4 the Love of Music! #1


My love for music can’t ever be held back neither can my curiosity for finding new sounds and artists. I'm always looking for something new - even if it's old.
'4 the Love of Music' is simply my way of sharing more than just inspirational pictures on Tumblr and Instagram. Music is a big part of my life and a huge source of inspiration, not just for me but also for a lot of people. That's why I've decided to release 4 of my favorite songs on the 4th of every month!
Not always does the “mi casa es su casa” phrase work, but it does in this case! Here's a piece of my 18-year-young head & heart:

"I Play Tough As Nails With My Heart On My Sleeve"




I am going to start with one of my all time favorite songs because I feel like it was written for me. The young lady who sings it, is not a stranger in the Fashion World. She was my "Style Ruler" prediction for 2013 in '2013, the Year of...?' on DiFashionista. What makes this song even better is the fact that I also associate it with the DiFashionista Blog motto: "Style is Personality". Let this fun - fierce - fabulous masterpiece take you over:

Solange Knowles -
Sandcastle Disco
Album: Sol-Angel & The Hadley St. Dreams




"You Fill Your Pockets, Yet You Empty Out My Soul"





One of the things I can really appreciate in music, is: the truth. Pop  music is made for radio stations, but a lot of musicians - mostly Indie bands - have a habit of telling the truth no matter what. I have not heard from the band what this song is about, but this song describes the modern music industry that I get bored and/or annoyed with. It's not just the song that made an impact on me, but the video is also really really good:

Churchill -
Change
Album: Change EP





"Red Cars Are Quite Rare I've Realized, Then I Wondered Which Color You'd Like"



BOY consists of two girls with fresh faces that will light up your headphones with their eccentric and easy going music. The video is just as relax and free as their music. I just heard their album Mutual Friends and fell in love with this track:

BOY -
Little Numbers
Album: Mutual Friends





"Without Her I'm Lost, but My Love Don't Fade Away"


The British band Mumford and Sons have had a great 2013 start with an "Album of the Year" Grammy in their pocket for the album 'Babel'. Well deserved and well written, I must put them on the list. Their raw, eccentric and free-spirited music gets me through gloomy days. No it's not (only) the beards, but the combination of their acoustic- genre and the soul they put in it.

Mumford and Sons -
Reminder
Album: Babel




This is the first edition of “4 the Love of Music”. This new edition of DiFashionista is a monthly edition, that includes 4 songs that will be released on the 4th of every month. It’s basically me sharing my everyday inspiration. Let me know which ones u liked!
Much Love & Music,

Print-tastic Prabal Gurung Pre-Fall 2013


Prabal Gurung is known for his exception use of prints but this season he has out-done his self - if it's possible. Staying true to his customer while heading in to the modern yet classic direction Prabal stunned in making sure his female customer doesn't get bored. From his A-line mini dress (cover pic) to turning sportswear fabric into wearable red carpet pants. I also have to give him props for his outstanding neon shoes that somehow balance out the use of floral prints. Let's not forget his use of prints in cardigans, biker jacket and coats which totally took over the look in most cases. Some can say his works too busy...but the separate piece also stun by themselves. If you don't believe me, wait for Prabal's good friend Zoe Saldana to show you!

The inspiration behind P.G.'s Pre-Fall 2013 collection are three things that someone other than Prabal couldn't mix together! Well my Fashion-friend try putting together vintage Versace and Versus ads, stills from Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet and pictures of his native Nepal.

Models: Kremi Otashliyska, Tian Yi and Tilda Lindstam.

Here are a couple of my favorite looks:











My Favorite Look
Why is this my favorite look?
This look is simply my favorite because it binds the whole collection together. It has a little piece of the rest of the looks, it has a modern side (mix of prints), a little classic (black and white), it has color and it's not too feminine. This totally describes the Prabal Gurung customer 


Here is the rest of the collection:











Another thing I can truly appreciate about this collection is the fact that there are looks with a certain simplicity about them and then there are looks that totally dare you and then there are best dressed red carpet looks that I can't wait to see...on anyone really!
Much Love,
