Sweet buys – October

Tuesday, October 26th, 2010

I haven’t been shopping for quite a while, so I decided to head out this weekend to snag some sweet stuff! I’m particularly proud of the boots from M&S. Best thing I’ve ever bought there. The bacon, chicken and cheddar toasted sandwich from the cafe is a close second.

1. Chinos from Topman Salisbury

2. Dakine Microlink Helipack from Goomama

3. Brown Leather Boots from M&S

4. Gin and tonic. We got loose.

Janelle Monae – Archandroid

janell monae

Can’t get enough of this little beauty at the moment. Janelle Monae is unlike anything I’ve heard before – part Shirly Bassey, part Andre 3000, and 100% android (or so she claims…). The album is a great listen from start to finish, but the highlights for me are (2) Dance or Die – featuring Saul Williams, (7) Tightrope – Featuring Big Boi, and (17) Say You’ll Go.

The music video for Tightrope is stylish, monochromatic and highly addictive. I just wish I could pull out some of those dance moves in The Chapel on a Saturday night. Wait, actually… Salisbury’s not ready for that.

My favourite album of the year so far – 9/10
