Amazing video invite I received for the weekend - how do these people do it?

BUBBLEGUM SOUL

Just a  few random images that inspired me today. I'm really getting into coming to work early - you basically just have to read the news and catch up on stuff you've been neglecting. Gets you in a good place to start your day :)

HOW NICE FOR YOU

I'm trying to take my style (and this site) in a new direction - and thank God Magenta 8 just sent me a some pics of their new collection. The garments are everything I'm looking for at the moment - well tailored, chic and clean with precise, sophisticated lines. So nice - and weird I haven't heard of this brand before - Apparently it was started by a Peruvian designer called Giovanna Velasquez. 

I would love to get my hands on some of the cropped jackets and short capes to style as day looks - I highly recommend having a look at the website.

GLORY BE

One of my favorite things to do on a Sunday is watch Inside the Actor's Studio. Russell Crowe is so intelligent and wise and likeable in this interview, I really learned a lot.

THERE'S PLENTY MORE WHERE THAT CAME FROM

Me: Loving Jessica Rabbit's hair and colorful skirt separates from Warehouse.

REAL TALK

This is FIRE! I absolutely love this music video. I wonder who choreographed it, someone did a great job combining Harlem-esque vogueing and club banger moves. Dawn slayed it. As the girls say, "I live!"
