Dear girls of CT, you’re not gonna find your husband at @nick_kaoma’s loft cc @Uno_July #Hides

This man is 47 years old. He also covers the latest edition of The Block magazine.
Besides the pretty pics, I also loved what he said about the current state of music:
“I’m not happy nobody makes albums anymore,” he says, explaining why he chose to make his new album, Black and White America, a double. “The album is a piece of art. A painting, a sculpture, a book, a photograph. I grew up in a time when albums were monumental. Stevie, Marvin Gaye, Led Zeppelin, Miles Davis, Stones, whatever it might be. They were serious things and they were beautiful. It was a statement, the entire album. Now we have the ability to pick apart the songs. As far as keeping the preservation of the album, it’s the worst thing. It’s like going to buy art and saying, I’ll just take the left corner of the painting in the bottom. I want the foot. Well, the intention was the entire painting. It’s the same thing with the album.”
Zoe Kravitz, if you’re reading this (har har), please hook me up with your dad? Thanks.

Seems like it’s Mr Price Monday on my blog, right? Can I help it that my fave fast fashion store is pulling out all the stops to impress?
Amber Jones is set to release another range into Mr Price stores this November. Here are some of her pretty amazing things as seen on the runway:






Cleo Droomer, 2010’s Elle New Talent winner, is finally getting his stuff into Mr Price stores today.

I cannot deal with how cute this collection is. I have my eye on that maxi/ grey top combo.

Egoliwood makes some young women forget that they have parents. #WhatWouldYourMOMSay
I do so love this girl, Nyasha Matonhodze. Who can blame me when she keeps producing amazing pics such as these, which appeared in Vogue Japan:






LOLing at @AsandaSizani’s BBM status. Honey, I think you’re in for some disappointment. It is Egoliwood, after all!

I’m a huge fan of creative covers (who isn’t?) and this Complex cover featuring Kid Cudi blew me awwwaaaayyyy! How awesome?
The inside shots also ran with this great concept:



Great concept, fantastic execution!
The cover interview with Mr Mescudi is also worth the read. In it, he speaks about his path to sobriety, acting, making music and managing himself. Seems like such a cool guy.

Mr West is showing his Spring/ Summer 2012 collection at 9.30pm on 1 October at Paris Fashion Week. Right after Gaultier and Loewe! Have you ever!?!?!?!?
I actually cannot deal with the excitement
According to Harper’s Bazaar Australia:
Kanye West will unveil his first womenswear collection during Paris fashion week. The S/S 2012 collection will be shown as apart of the official schedule at 9.30pm on October 1, directly after Jean Paul Gauliter and Loewe, contrary to reports that West was going for a presentation-style format for key editors only. The looks are being kept under lock and key but we’re already getting excited for the most talked-about show of the season which, if it’s anything like its designer, is sure to be larger than life.
