I have finally finished my piano book of pop songs. It took me over a year to learn all 22 songs and play them properly. Not gonna lie, so proud of myself. My fave songs to play have to be Cry Me a River by good old Justin Timberlake or With a Little Help From My Friends by The Beatles.
Slowly but definitely surely my skills are improving but I wanna sound REALLY slick...like Alicia Keys. I can only dream me guess. The new book I'm learning is the tunes from the musical, Chicago! The scores are 10 times more complicated than the pop songs book but I'll be sure to complete it. As soon as I finish learning the first song, I'll make a video giving a little performance. I might even get a singer to sing-along for kicks.
Anyways, tis the season of fashion! This season, I'll only be at the shows in London et Paris. London will be exciting because they are moving the shows to the Strand. Way more central and it looks to be bigger than ever.

For my latest painting, I decided to paint a model from one of my favourite shows from last season. The Marithe et Francois Girbaud show in Paris.
I went to loads of great shows for A/W '09. In London, Emma Bell always stands out although I hear she's not showing this season. John Rocha I loved too.
In Paris, Viktor et Rolf was the most beautiful show. Literally every outfit was modelled by a top model. 50 amazing looks, 50 great models. JCDC's show rocked and Paul et Joe was pure glitz and glamour. However, what made Marithe et Francois Girbaud memorable was that the models were allowed to go wild. Most of the time, the models are all so serious looking as they strut down the catwalk. For this show they danced, played and waved to the crowd. Everyone in attendance got to experience their personalities.
So let the fun begin and woo woo to fashion!
