Taper Jean Girl kills me

I saw Kings of Leon last night and the show was amazing! I've never seen them before and was slightly dubious because I wasn't such a fan of their newer stuff, but they were fantastic and so full of energy - I drank Becks from plastic cups and danced my face off. Of course it helps that Caleb is so handsome and full of Southern charm...my only qualm is that they played The 02 arena which is definately my least favourite venue in Town. I would love to see them play somewhere more intimate like Brixton Academy but I guess they're too 'big' for that now? Ah well.

I would love to post my own photos but I don't have any since my camera is broken! The shutter got stuck last night - never buy your camera whilst away on Holiday abroad!

Video Vixens

On the tube yesterday afternoon listening to The Virgins album (which I found kind of disappointing compared to their E.P - maybe it's just because I prefer anything that sounds like it was recorded in a bathroom?) I couldn't help but think of the video for 'Rich Girls', which saw Behati Prinsloo take a starring role...





This made me think about my other favourite Model + Music moment. Kate Moss has done quite a few videos for White Stripes, Primal Scream, Marianne Faithfull, among others. This one, directed by Sofia Coppola (I didn't know!) is my favourite - who knew Mossy was so um, multi-talented?

Bruised Knees New Dress

This weekend I went dancing in my favourite shoes, had homemade soup and cheesecake, wished I was at the Isle of Wight festival (Pixies!), ordered Pamela Des Barres' I'm With the Band, listened to Ladyhawke, Wavves and the new Arctic Monkeys single, and painted my nails on a blanket in the sun.
