/\/\/\Y/\

M.I.A. is on her publicity trail in preperation for her new album titled /\/\/\Y/\ which looks like a bunch of gobbldy goop to us but probably has a very deep political meaning (personally I think it's meant to look like MAYA). The album is due for release on July the 12th and she recently graced the cover of NME. On the site there is a pretty cool video interview with her regarding the sound of the album, 'schizophrenic' and the Conservatives, 'politics isn't politics anymore'. Head over to the www.nme.com website and have a looksie.

Oh make me over


Yesterday Topshop launched its first make up range under the ever so interesting name of 'Topshop Make up'. Judging from the rave reviews from fashion insiders, it is safe to assume that while the name may be on the bland side, there is nothing bland about this make up range.

The collection is a collaboration between Topshop and make up artist Hannah Murray who has worked with Mario Testino, Luella among many others. As with everything to do with Topshop it is heavily influnced by the catwalk and it is promised that there will be a trend collection that is refreshed twice every season. Sounds exciting.

To launch the collection there are a few instore events happening, the coolest one sounds like the 'Mirror Mirror' installation that's based in Oxford Circus. Using a huge interactive mirror you can get tailored fashion tips from the likes of Nicola Formachetti and Louise Goldin. Along with this there will be make up artist trained by Hannah Murray giving make overs instore.
