I’m geeking the fuck out!!! Byron Crawford just followed me on Twitter, life. made.
My favourite article not only educated me on Rick Ross but, taught me how to insult Ross to die hard fans properly Select Crab Meats is a hilarious write up and one of Byron’s best.
These are probably two of my proudest Twitter moments. Yes, I did just say that.
ERDEM Autumn/Winter 2012
My style vices have got to be layering and dark colours, so basically I hate Autumn/Winter… Not only is it cold and do I have seasonal depression but, I look real unflattering for months on end.
Don’t get me wrong, I can more than appreciate Autumn Winter collections (they’re INCREDIBLE) some of my favourite looks and pieces comprise of the components that I loathe on myself. However, I can never fully immerse myself in it, for fear of drowning under the weight of 10 pieces of apparel for ONE outfit. Also, I’m very skinny so black tends to make me look malnourished, not chic and svelte :(.
In comes Erdem, still championing the neon from summer and translating it into wearable elegant pieces that wouldn’t look amiss on Kate Middleton or Victoria ‘my steez is too much for you’ Beckham. I NEED that over-sized Dayglo paint splattered coat in my life! The sumptuous classic Mad Men esque 60’s tailoring accompanied by obnoxious colouring looks so delicious that I cannot believe I’m about to say this but, I’m sort of looking forward to Autumn/Winter 12.
That being said… LONG LIVE THE SUN.
ALICE MCCALL, Why You So Delicious!?
Alice Mccall’s S/S 2012/13 has all the dainty qualities that we’ve come to adore from dolls.
The intricate folk type needlepoint pieces inspired by Russian nesting dolls are my favourite of all the collection. Also incorporated into the collection are gorgeous sheer silk dresses, perfect for gliding in and out of parties, possibly on a cloud… with a light breeze dancing around your hair (obviously).
Neon is all over the catwalks and as much as I love how Dayglo is being classed up and dominating the runways this summer, it’s Mccall’s crisp baby blues and gorgeous tangerine pieces that are a great reminder that classic summer hues still look fantastic this season.
The entirety of Big K.R.I.T’s album Live From The Underground a week in advance and available to stream from NPR. The internets so great, right guys?
A heavy southern vibe (obviously) with the album largely produced and entirely written by K.R.I.T himself, it’s pretty bloody impressive.
BADU NUDES!
Well… From her sister Nayrok Badu. Beauty runs in the family and all that!
Yup, it’s that time again for male and female alike to be pressing their faces against their screens, fervently enlarging photo’s just to get a better look at the Badu magic. God, do you remember when the Window Seat vid came out and we all lost our shit and sat their collectively in awe of her?

Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep?
You know when you meet people and you wonder if they’re dead behind the eyes? You know, like they’re pretty much a mere shell of a human that once was. Well I have and I think I’ve discovered a solution!
Next time, instead of being a judgmental douche bag why not Ridley Scott them and give them a Replicant test and find out once and for all if they’re a robot… because it’s probably not boring run of the mill po-faced narcissism but in fact the latter, robots.
My mix COMMANDMENTS is featured on mixcloud’s urban category front page; TOO #EXPENSIVE TO PUT INTO WORDS! Big ups Mixcloud.
Needless to say, I’m a very happy girl!
Twin Peaks is NOT suitable bed time viewing, I never learn.
In homage to Destiny’s Child The Writings On The Wall I have created a mix for my own enjoyment and of course, yours. Each song correlates to the individual commandment found before every track on the album, making every song on the mix real delicious.
As per usual with each music post… ENJOY!
#EXPENSIVE

GIRL EATS FOOD
“Boy sweets are so much better. All the charachters look like they’re on Mescaline.” - Jo Fuertes Knight
Brand spanking new editor of Noisey and all round boss bitch Jo Fuertes Knight shows off her filthy culinary porn in her new Vice cooking show Girl Eats Food.
If you don’t know about her yet, then it is my great pleasure to introduce you to one of my favourite girls in this media game. She’s a rare combination of sweet and truly disgusting… Enjoy!
Amy Winehouse - Me & Mr Jones (Fuckery)
— Joan Holloway (Mad Men)
This is the BEST thing I’ve seen in a long time, I’ve been laughing for 15 solid minutes… ENJOY!!!
BEYONCE: “I wanted to congratulate you on having the number one album.”
RIRI: “I don’t have one, though …”
BEYONCE: “I know. I said I wanted to say that … but you don’t give me the reason to.”
MARIAH: “And that is exactly why I’m the queen of hearts in this deck of cards, Rihanna’s not even the Joker, it’s me. She’s that one card that people throw out as soon as they wanna play the game, the one that has no purpose… it’s just words.”
I adore eating, books, impulsive decision making and talking.
ALL OVER THIS.
HAHAHA
