Guess who's going to be the musical guest on Saturday Night Live for the January 14th show? That's right, Lana Del Rey. Amazing, I love her.

Here's her new song Off to The Races

Kiehl's Lip Balm

I know this isn't the cutest thing to be sharing with all of you, but I have to confess... I have the worst chapped lips of everyone I know, year after year.

I've tried it all; Burts Bees, Blistex and Labello, but no matter what I do, I always end up with cracked lips. Until now...

Kiehl's Lip Balm is the answer to my dry lip's prayers. I picked mine up at Holt Renfrew for $8.50 and my lips have been super soft ever since.

This isn't a gloss and it's not scented, so this is one beauty trick you can share with the man in your life too.

Plus, at under $10 a pop, Kiehl's Lip Balm is officially the stocking stuffer of the season. That is, of course, assuming you can't spring the half a million for this...

NY is Killing Me

I have to take a break from Drake. You know what they say about too much of a good thing, right?

So keeping in the Drake spirit, I'm all over Jamie xx. Subpop records released their staff's top 20 of 2011 lists and it's no surprise that Jamie xx and Gil Scott Heron make multiple appearances.

So without further ado, here is NY is Killing Me.



Also, completely off topic, but I love Grammar Girl.

Versace for H&M Has Arrived!!

What a morning! I'm not even sure how it happened. I woke up, took London out, was thinking "should I go?" unsure if I was ready to let my wallet face the temptation. Before I knew it, I was at H&M. 

I arrived around 9am, thinking I would just walk by and see if there was anything even left over. Long story short, I ended up being ninth in a line, standing outside H&M waiting for the lucky bracelet holders go be finished with the clothes. We were all eyeing the dresses and accessories that we hoped they wouldn't take first. 

Finally around 12:30pm, it was our turn. 

Lineup Behind Us

I ended up with the red flower ring, and the black dress I've been talking about nonstop. Only problem is, when I returned home and actually tried on the dress, it was a little (more like a lot) too tight. So I'm going to go back in a few days and see if I can exchange it.

Sample Sale!

I recently blogged about the pair of Zeha Berlin boots which I have been seriously coveting, however, the price tag has kept me from actually acquiring the boots. Funny how that works, right?

Well it would seem the fashion gods heard my cries; AM Collections is hosting a sample sale starting today and lasting until the 27th.

The sale will include various Zeha Berlin's, John Smedley sweaters, Mona Aletheia jewellery and some gorgeous Aunts & Uncles bags, all at a serious markdown from the retail price.

Stop by their studio at suite 200, 1026 Davie street (directly above Celebrities) and get your shop on!

PS - I know I have been going on an on about the boots, but there's something about the Zeha Berlin Oxford shoes that I just keep coming back to. I don't suppose I could find a way to buy both...? I mean who really needs electricity anyway?

I'm So Proud Of You

Drake Drake Drake, we're so proud of you. Everyone is loving the album Take Care. Myself included.

The songs that stand out, in my opinion, are Crew Love, Make Me Proud, Take Care and Over My Dead Body. I haven't heard a ton of people talking about Marvin's Room, but it's also in my regular rotation. I'm especially loving the second half of the song. Pitchfork explains the story behind Marvin's Room, and it's worth a read through.

Ok so back to Take Care, which is a collaboration with Rihanna. If it sounds familiar, that's because it is. The song is produced by Jamie xx, and also borrows elements from his original version of the song I'll Take Care of You. It's a goodie.

If you haven't heard the entire new album yet, I highly recommend you do. Crew Love seems to be getting a lot of buzz this week, so take a listen below and let me know your thoughts.
