring 2011 Campaign
Models: Arizona Muse, Tati Cotliar, Mariacarla Boscono...

                               


//I have been listening to a lot of Ratatat lately and then BOOM there is the Prada Campaign Video Clip and the soundtrack is Mirando by Ratatat...I think you can imagine how excited I was. Other than that I love the video, it is fun and bouncy but otherworldly all the same. I'm quite fond of the jazz-inspired clothing too and well, those colourful heels, I would kill for them...

//45/ Music: The Windy City

//Hmmm, maybe you are thinking what are these grainy-out-of-focus-no-good-photos doing here. Well they are from a gig I went to last night, and maybe you can tell that I am not used to taking photos at live events, much less with a digital camera (I shoot on film, only). I was super disappointed with the photographs I took but after touching them up slightly (I never do that, usually) and adding some noise (mostly to disguise the blurriness, but also to integrate them better) I think they are passable.

//And now to the actual matter: this is a new band on the Cape Town music scene...The Windy City. They have barely started (I think they are maybe half a year old) and already have a substantial fan base. Hmm well this is not very surprising, their music is very decent. Don't expect me to describe it please (errr what do I know hmm?) but listen to their music here or check out their website here aaaand definitely go to their gig at The Waiting Room on the 28th of December (providing you're in Cape Town). You're welcome.
