BEST VIDEOS of 2011

2011-12-25T14:06:00.000-08:00

Hello everyone!

So unfortunately, I don't blog much anymore...nowadays I'm keeping busy and harassing my facebook wall shit loads. But I thought it was worth making a post about my favorite music videos of the year 2011. These top 5 all contain great fashion, cinematography, creativity, sillyiness, epicness.

I personally believe the winners are, such as.....

5. Party - Beyonce

Link to video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWCwc1_sYMY&ob=av2e

Synopsis: Beyonce being hipster and hanging out with normal hipster type ppl among others, whos minds are obviously not blown by the presence of a megastar @ a BBQ on a lovely summer's day.

Beyonce's looking cute & hot as usual, everyone is wearing rad clothes, and theres cool ppl who-are-way-cooler-than-you but HEY! its a Beyonce party, so EVERYone is dancing and having fun at least. AND there's a cool albino guy....I mean what more could you want?!

4. Blow - Ke$ha

Link to video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFWX0hWCbng&ob=av2e

Synopsis: What a fun & silly plot of a music video. Humans with unicorn heads, rainbow lazer guns, James Van Der Beek, the more random the better. Ke$ha even dares to take a shower and straightens her hair looking like a brand new sultry popstar! But don't get it twisted, its still Ke$ha....the reason I love this video? Cause it's so unapologetically ridiculous. Its pop music, chillax!

Besides...."she's taken over. Get used too it!" TOLD YA.

3. Teenage Dream - Katy Perry

Link to video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98WtmW-lfeE&ob=av2e

Synopsis: The cinematography is just that - dreamy. Katy decides to give it a rest with all the gimmicks and makes a video thats tasteful, hipster, cute, fun, young and that's ultimately real and honest. Mrs. Brand frolicks with daYUM hot model (ohmy!not russell?) and goes "all the way" with him, without her drag queen make-up (so cute).

Thumbs up to the French director Yoann Lemoine who also directed the cinematic

Lana Del Rey's Born to Die music video!!

2. Marry The Night - Lady Gaga
Link to video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cggNqDAtJYU&ob=av2e

Synopsis: Talk about shoving 50 different videos, films, stories into ONE video. Jeeeeeeeeeeeeez! Gaga really is lazy and unambitious. This video is filled with so much I swear I could write a thesis about the fucking video. It's insane. In this video Lady Gaga really tells us her story through all her trials and tribulations. Rejection after rejection! Her madness! Her insecurites! Her drive and dream to be a star! Her decision to marry the night!..... And how in the end she got that record deal from Interscope that catapulted her succesful career. The music video at times reminds me of Girl Interrupted (she'd SO play the Britanny Murphy character, RIP), that low-budget Madonna made for TV movie I saw 3 summers ago about her journey pre-fame, Black Swan, Fame, Showgirls (the non-bitchy version) and Flashdance. This Lady does not like to stick to one story, style...you name it. It's like she threw up all her influences and her ego and said "Here world! THIS is my art." And you better fucking call it performance art, cause she's an artist.

The best part: the fierce choregraphy in the dance room - work it gurl! and her dancing in the rain with the fire. Apparently she revealed in an interview that the rain was unexpected, and the director and her crew said it was a health & saftey risk. What does Gaga say?

"Shoot that shit."

Priceless.

And the winner is....

1. We Found Love - Rihanna:

Link to video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tg00YEETFzg&ob=av2e

Synopsis: DUH! Despite the fact that the lyrics are fricking repetitive, who gives? It's all about the Calvin Harris music production, the build up is awesome, way to make an annoying trend (yes, dance music i'm talking to you) feel fresh and fun again. So, the music video....its Trainspotting! its Requim for a dream! it's Rihanna looking hot with a guy that coincidentally looks a lot like Chris Brown (but hotter). It's Rihanna wearing some of her coolest outfits and fucking around and being in a destructive relationship (sound familiar?)...its like Sid & Nancy, Ikke & Tina, Bobby & Whitney, Blake & Amy, Kate & Pete, , Rihanna &...basically,I could go on. Its beautiful, its ugly, its high, its low.

Its EVERYTHING.

Have a happy new year everyone!!!! 2012 baby...u betta since it might be the last one ;)

Hello!!!!!!!!!!!!

inspiration:

Just wanted to say a HELLLO to all my TASTYTHREADS followers.

I know its been ages. I miss doing this. But it consumes too much of my time. I have free internet on my phone so might consider doing a tumblr or something. But my main priority is writing music, getting my band together, studying music therapy, spending time with family & friends, skateboarding (finally!) and kissing cute boys. Fashion blogging is fun, but there's just more important things in my life then spending hours in front of a computer and posting pictures of clothes i can't afford (no offense to all the lovely fashion bloggers in da world.) I still love checking out all my favorite blogs AND even checking out my old posts - its like my diary! And I just want to thank you all for following and your comments. It's so amazing that people actually care about this blog other then myself LOL. All the best to you all. Might stop by to post on how my music is going (I want to make this thing global!) and if I decide to do a music & tastythreads tumblr, you'll be the first to know!!!!

LOTS OF LOVE!!!!

I don't really know who she is..but her outfits are v. interesting:

1) simple black little dress and wickedly unique 3D tights.

2) denim and leather

3) good mix of prints done superbly well, classy even.

4) this makes me want to buy a maxi velvet dress and hot pink sexy heels

5) i am dying for those glasses. she looks like Marina from Marina & the Diamonds here. Awesome.

