Thursday, May 16, 2013 Guest Edit: Épique Moi
Anthea Lau is the adorable Sydney-based blogger behind épique moi, a dizzying visual diary of her runway romps and eclectic personal style. Here, she shows us some love by putting her own kaleidoscopic twist on a few of our latest lookbook images (we’re currently on the hunt for frames BTW) and even plays dress up in head-to-toe Nasty Gal. All we can say is, the feeling’s mutual.

Studio Soundtracks:
Random Access Memories
Climb aboard Daft Punk’s sonic starship as the futuristic duo unveil a mix of throwback grooves and trippy dance tracks with their latest album Random Access Memories. It almost serves as a f*ck you to the overindulged electronic sounds on blast at clubs by revisiting the beginnings of disco, paying homage to legend Giorgio Morodor (the mastermind writer/producer behind Donna Summer, Bowie and Debbie Harry classics to name a few). Throw in one particularly addictive ’70s-influenced beat from Pharrell, appropriately titled Get Lucky, into the mix for a time-traveling journey that spans from early funk and disco to dance tracks infused with rock, pop and house. Though the album officially drops 5/21, you can stream it on iTunes now, so get ready to break out the glitter platforms and we’ll meet you on the dance floor…
Wednesday, May 15, 2013 Contests: And The Winners Are…
There are no words. Let’s just say we were totally blown away by how many of you let down your hair and got weird with us. Like REALLY weird. Amazingly weird.

Tuesday, May 14, 2013 Right Now: Color Coded
Just the thought of fruity popsicle hues has us craving summer in a big way, so naturally our closets have been overflowing with chromatics lately. Colorblocking has saturated the runway and streets from ’60s minis to ’80s power suits, leaving us free to draw from decades’ worth of inspo to create our own technicolor combinations. So whether you mix it up with loud prints or rock every shade of the rainbow at once, it’s time to give into your color crush.
