Don't forget!...

Hear this: Noisettes

IN-CREDIBLE! The NOISETTES, who I am currently obsessing over is a UK based trio who are taking the music industry by surprise. They have no specific sound although lead singer Shingai Shoniwa, whose versatile vocals have seen her compared to everyone from Deborah Harry and Kate Bush to Billie Holiday and Diana Ross. Shingai also has incredible style and can be seen wearing a futuristic number on David Letterman. Below is a video for the hit song 'Never forget you' which really seems like it comes from another time altogether!



"For us, making music means keeping our ears open. We’re not trying to be trendy – we want to make music for everyone – but we put effort in to every aspect of being in a band. Our aim is to prove that pop music can still be alternative and exciting. With this album, I know we can do that.”

The Desert Boot returns

This fashion must-have may appear odd to the first glance but I assure you when worn properly this look can serve you well. The Desert boot- or 'veld skoen' as it's affectionately named here in South Africa has been around for a long time. As seen here by Clarks in their celebration of 60 years of the Desert Boot.





But it's Paul Smith (of course) who produced the best version in my opinion. These fantastic scuffed Achilles Desert Boots are hot!

Made in Suede this shoe comes in Oakwood and Sigaro, but I've battled to find them online. I believe there are still some left in the Paul Smith store.The dip dye process consists of the uppers being immersed in dyes and tumbled in large wooden drums to colour the upper leather, lining and stitching.







And the how would you wear this shoe?

Fine and Dandy Indeedy!

You may be familiar with their blog Fine and Dandy. I had another look after a long while and saw something very cool that got my attention. In a time when we really are reaching into the closet as deep as we can, it comes as no surprise that Tie clips would too return.

Luckily it has a function other than looking nice-- which I think the men out there will appreciate. You won't have to call the waiter to tell him there's a tie in your soup!

The gold key Tie bar which is fantastic can be found here.
