Tie It Around My Waist!

Not only was it common knowledge, but it was also something that was embedded into your existence at a young age: If you don’t wanna carry it, just tie it around your waist! Sometimes, this was the best idea in the entire world as all the kids did it for +10 cool points and +20 practicality points. However, at other times…well…this “trend” proved to be pretty controversial (as the lovers matched the naysayers). Either way, the sweater-around-waist trend is back with a bang, so let’s take the time to celebrate it’s homecoming with a smile!!! read more…

MIXTAPE: Unexpected Collaborations

Mixing and matching is always encouraged in the fashion world, but how well does the tick play out in music? Can the brash lyrics of a garage band play nice with Afro-pop-laced rhymes of a reggae band? 2013’s edition of The Coach taught us that two heads (or sounds) are certainly better than one. First The XX blew our minds when they invited Solange on stage to collaborate on a cover of Aaliyah’s “Hot Like Fire”. The rhythmic indulgence ensued when French indie rockers Phoenix invited R&B heavyweight R. Kelly to join them onstage for a duet on Kelly’s longtime classic “Ignition”. In honor of these unpredictable duets we’ve rallied up 17 collabs from our wildest dreams. Embrace the unexpected with our soundtrack to your Humpday shenanigans. read more…

MOSSTAPE: Happy Birthday Kate Moss!


Photo: Corrine Moss for The Face, July 1990

So you think January 16th is pretty insignificant, do you?  SCOFF.  First of all, it’s International Hot & Spicy Food Day (I know, say no more, right?).  Second of all, and arguably more important, it marks the day Mizz Kate Moss turns 39 (insert emoticon of disbelief)!

From famous-izing politically-incorrect & awful terms (hey ‘heroin chic’) to over-hyping Supreme t-shirts, Kate Moss has pretty much avoided pop culture irrelevancy since the inception of her career at age 14.  Cut to 25 years later and we still love this gorge lass from London.  To commemorate Moss’ supamodel birth, we’ve compiled a list of her song-bombing!!  In both music video and lyrics (ugh, so versatile).  Now, grab that spicy burrito and get STRUTTING. read more…
