When I saw this editorial, I immediately thought of America by Simon & Garfunkel (have a listen here). They're coming to Hali in May and I am beyond excited.
I first saw this video when I was in France in 2005 and the song, Mon Essentiel, sung by Emmanuel Moire, has been one of my favorites ever since. The words, the music and the melody are mesmerizing and gorgeous. The video represents the decadence and sensuality of the time of Le Roi Soleil, Louis XIV. And it doesn't hurt that Emmanuel has the most pillowy lips and amazing hair (prob. a wig, but whatevs). The video isn't of the best quality but it was the only one I could find. Enjoy. PS- Don't forget to stop the playlist!
While the pop music industry has become over saturated with cookie-cutter, contrived acts like The Pussycat Dolls and Girlicious, Lady Gaga has succeeded in establishing herself as a true artist, both musically and stylistically. This video is mesmerizing: the costumery (Alexander McQueen!), the choreography and the music. Not since Madonna has there been an artist so avant-garde and so likely to spark controversy. (Don't forget to stop the playlist before watching the vid).
So into Guns n Roses' look from the '80s right now. Cutoff denim vests, moto jackets, leather pants, vintage rock tees, studded cowboy boots, leopard print and big ass hair.
