Oh My God

The event we have all been waiting for is here - H&M and Lanvin have released the video for their upcoming collaboration!  The kooky film, with a cameo by creative director Alber Elbaz, shows off what looks like a seriously large collection made up of coats, shoes, separates, dresses and jewellery (oh, and a fur jacket at the beginning that my mother seriously needs).  Just try to spot the top models they have used - there are too many to count...

Waiting until November 4 when the full collection launches on the website...

Sunday Girl for a Wednesday Morning

This morning Kristin The Clothes Whisperer posted a link on Facebook to the above music video, the latest by a new pop-star in the making, Sunday Girl. Known to her friends as Jade Williams, it seems this bright young thing has a fashionista background, having worked with Kristin at Grazia magazine. OK, so that is probably the reason for the Olivia Palermo-esque styling and the slightly rah hair, but it certainly doesn't account for the sweetly-but-no-quite-innocent voice or the excellent videos (considering she designs and produces them herself!). Her latest song is called Stop Hey (above), but she has also released covers of singles by the likes of MGMT, Ke$ha and (my favourite) 80s power-ballad legend Laura Branigan.  As one commenter on Youtube wrote: "never have I heard the lyrics 'I’ll move to Paris, shoot some heroin, and fuck with the stars' sound so wholesome." And it seems, as usual, that I am well behind in my musical discoveries, since Jade has already been featured on Popjustice.  I am looking forward to seeing what she will be able to produce once now that she has the full backing of a record label...

Bubo the Golden Owl

How did I not know about this owl?!  Many thanks to Glenn Belverio for bringing this to my attention.

Frieze Art Fair: Videos

That's right, I was even inspired to record some moving images at London's Frieze Art Fair.  Except I forgot my Flip at home, so these were snapped on the old iPhone, hence the crappy picture quality...
