FABULUSH

Daisy Lowe for British Esquire (i-pad size if downloaded) from Greg Williams on Vimeo.

Wicked behind on posting since my mind & body are still on vacation mode, but here’s a little Thursday treat leading you into the weekend. Not only do I love this song, but I’ve got a mad girl crush on Daisy Lowe. She’s got a body to bite at; compared to all the skinny minis that haven’t bitten into food in years. Can we bring back the T&As? Just sayin’…

Somehow time on Thursdays always seem to escape me, but I wanted to take a moment to share this song with you that’s been been the soundtrack for today.  Sam Sparro is an Aussie turned Angeleno artist that mixes his sultry vocals with some sick electro-pop house beats to get an eclectic, yet smooth sound.  If his vocals aren’t charming enough already, he’s got a face to match… but as they say, “The cute ones are always gay.”  *sighhhhhh*

Sam Sparro – Black and Gold

If the fish swam out of the ocean
and grew legs and they started walking
and the apes climbed down from the trees
and grew tall and they started talking

and the stars fell out of the sky
and my tears rolled into the ocean
now i’m looking for a reason why
you even set my world into motion

’cause if you’re not really here
then the stars don’t even matter
now i’m filled to the top with fear
that it’s all just a bunch of matter

’cause if you’re not really here
then i don’t want to be either
i wanna be next to you
black and gold
black and gold
black and gold

i looked up into the night sky
and see a thousand eyes staring back
and all around these golden beacons
i see nothing but black

i feel a way of something beyond them
i don’t see what i can feel
if vision is the only validation
then most of my life isn’t real

’cause if you’re not really here
then the stars don’t even matter
now i’m filled to the top with fear
that it’s all just a bunch of matter

’cause if you’re not really here
then i don’t want to be either
i wanna be next to you
black and gold
black and gold
black and gold

The Kaiser released a 17-minute film filled with the fresh faces of: Elisa Sednaoui (one of my current girl crushes), Pascal Greggory, Magdalena Frackowiak, Heidi Mount, Freja Beha Erichsen, Abbey Lee Kershaw, Karolina Kurkova, Baptiste Giabiconi and Leigh Lezark. The film journals through epic eras with throwbacks and homages to historic icons such as Bridgette Bardot, Jane Birkin, Mick and Bianca Jagger. It’s all told through Lagerfeld’s keen eyes and with supermodel swagger.

Watch. Giggle. Lust.

You know when you hear a song and it just resonates with you for a while; possibly to the point of jam dancing in undies nonstop?  Well, The Black Keys “Next Girl” is wearing out my speakers.  Their new album drops on May 18th, entitled Brothers.  It will have their classic twangy, rock with bad ass beats signature sound mixed with a bit of Danger Mouse, who again is producing the album like their last, Attack and Release.

Quite possibly my favorite song at the moment… just replace girl with boy and it’s the story of my life.   Enjoy my loves.

02 Next Girl – The Black Keys

“Well, the look of the cake, it ain’t it ain’t always the taste

My ex girl, she had such a beautiful face, I wanted love

But not for myself, but for the girl so she could, so she could love herself

Oh my next girl, will be nothing like, my ex girl

I made mistakes back then, I’ll never do it again

Oh my next girl, she’ll be nothing like, my ex girl

It was a painful death, nah, I got a second chance

Oh her beautiful face and her wicked ways, and I’m praying for her beautiful face everyday

All that work, over so much time, if I think too hard, I might lose my mind

Oh my next girl, will be nothing like, my ex girl

I made mistakes back then, I’ll never do it again

Oh My next girl, she’ll be nothing like, my ex girl

It was a painful death, I got a second chance.”
