If I Could Pick Any Song......

It would be......

Stay High (Habits Remix)

By 

Tove Lo ft. Hippie Sabotage

Bio: Ebba Tove Elsa Nilsson, aka Tove Lo,

is a Swedish pop singer-songwriter as well as musician.

At 26, she has released her first EP 'Truth Serum'

and has written songs for many artists including

Icona Pop. The Stay High habits remix charted at

number 6 in the UK. 

I was recommended this song by a friend and at

first I wasn't sure about it. But after hearing it for 

the second time, I ironically became addicted.

It starts with an intriguingly repetitive

'Oh-oh' and after 15 seconds launches into an intense

beat. The lyrics are remixed to repeat and bounce around

the inside of your head - truly amazing stuff!

Tove Lo sings with desperation at needing

'something to numb the pain'. 

You can feel the hurt.

There's also the original version which is just as good but

has a slower tempo and smaller beat although the lyrics are 

just as smart and quirky (I eat my dinner in my bathtub/

then I go to sex clubs)

Crazy, I know!

Have a good evening,

Awesome Idea #6

Hello All,

Have you had a good week so far? 

(I know I have!)

So today I wanted to show you another Awesome

Idea, I saw this and just thought it was 

very cool and extremely clever:

I think its very clever of the designer

to incorporate the idea of imperfections 

into a piece of simple design. 

Usually, design is very clean, smart and elegant, 

so I thought that this was a great twist on 

that perception. 

This weekend, I'm finally going to the photography

exhibition at the Natural History Museum!

Plus, I might be hitting Brick Lane again - which would 

be awesome! It means I can show you this 

beautifully hidden gem on Brick Lane.

All will be unveiled...

Love always,

Just found these quirky little leggings

from though?

Have a lovely evening,
