 Dresses, skirts, trousers, I want them all. I can't get enough of the maxi trend.

lookbook wonderland.

lookbook has quite recently become an obsession of mine. Yes, I'm not going to lie, I look at it religiously. Yeah it's pretentious but actually a lot of the photography and styling is really inspiring and just lovely to look at. Anyway, I thought I'd put a few pics on here that I have liked enough to save on to my computer (yes, I have a folder dedicated to this on my desktop..) Have a look for yourselves here: www.lookbook.nu

 From the success of the likes of folk singers Laura Marling and Emmy the Great to people like Adele, it would appear that there's a new spawn of female singer-songwriters on the block and that dance routines and miming performances are long gone from the stage. Husky voice and guitar at hand, Lucy Rose is the latest to arrive on the scene finding herself somewhere in the middle of the female indie, pop and folk genres. Still unsigned, you'll have to tune in to her myspace (http://www.myspace.com/lucyrosemusic ) or indeed head down to one of her shows to hear the impressive self-produced tracks including this incredibly catchy song Middle of the Bed:

This is out on the 8th of August as Lucy Rose's debut single! 

  

4?

So I believe number 4 of my Desert Island Disc selection would definitely be Noah and the Whale's Rocks and Daggers.  Why? Because, quite frankly, it's SUCH a good song.
