Kelis: Acapella Video Preview

Hey, I know it seems like I must be on some sort of Keliswatch right now but it's only because I really like her new stuff so much. Well, this weekend she released a short teaser of her music video. It shows Kelis wearing a native American headdress with artistic twists to it. e.g. the constant short flashes of Kelis in a blue-lit room with fluorescent pink lips and a masquerade mask ... I like. But to be honest, I DID expect to see something a bit more, metal, electric - themed. By the way, the video was shot in London. My hometown.

Kelis...

Okay so Kelis is on the verge of breaking out again, she's dropped her track Acapella for all the radio stations and the video will be released sometime soon. But this is what I want to know ... (and hardcore Kelis fans will be able to agree with me on this) why is 'They Say featuring Kid Cudi' not the first single from her new album!? I do not even know if this song is official or if it is a leak but this song sets the standard for what I EXPECT TO HEAR IN 2010, any less is not appreciated! Kid Cudi's feature on the song is just, great! He doesn't rap or anything, he sings (when rappers 'sing' on a track they are actually just talking slowly) with Kelis on the chorus. The song is just reminiscent of Spring/Summer fashion! Honestly, it reminds me of Marching Orders, the marching throughout the track makes me want to see a video now now now!

Don't get me wrong, I DO like Acapella. I listened to it for the first time on my train into college and I actually got very very VERY happy about how much I was enjoying the song, and people were looking at me like I was crazy. Like I didn't know already! (I am not a crazy. I promise you.) But yeah, Kelis ... please release They Say, even if you only release it in my household i will be VERY happy.

Listen to 'Acapella' here.

The Sims 2: Dead or Alive?

(When I look back at some of my Sims Artwork, I really miss the 'create-a-sim process) Hi again! Well, this week I finally uninstalled The Sims 2 and all the expansion packs off of my laptop. I feel like I've grown out of it. After a while, I would only use it to play around with celebrity lookalikes, e.g. Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Kanye West, BARACK OBAMA! On my last few days of the game, I created this bare 'photo' of Lady Gaga. I featured this on my blog because I personally think it is actually beautiful; if only it was real! After I took the picture on the game, I spent a few hours on Photoshop editing it. Sometimes I ask myself why I find the game so addictive, I really don't know why. But, I dunno, what do you think, should I install it again? I wanted to have 'Trash models' to feature on my blog. I think it'd be cool. I need advice!

Style Guru: Diamonds & Denim

Hi guys! I just thought it would be cool if i jazzed up my pictures a bit so I'm just going to do a little something on all my pictures. ( a little reminiscent of Kanye West's "where are you yeezy?"). In the meantime, here's a little something for you. I'm in a good mood. My new favourite store French Connection have a whole new collection, with A LOT of denim (you will see in my next 'style guru'!). But umm...yeah, I love denim shirts, so I based this whole minimalist outfit around that Topman denim shirt. Enjoy!

Happy Birthday: Alexander McQueen

Lady Gaga ft Byonce: Telephone Official Video

The video is FINALLY HERE! That it was shot nearly two months ago makes me wonder why they took so long to release it! Also, there is SO MUCH advertisements in this video. Most companies knew the impact this video will make, so they probably thought "pshh, why not!" i mean really, COME ON! A dating site, a phone, take-away ... everything is advertised in this! Anyway, enjoy!

B.o.B: Nothin' On You Official Video

I heard this song (umm...legally?) about 3 or 4 months ago and instantly fell in love with it; the chorus just caught my attention straight away! After a while, it was my ultimate favourite song of 2009 Winter, and now the video has hit the web and I am excited! I haven't watched it yet, I just found it and decided to share it with you all!

Style Guru: Diamonds & Dark

At this years London Fashion Week, Carolyn Massey's A/W 2010 wowed me. She brought an Italian feel with all the soft materials, tailored trousers and merged it with a 1990's Japanese style with unstructured tops, the beiges', blacks and skinny belts. So, here is your Autumn/Winter style hook up (a few months early).

Style Guru: Diamonds & Dusk

Here is just a fun, easy and effortless look I put together. It's pretty much perfect for a night out with the girls, your first date with the hot guy you catch eye contact with every morning on the train, or even to a family get together. French Connection's Grecian inspired dress flatters most body shapes. And Topshop's Wedges matched with River Island's Tights work wonders for shorter women. Complete silhouettes can lengthen your legs and make you look MUCH taller.

Erykah Badu: Window Seat (Jimmy Fallon Live)

Erykah is serious about New Amerykah Part 2! She took back to the stage for a live peformance on Jimmy Fallon Live this week. She wowed me (at the least) with her questionably awful outfit! What do you think?
