 Fashion events. I love them. They usually mean a few things: - free flowing booze - free catering - free theatre ...theatre in the form of " Zoolander Live". And when you're the DJ you have top bill spot. The Belstaff event was slightly a different affair though ... Leather clad, stylish men and women poured into the store. It's preview time! A more accessible version of a catwalk, when the latest threads get laid down and the fashion elite get first dibs.  Thanks to Belstaff for dressing me up in the best red leather jacket I've ever laid eyes on. Tracklist: - Liquid Spirit (Claptone remix) - Gregory Porter - Heart of Glass ( Oliver and Tee Mike B remix) - Blondie - Fade Out Lines (Marcapasos remix) - The Avener

Vogue. The bible of fashion. The benchmark for style. To be invited to a party hosted by Vogue, you know you're in the circle of the elite. To be playing for a party hosted by Vogue - well, it's an honour. Vogue's bi-annual fashion week party held at the iconic Borchardt restaurant was the setting for yesterday's party. I played along with one half of the Felder + Felder twins - Dani.   After a sound check and quick bite at the nearby Bocca di Bacco (George Clooney's favourite haunt we later find out), it was show time. Dressed in matching FELDER + FELDER prints, our heels were strapped on and ready to rock the DJ booth. One thing I have to credit to the Germans ... no two.
It was hard to concentrate on the mixing. Of course, it was highly probable half of them were gay. I have a tendency to rate gay men.The night went on to the early hours of the morning, champagne flowed and Prada heels were swung off.  Sample track list : " No Eyes (MYNGA remix) " - Claptone " Tainted Love (DANK remix) - Soft Cell "Feel You" - Tapetenweschel "Time to get physical (Botan remix)" - Nice7 "Talkin bout" - Mees Dierdop With thanks to FELDER + FELDER for the dress. Headphones by Urbanears. All round fun by the team at Borchardt and Vogue Germany.
It's the fifth week running now of Music in the Library - held in the The Club area of Cafe Royal Hotel. A weekly event that brings together The Club members along with their guests, allowing a chance to catch up and cause some mid-week mischief. Groove along to the latest in deep house and indie music over a classy cocktail in this cosy corner, hidden from bustling Central London yet convenient to stay till the end. It's on every Wednesday, 8:30pm till late upstairs in the Library of The Club at Cafe Royal Hotel. Chic and keen to join? Not a member? Reach out at [email protected] w 
 || In conjunction with Frieze Art Week in London, Baroness Ariane de Rothschild hosted the opening reception of "So British" by Thierry Bruet at the beautiful Alice Temperley store in Mayfair, London. The exhibition was a collection of paintings amongst the elegant glamour of the Temperley couture collection. ||  || I was glitzed up with a tight fitting silk dress from the Winter 14 collection. It had flower motifs that were strikingly similar to folk art from the Lowicki region known as wycinanki (paper cuttings). I wore this with a gold vintage Egyptian necklace and pointed black heels. || The beauty of the store, clothes and people deserved a refined set list. A whisper told me that Alice loved all things Hotel Costes. Having played there during my months in Paris, I was pretty well introduced to the style. Stephane Pompougnac is a master at finding and producing lounge tunes that don't sound like you're stuck in a stuff elevator.
Track list: "Don't turn it off" - 40 Thieves feat. Qzen "Tears dry on their own (Al Usher Remix)" - Amy Winehouse "Yes baby yes" - Mo'Horizons "Don't let go" - Pacha Massive "My darling" - Ralph Myerz Special thanks to the talented Sabrina of Sabrina Priano Make-up for making me look all dazzling. |
