- Lady Gaga and Katy Perry have both released (well, the songs were leaked, but anyway) new singles that I've listened to more than what could be regarded as a healthy amount! Take a listen to Gaga's Applause and Katy's Roar.
- Victor Hertz has recreated some popular logos in a very amusing, and insanely accurate series called If Corporate Logos Were Honest.
- I was recently introduced to a brilliant film maker by the name of Casey Neistat. The first video of his that I watched was this one, which was commissioned by Nike, with the aim of illustrating the words "Make It Count." Neistat has done the job so creatively, it just fills me with all sorts of inspiration.
- It's been said that people will do crazy things for love, and that's never been more true than in the case of Jessica Walsh and Timothy Goodman, and their 40 Days of Dating.
- Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Cape Town took place a few weeks ago, with more fashion and flair than ever before. Check out some highlights of the event here.
- I absolutely love short films. They're like little slices of video heaven. I came across this short film titled Beyond The City, and created for Stills' Fall Collection 2013 (Dutch fashion brand). It was shot and directed by Annemarieke van Drimmelen, and stars Dutch model, Kim Noorda.
- I've had a link to Taibo Bacar's collection opened in my Safari tabs for a straight week now. It's just so so stunning! Bacar is a Mozambican designer who has drawn inspiration from traditional capulana sarongs to create his gorgeous Autumn/Winter 2013 collection. Pssst... Can I have it?
- I think it's pretty evident when watching Justin Timberlake's brilliant VMA performance that he is back in the music scene with a vengeance! This past Sunday, he performed a medley of his greatest hits, as well as a surprise performance with 'N Sync! Watch it here.
(Gee, I hadn't realised how many videos this post consists of... Oh well, they're all great, and all worth watching!)
So, yet again, I've missed a Lovely Links fortnightly deadline. I think that from now on, instead of pressuring myself into searching every surface of the web to reach the deadline with truly mediocre links, I'll scrap the deadline entirely and wait for truly LOVELY links to find their way to me in due time. It only makes sense, right?
In other news, here in sunny South Africa, it's a wee-bit on the chilly side... As a result, I'll be spending my weekend re-reading The Outsiders (I'm obsessed) and watching the new season of Suits (Eeeeek!), while sipping on oceans of tea. Sounds like a plan!
