Treasure hunt

This weekend I've been on a treasure hunt, unintentionally.  This grey rainy London weather meant I have stayed in scouring the wonders of the web, indulging in the new !

Yesterday I was going through the music vaults of yesteryear and today ... Admittedly I'm a bit of an old soul and don't take very well to new sounds... But sometimes gems come along that you can't help but take notice of its twinkle. 

THEESatisfaction
You have to check out THEESatisfaction, two young ladies (above) with an unapologetic sense of style; their music (I guess), can be described as electronic neo soul, similar to the sounds of Georgia Anne Muldrow or Musinah, that's if I wanted to put it in a bag and label it.... I've been listening to their album 'awE naturalE' over and over today ! 



                                      
Lianne La Havas has burst on to our screens, her melancholic sultry voice, whose vocals kinda remind me of a floral sounding Billie Holiday and Indie Irie. Her up and coming album is to launch in July which is kinda torture, in the mean time download her EP from itunes.
Lianne La Havas



Alter Ego a fun clothing /made to order brand launched in 2011, if experimental and playing dress up is your thang then this is the brand for you. It's energetic and cultural - the new collection influenced by a trip to Kenya, has elements of the Masai mix up in its fabulous eclecticness



They recently had a collaboration with 
illamasqua, a cosmetic brand found in Selfridges , with its flagship store based on Beak Street. A british brand which launched in 2008 it has fabulous array of intense indulgent hues which suits ALL complexions.


 I <3 that lipstick!  

Alter Ego noted as one to watch by Cocosa!
