Celebrating 5 Decades of British cool Goodwood Vintage Festival

Looking forward this year seems to thrive around being British. And what better way to celebrate it than with a vintage music festival on a truly breathtaking site of outstanding natural beauty in West Sussex.

Vintage at Goodwood will bring together lovers of the music, fashions, food and lifestyles of the decades that gave Britain its creative heritage. Visual, responsible, aural and sensual, a big family dressing up box, a collectors dream and a joyous creative feast for all ages. featuring the leading DJs, bands, collectors, purveyors of vintage clothing and vintage vinyl from each decade. So get your tipi booked and come glamping! See info here, it will be on from 13th-15th August :)

What, free music?! Yes please...

Apart from having some very tasty items in their collection that we buy when the pay cheque roles in, Quiksilver women have launched a free music download to support young creative female talent :) Its not often nowadays that you get a freebie so take a look here

Have One on Me

Joanna Newsom is probably one of my favourites, she has such a quirky yet wonderfully beautiful voice. I have only just bought the album so can't comment fully but from what I have heard its pretty sweet...here are a couple of songs from her current album and a golden oldie...

I went to see the XX last month, they were rad... not just because I got given a VIP pass with free pints of red wine all night but because they sounded even better than on the album.  Heres their new video...



Also Neon lights have done a pretty brilliant remix of Crystalized...

Masked Ball

The Masked Ball has snuck up on us this year and us shapes are in a dilema about what to wear; 3 days to go and still no outfit in sight! We've been having a look on the net for inspiration....

The Girl on the Wall

Its Sunday afternoon, time to get a cup of tea and watch the delights of Jean Baggot... she's a wise lady.

Zebra

I can't stop listening to the new album Teen Dream by Baltimore band Beach House.

Zebra is one of my favourites...
