Nicki's (yes I like this and the video) love song makes me google old Annie Lennox/Eurytmics classics I haven't heard in a bit. See the iconic Annie Lennoxs heartbreaking original "No More I Love You's" .Here's some from my Annie Lennox Stylosopher folder:

I think you'll see I fancy miss Lennox a lot! (Limahl to the right!)

Ar(g) Man I Jeans

Since I've been such a lousy one lately, here comes another one. Clicked my way over to the NUEVA MUSAS blog, and found these images under the title; EMPORIO ARMANI 1988. Just yesterday when I had dinner with my b-ball boys, we talked about Armani's own basketball team in Milan that goes by the name of Armani Jeans Milan, and how come they didn't have jeans on (...c'mon at least jeans shorts) while playing.

Mr Lego Head got me a present, something he'd found that made him think of me...! Was it the beret, the name belt, the stance or just the fighting spirit? I got to say my underarms are heavier though... Peace On The Streets like it was 1980.

How Much Style Can You Take At A Time?

Post date Sun 16 May 2010 10:20 PM

I used to truly love Madonna as a kid, did abandon her when I got deep into music, did that trip searching for the "realness" just to, about 20 years later, being old enough, mature enough, to understand a bit more about Popular Culture and how brilliant a good pop song is - and what it takes to reach masses of people. Then of course I wouldn't say Madonna should be compared  with innovative musicwise/compared with music in less commercial fields (- but there is some BUT's, cause Madona did stripped down Trip Hop over Public Enemy beats on Justify My Love before the term was coined). I think you already got it, I'm saluting her full spectra as an Pop-Artist and her ways of taming the Zeitgeist. Okay now take a look at this collage- click for bigger image-, it's from my Madge vaults, findings on the net and at the parents house (so sorry for the lack of photo credits, but I hope any photographer seeing this is ok with sharing with the people...like I think she herself wanted)

Original 2FACED1: Madonna

Post date Fri 14 May 2010 8:55 AM

- Velvet, Jeans and Shifting Identities

1989: From Like A Virgin to LIKE A PRAYER, the song that got Madge banned by the conservatives and the VATICAN, and had a afro-american Jesus and burning crosses in the video. In true Madonna manner  she also made Like a Prayer-add-version for, yep you're right - PEPSI (watch here)! Yes, we talking Pop Culture in a commercial (But I'm thinking of the difference between: "having profit as the main aim" and "having fame as the main aim") field, but you understand how massive this is don't you?

STYLINGWISE: it's just what we think is HOT in this minute, you got the velvet, the jeans blue, the bustiers and the earthy henna tones.

In the book MADONNA-AS POSTMODERN MYTH (2002) author Georges-Claude Guilbert discuss how Madonna's alteregos and phases reflects today’s society, it's contradictions and attitudes toward sexuality and religion etc. From an postmodern angle, the shifting images that personify Madonna are the most interesting and enduring part of the Pop Cultural icon she is. Or as we say over here, Madonna is an original 2FACED1.

Post date Wed 7 Apr 2010 2:47 PM

Once again, better late than never. During this blogging hiatus we've missed some great editorials that just need their space up in here. It's V Magazine, ladies and mens, doing good right now. First we go for Christian Brylle and Yuki James shooting Come On Feel the Noice inspired by 80ies Heavy Metal Parking Lot - movie. Great styling and wonderful hairs!

 

 

Then totally amazing MIRROR MIRROR make up (wow!) by Chanels Peter Philips, photo by Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin and styling by Panos Yiapanis

 

And the finally Josh Olins (havent found the stylists name yet) PUSH IT REAL GOOD, with some really tight pictures but also a few less interesting, see the rest here.

Don't Call It A Comeback....

Post date Sat 3 Apr 2010 9:29 PM

Dear Readers, I see U're still here despite poor update frequency lately, glad for that! There is a lot going on and both on a professional AND a personal level. So what up?

We'll try to make the 2FACED1-part as recurring as we planned from the beginning. Next week you'll have the 3rd 2FACED1 up, who's a character in a double sense.... Number 4 and 5 is already shot and coming up short after. I know that not all people out there understands what 2faced1 is about, but they will.

As some of you now I'm also currently working with ROBYN, and we'll see exactly what that collabo will end up in, in the near future, we're still sketching one can say. You can see a bit of what we do over at SVT Play (in swedish! Jag rekommenderar att ni kollar på detta, intressant program över lag), they followed ROBYN during a week, and they hooked up with us while dancing. Ouf girl is heavy loaded this time around too, you've heard "Fembot" and "Dancehall Queen" and that's just the beginning. I'm just saying "Dancing On My Own"...I been doing ruff choreographic sketches (staging) to this one and I got so into the emotion, that it brought tears to my eyes....!!! Pure popmusic at it's best!

Easterbunny looks: Military Beret, Jean Paul Gaultier Junior (JPG Junior was not for kids as U might think, iit was just Gaultier lower prized line developed in 1988) THANKS Helena at MOMA (who bout it back then!!! Ol' School!), Monki Skirt, Levi's 501 (womens) Jeans, Tubes, Creepers.
