No Light, No Light- Florence+The Machine

Florence+The Machine’s new video for No Light, No Light came out recently and if you’ve read my previous post about Florence, it was basically a plead to her to not wear a long-sleeved long dress in different variations because we see her in that all the time! To further prove my point, her dress in the new video-

THE SAME THING. Girl, I know you’re capable of dressing not looking like a grandma all the time. YOU’RE ONLY 25. Did this surprise anyone as much as it did me? YES, because she dresses like she’s waiting for her deathbed!!!

You should take advantage of the time you can still dress like this.

Did you forget that you’re friends with Karl Lagerfeld? Use those connections!

Shake It Out- Florence + the Machine

After talking about Florence + The Machine’s vinyl cover for Shake It Out shot by Karl Lagerfeld, it is only natural that I talk about the Shake It Out video. Let me start off by saying, I LOVE her album Ceremonials. I can’t even handle it.

For this second single, Florence takes us to a strange, fantasy, slightly creepy masquerade party.

Honestly, I’m not quite sure what’s going on in this video but I do know that Florence, you need to “shake up” (pun intended) your wardrobe for this video! I know you’re a classy lady but that doesn’t mean you have to wear the same dress in different styles all the time! In a music video, especially; we want to be visually stimulated and we can look and be interested in a long sleeved dress for so long.

Your friend is Karl Lagerfeld. Enough said.

 

 

Florence+Karl Lagerfeld Shake It Out

A little late reporting on this news and a bit of a digression from my usual posts but it’s about probably the biggest of all fashion people- Uncle Karl Lagerfeld and my current obsession, Florence + the Machine.  Florence has been somewhat of a muse/bff to Karl lately, appearing at his Chanel runway show and collaborating on a Vogue Japan cover but it DID surprise me when he shot her for an exclusive vinyl for her single “Shake It Out.” We don’t really see Karl dabbling with the music industry in any way but I was pleasantly surprised, of course when two of my favorite things come together. Obviously in Chanel, she wears a white lace dress offset by her red hair and red lips looking a bit moody in typical Lagerfeld fashion.  I’ve been seeing a number of Karl photoshoots lately and a bit of research shows me he’s been quite the photographer for some time now. You learn something new every day.
