I am in love - Jennifer Lara

今日は寒かったけどとても晴れていて、春が来るのを感じた。

そしてchillな音楽を聴きたくなった。

Jennifer Lara
Kingston出身のStudio Oneを代表するfemale vocalistです。

ロンドンを思い出させる音楽。
Kingsland road近くで踊った日を今でもたまに思い出してちょっと涙もろくなることもある。そういう時がけっこうやばいです。色んな意味で。感慨深すぎて、渦に落ちてく感じ。

Bricklaneの裏にあるfarmに通っていたときに出会ったジャマイカの男の人は音楽作って歌ってるって言ってたな。彼も平日の昼間からfarmのお手伝いに来てたからもしや無職？と謎だったけどとってもフレンドリーで話好きで私もっと仲良くなればよかったと後悔した。彼の音楽聴いてみたかった。


写真のStoke newingtonは結構好きで、わざわざこの通りのButcherやGroceryへ食材を買いに自転車こいでいってたなあ。角にあるサイダーがあるパブもおしゃれ！

なぜこの場所を思い出したかというとこのちょっと上品な場所にもいくつかのvenueがあって、心地よいdiscoとかreggae で踊ったなあと思い出したから。

またいつかロンドンにいける日を目指して明日もがんばろう。おやすみなさい。

Woman in Paris

Cherry Blossom GirlのAlixやMiss PandoraのLouise、

他にもいろんな国にたくさん憧れのブロガーがいて

おしゃれでかわいくて次から次へと新しい人が出てくるけど

特にこの二人はキュートで好き

つい先日AlixもLouiseも別々に日本に来ていて

二人とも下北のネコカフェに行ってたみたい

インスタグラムによると。

またパリに行きたい。

昔行ったときは映画に出てくるロケ地に行きたいってゆう気持ちで訪れたので

ファッションの視点から楽しんでないし、また行きたい。

コレットだけにはちゃっかり行ってみたよ

ロンドンとパリはファッションスタイルが全然違うけど

みんなhistoricalに着こなしたりルーツをよく知っていて

さらにアレンジがうまくてかっこいい。

二人だいすき♪

これからもっとおしゃれがんばろっと

I baked a whole strawberry cheesecake on the day before Valentine's day!

It's slightly wired that decorative cheesecake though I made it better than expected!

How did you spend your lovely day?

gig -annie the clumsy-

I know it is so bad of me that almost a year since I took this video.

She is an adorable Japanese girl who really likes singing, creating something by herself, dresses funny way like a character in the films, also knows lots of geeky british TV shows.
I barely find a girl like her in many ways, yes she is absolutely full of originality.

I found her blog through 'she and him's video or whatever I keen on nearly 4 years ago.
I and Annie have lived in UK at the same year but different place, so that reason comes to attract me for an instant, even she was one of blogger among the trendy blogs. Specifically video of her performance is one and only existence, not just like girls dressed in new outfits and posing with pink roses and cupcakes. ( to be honest, I love Lula world!) Besides her voice is adorable and cool; having boy's side and girl's side.

I was quite surprised that she wasn't embarrassed when she pick up playing guitar at first time, you can't say it's good but it was cute and unique. but then after finishing life in UK, there was great news coming up. She was chosen as a semi-final candidate for the vocal audition in Tokyo. Such a amazing news for me because I just checked her blog and we were not in common each other.I went to see her stage for the first time. I was moved by her song indeed.

I think you must be fun of her song when you start watching.
This gig - below was in May 2013 in Tokyo, song called 'cresent moon' by Annie the clumsy
