a fashion writer's fantasy musings
I have written about my recent enjoyment of cosmic horror before, in John Langan’s The Fisherman, I highly recommend. Though this is the first time I’ve seriously dived into H.P. Lovecraft’s work.
Mention of muscles and sinew, nerve and connection feel particularly real to me these days; I recently incurred a pinched nerve injury, which has debased my regular routine and sleeping pattern.
The allure of the cosmic horror genre has sunk its creepy claws (or tentacles?) into my reading habits. The origins of my new obsession stems from watching Jordan Peele’s recent horror/sci-fi feature Nope a few weeks ago, during a visit home by my chef brother.
Britney Spears might be my favourite pop artist of all time, but Mandy Moore’s eponymous sophomore album will always be the first album I bought with my own money.
In my quest to find something to unwind with post the bulbous open world of Guerilla Games’ Horizon Forbidden West, which held my attention for 80+ hours, I needed a compact experience.
It’s been about ten years since I last attended a fashion week. Prior to my decade plus-long career in the retail industry, I actually had the privilege of working as a fashion journalist.
Thankfully, I do not have the coronavirus. Unfortunately, and I place the blame solely on my aging 30-something body, the common flu has cleaved right through my entire weekly schedule.
After years of teasing their return to music, South Korean girl group 2NE1 reunited in high energy and dramatics at Coachella 2022, a mind-melting surprise for fans everywhere.
Any millennial pop music aficionado growing up on a diet of 2000’s MTV, celebrity culture and the early blogosphere will know that a pop artist appearing in a barrage of fashion magazine covers is camouflaged marketing strategy.
Being that JRPGs are my favourite genre of game, I’d be remiss to not yearn for the nostalgic comfort of the humble town location, particularly in the day-to-day malaise of working culture.
Since the inception of the Final Fantasy series in 1987, Yoshitaka Amano is a name synonymous with the franchise. The lifeblood of Final Fantasy has roots in Amano’s work; his distinctive style evoked romantic worlds and characters with the gentle, empty expressions.
In the advent of Britney Spears’ freedom from her abusive conservatorship in November 2021, she’s made multiple references in her infamous Instagram account about her desires to return to music.
