#2 people can do the most amazing of things

I've been looking for the Kisses album ("The Heart of the Nightlife") since May or June with no success, so in the end I just reached out to iTunes and downloaded the thing. It's been playing on repeat for two weeks now, with pauses just to listen to whatever else is included in here-posted mix, which has dance-around-the-room tracks just as well as the ones that you really notice end for a minute or two, like Flunk's Play.

It was supposed to be a motivational compilation, but didn't really end up that way. Instead, it has proved to be a great soundtrack to all of those activities that don't involve your mind, like unpacking and cleaning up.

Download here. Cover photo: courtesy of Esperanza De La Fuente.

1. Let's Dance - David Bowie

2. Girls Talk - Dave Edmunds

3. Casimir Pulaski Day - Sufjan Stevens

4. One Too Many Mornings - The Chemical Brothers

5. Midnight Runner - Cut Copy

10. Play - Flunk

Margaux Lonnberg aka the superskinny girl in self-designed, barely-there t-shirts. Which seem just perfect. A girl can never have too many of those I-just-rolled-out-of-bed tops. I really like the hair&make-up here, they go so well with the feel of the clothes. My mom would probably recommend a shower here (maybe MacDonald's, too), but since messy and slept in hit the runways with Proenza Schouler etc a couple of seasons ago, showers seem to be so not cool!

You can buy the t-shirts on Lonnberg's website. You will also find more models and photos there, as well as the story behind the project. Or you could always take an old, worn out tee, grab a pair of scissors and let the the magic begin, although the DYI cutting is never as easy as it sounds.

Have a nice Wednesday, it's time to hit the books!

Clemence Poesy for Glamour UK, Febuary.

Photos from here.

This is such a great shot! It just makes you smile. I love the dresses, the colors especially, and the pink fur is magic.

It makes me want to jump onto my bike and/or hang balloons in my room. Or just bake cupcakes, which is the only thing I can acutally do. It is SO cold, but it is winter after all. Not that it makes me happy.

Plus, Clemence is so cute. But Maryna Linchuk in Miss Dior Cherie ad looks pretty, too:
