Nice mantra for the year ahead right? Here are some things we’re looking forward to…

1. Magazine Subscriptions

Christmas was very kind to us on the subscription front. So, while the postman will be feeling the weight of magazines on his back, more sumptuous fashion photography is on its way. Whoopla!

2. Ladyhawke’s New Album

From the first time we heard her record in New Zealand to the Rhythm and Vines Festival where she performed: we’re sold on Ladyhawke. Great tunes, great hair and some neat illustrations for artwork make this second album hard to refuse. Heck I’ve not even heard a tune from it.

3. Marc Jacobs x Louis Vuitton Exhibition

Although I think fashion-focused exhibitions are generally hard to stage, in large part because not enough curators allow you to see the entire garment hung on a body, it’s fair to say this Paris-based exhibition will be more than clothes. Interested.

4. The Great Gatsby / Baz Lurhmann

Carey Mulligan, the mighty Leo Di Caprio all masterminded by Baz Lurhmann. I think we’re all expecting a riotous, colourful spectacular. Oh, and a lot of fringing.

5. Recipes from this cookbook

You may recall our now persistent references to NYC’s Milk Bar? Well, get prepared for more. I only freakin’ well received the cookbook as a present. The recipes are a culinary outrage, with frankly quite a few steps for each ingredient (milk crumbs anyone?) but you know what? When the food looks this much fun it’ll be worth the effort. No doubt.
