Inspiration of the Day: Vampire Weekend – Giving Up the Gun
It’s that time again for one of my non-sequitur posts…and by the way, I (heart) Vampire Weekend.
A million extra points for the Jake Gyllenhaal cameo.
Inspiration of the Day: Owen Pallett – Lewis Takes off His shirt
This is one of the songs they used at the Carolina Herrera show, and I keep going back to it now. Not the typical stuff I listen to, but I kinda like it.

Inspiration of the Day: Hindi Zahra – Beautiful Tango
Hindi Zahra
Berber singer, Hindi Zahra’s voice is incredibly beautiful. I’ve been getting lost in her songs lately, so I had to share.
‘Influenced by the great Maghreb singers and the Egyptian divas, Hindi was brought up on traditional Berber music and also the local rock’n’roll her musician uncles played. Other early influences were Ali Farka Touré’s Sahara blues and the folk sounds of Ismaël Lô. The young Hindi also listened to African-American music (“anything with a groove”), as well as Bob Marley.’ - RFI Musique
Inspiration of the Day: Audrey Tautou
This should be more like “inspiration of life” because that’s how much I adore French actress Audrey Tautou. Not only is she beautiful, she’s a mix of grace and elegance that all shines through the sometimes whimsical characters she plays on the big screen. It’s no surprise Chanel picked her as the most recent face for their iconic Chanel No 5 perfume.
