Pyjama Trend

The moment I think I like the Pyjama trend someone decides to look stupid in it and changes my mind. It doesn't look on everyone and I think styling and fit is key with a trend like this. In my opinion a trend is only good if you can look back and think you didn't look like a fool.

MY FAVOURITES ARE LOOKS WORN BY Alexa Chung + Sofia Coppola.

If I had no choice this is what I would wear - not all pieces are pyjamas but they could pass for it

Bare Necessities

Solange isn't the only keeping up with the 1940/50's exposed midriff trend that has been around for years, but is finally making it's mark on the catwalks, red carpet and in editorials in a big way.

Note: Belly buttons should be out of sight - this isn't SJP circa 1990's Sex + the city trend.
For those like me that aren't too confident with exposing your stomach area there are options like dresses with sheer layering and cut-outs that only show a peek of midriff. So we can all have a piece of midriff action- yay! Bare in mind (ha!) that the fitted/tailored/structured pieces look best.

Rihanna streetstyle

Her style has been all over the place at the moment and it seems that with a new hairstyle/colour comes a new fashion direction- but from time to time she wears something that catches my eye.
She has an amazing collection of accessories and her nails are always on point!

Album Review: Talk that Talk

Before reviewing an album, I like to listen to it for a week; so this week I played it loud, on a bus with headphones, in my bathroom, on a run, before going to a party and in my friends car. At first I really didn't like the album and non of the songs stood out to me. 1 week later, it's an OK album. There's something about Rihanna that's Midas-esque! The girl could sing "blah blah bluuu" for 3 mins and it's a hit, she's not the best singer but she makes songs her own, Rihanna-esque. Her previous albums 'Good Girl Gone Bad' + 'Rated R' showed a darker Rihanna taking more risks with her music then Loud was not a great album as I thought it was all over the place with its message. 'Talk That Talk' is a typical Rihanna album with sex and love at it's core. Productions and song-writing is what makes this album what it is, she has a good team behind her. The tracks are filled with euro-dance beats and island flavour making this a "great dancing in the club with the girls" or just bedroom music. I don't like it when Rihanna's music is categorised as R&B because she's a pop star with pop tracks. It's an OK pop album, but not Rihanna's best. It feels rushed so the quality has suffered. I haven't finished listening to the last album then all the sudden, there is another one. Slow down.  6/10
