If you aren't listening to it already, you should be

I was curious about how this relativley new collboration between Lloyd and Nelly would sound. I have a soft spot for both these artists and tend to be more partial when listening to their tracks and don't disregard them too quickly. This track, made my day!!! When I heard the song, this track was sampled on, it was enough to wake me out of my long, lazy blog-writing slumber!! A classic 80's love song staple, from one of my all time favorite movies..Top Gun!!! This one's a keeper!! Lloyd & Nelly's 'Do It Again'

Shoes of Fashion Week

I thought the shoes of fashion week deserved a post of their own....if I could manage a coherent sentence to describe the associations with these images, the keywords would be 'Spell-bound', 'Wishlist' 'NOW"....

Street Styling

No sooner than you put your summer clothes back in your wardrobe and you start dressing for Fall, it’s time to think of summer again!! September heralds the return of Fashion Week, which is the culmination of many months of round-the-clock hard-work to present looks, trends and colors that are going to dominate the next season. Though the runway shows are ‘bang-on-trend’, it’s the flurry of activity outside these shows that are far more captivating. Street style’s taken center-stage and personal style is being broadcasted all-over the internet like never before, through cleverly captured candids by the likes of The Sartorialist’s Scott Schuman, Style.com’s Tommy Ton and a host of others. Photography is an art and these photographers have mastered the art of capturing the essence of true style, which is the ability to transcend above the monotonous conformity to runway trends, color wheels and fashion do’s and don’ts. As a result, the images are a visual treat, an explosion of color that you’d never thought could be worn together. Accessories which you think border on garish, but when worn by these style chameleons, makes you want to almost run out and get yourself the same thing…. that is the power of personal style!!!

If You Aren't Listening To It Already, You Should be

These two heavyweight tracks don't dissapoint!!!! First of is 'Strange Clouds' which is the first single from B.o.B's second studio album..this one features (again) Lil Wayne. (He seems to be having a good run on his collaborations!) Here's a trailer for the new single.... Then Rihanna takes the Kelis route and tries out Calvin Harris on a track called 'We Found Love'. This one's gonna be all over the charts!!! Two great tunes on a Monday!!! It doesn't get better than that!

Speedy Singh

I think Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar have set Bollywood's newset trend of roping in international artists to make music for their movies. Akon's 'Chamak Challo' for Shah Rukh Khan's Ra One is a major thumbs down...but on the contrary Ludacris fares really well on 'Shera Di Kaum' with Akshay Kumar for his home production 'Speedy Singh'. The cast for the movie includes Rob Lowe, Camilla Belle and funnyman Russell Peters!! I've seen the promos and Russell Peters' is hilarious in this one!

Freedom

When you are the designer 'du jour', it's hard to go unnoticed and before long your signature style soon loses it's sheen.... I think that's going to be the case with Falguni and Shane Peacock....so with one look at the outfits for the new Sugababes single 'Freedom' and you know who designed the outfits.
