Drake - Show Me A Good Time? 7.10.10

Is it me? or is there no escaping Drake's 'Show me a good time?' Like many i'll admit to being a bit of a Drake groupie 0_* sorry no I mean fan. Taken off the album 'Thank me Later' Show me a good time is already an unreleased hit! HOWEVER... What is with the beat? Who produced that?...Only a musical genius such as Kanye West!! Judging by my sarcasm you can see that i'm not a fan of the beat. Lyrically Drake never fails to amaze me but with a beat that sounds chipmunks dieing 'ah ah ah ah ah ah ah' it's hard to see why Kanye was let loose. But I still like the song so hit the button above and enjoy.

Haute coture revisited? 25.03.10

When we think of Haute coture we think of 'high fashion', fashion houses specifically for an individuals body measurements a chic tailor made, hand crusted piece.

Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Balenciaga and Dior spring to mind. These labels are still around which for us is a gratifying delight. However most of today's Hatue coutre is created to enhance the prestige of a label and most of it is rarely sold. However on the rise today are more and more high brand labels with strong influences of Hatue coture. Even high street brands such as www.topshop.co.uk have started producing beautiful one off pieces.