6) Mixing cosy sweaters with spring/summer dress, good way to end the winter season :)

P.S: On a sorta-but-not-really different topic, was so excited to see Erin Wasson on America's Next Top Model in the latest episode! She was showin' off her just as awesome jewelery line...Was so stoked :D there's some hot & fierce models this season.

Do it like the Scandinavians: in monochrome!

I'm more of a colourful girl myself. But every now and then, I like the idea of wearing just black or some greys. I'm also lovin' the crop top, that is back in the trends, i've always wanted one! I bought two crop top these past few weeks: one simple in grey, and a Nirvana band tee in dark grey. All I need now are some high waist pants/skirts - to rock them sophisticatedly (is that even a word?)

New Young Pony Club - Lost Girl

I used to think this song and melody was so boring. So I though it wasn't worth posting.

Ryan Adams & The Cardinals - Kisses Start The Wars

My fave song from the new album III/IV.

Buy song:

tasty crush & dude of the moment: Michael Pitt

2010-12-24T08:24:00.000-08:00

(source: tfs)

The first time I saw Michael Pitt was as Michelle Williams' love interest in Dawson Creek's back in the day (okay like in 2000). All wide-eyed, naive and hopelessly in love with M.W's character Jen - so sweet! Fast-forward, now Michael Pitt's become the golden indie boy, all pretty faced and embarking on obscure and intriguing roles such as the one he played in The Dreamers, or a little more recently in the Gus Van Sant's Last Days as an inspired-Kurt Cobain rockstar. Personally, I didn't really get it...hell, I hardly get these Gus Van Sant movies...but there would be certain angles where his resemblance to Kurt Cobain was pretty damn astonishing.

P.S: Be sure to check out Delirious - my fave movie of his :)

Ryan Adams & The Cardinals - My Favorite Song

I am so in LOVE with the new Ryan Adams, I could go on....My favorite albums of his are Rock N Roll & Love is Hell EP so his new effort with the Cardinals III/IV is a total blessing, as it's like a mesh of those two albums :)

I ♥ his Julian Casablancas-esque swagger in this song.

Brandon Flowers - I Came Here To Get Over You

Why are my favoite songs always bonus tracks?
I don't listen to much Bowie...but isn't this SO D.B?? Am I wrong? It sounds like the perfect 80s Karaoke song...even though it was probably written last year or so. I love the bit where he sings all Bob Dylan like: "lights are burning like keroseeeeeeeeene" :)

Leighton Meester has taken note from Coco and decided to wear a rather awesome masculine outfit. This outfit is everwhere for good reason...at first it leaves u perplexed on whether you like it or not...then u realize DAMN! You love love it :) I watched the movie Coco Before Chanel last week...so of course Coco was the first person I thought of when I saw this daring outfit (and of course Diane Keaton, Annie Hall anyone? Yea, I know super obvious).

Brandon Flowers - Crossfire

So yeah, I know I'm like ridicously late to hop on the Brandon Flowers train, but I've been listening to his solo album Flamingo and I love LOVE it!

But it's okay, I forgive her.

I'm more of a messy hair, slightly sloppy clothes kinda girl. But I can appreciate her style. I admit, I was the girl who tuned into The Hills, just so I could see Lauren & co.'s cute outfits too-perfect hair & make-up. She's also a good source of inspiration for office/work wear or interviews. Whenever I wanna be less rockin' roll (which is rare) and more lady-like or professional, she's my go-to girl.

Rihanna (feat. Drake) - What's My Name?

Lovin' this TRACK! It's like the new RUDE BOY, at first you think it's totally a mediocre song, and then it creeps up on you and its soooo addictive! I really hope this song becomes a number 1 HIT and people notice the POP GENIUS of this little gem, as it could be well underrated. However, the fact that even MY MOM likes it (really?!)...makes me think it could be smash!!

AVAILABLE TO BUY SOON!

such a great outfit! I love how model Jessica Stam wears such a brezzy simple blouse & pants, such simple sophistication. The docs bring awesome edge.

I'm so in love with my cheap wannabe-docs from H&M (they look similar to Stam's), but unfortunately their getting destroyed cause i've worn them for a year. Time to invest on some quality real leather boots.

So the other day I bought some lovely army inspired tastythreads from H&M. One being an almost see-through olive green shirt, and the other; olive green skinny jeans with two pockets in the front and gold zippers at the bottom kinda like Daria's here but with pockets on the thigh area too (actually, i think its modeled on this post, see the pants, it's the girl on the right)! Really happy with that find as it was on my wishlist for Fall/Winter 2010-11.

Above are a collection of pics on how you can wear the lovely army green or olive green - however you call it. I've been collecting these for a while so there's quite a lot!

love those pants...she inspired me to buy a pair of skinnys with zippers at the bottom, yesterday! It fits very much the same.

Kings of Leon - Pyro

I've been listening a lot to the Kings latest effort. Unfortunately, I'm not so thrilled as I was with their previous albums. They are some songs I like, like this one, but nothing I'm totally crazy in love with. To me their newest album is like an average version of 'Only By The Night'. I hate saying that, but its truly how I feel about it.

What do you think of the new Kings of Leon?

So inspired by alice's outfits here: leather skirt n plaid. see through top, wear t-shirt as dress with leather jacket, ribbed tights and cute girly dress. ♥♥
...and you know i will be copying her hairstyle again once i get my weave back on again :P

Sky Ferreira...and her weird beauty really intrigues me; her messy hair put together with red lipstick really gets to me.i also love when she can be a little more put together for photoshoots but still look like herself (note: that green cardigan and cool silver necklase is dope!).

n guess what; FYI: they both have brazillian roots in them!

Nouvelle Vague - Too Drunk To Fuck (The Dead Kennys cover)
