Styleinspo a la Flex Mami

I am currently obsessed with the style of Australian DJ and writer Flex Mami. It is rare to come across a young person whose aesthetic sensibility is so finely-tuned. I love the way she brings together a variety of textures, patterns, and silhouettes, all while maintaining that very unique je ne sais quoi that keeps one returning to her Instagram page in search of inspiration. The Victorian collared shirts made from gorgeous lace fabrics paired with wide-legged trousers. Midi-skirts of every wonderful fit you can imagine. Novelty-esque accessories that are both chic and playful. Not to mention that this lady really knows how art direct a photo, from the poses to the props.

100 Days of Positive Thinking: Day 12

Things I am loving right now:
1. What's Going On, Barkley Hendricks (1974)
2.  Quavo channeling MJ is life.
3. Peached Munroe has created a hair line. Can you say, fleeky?
4. This Instagram page is giving me life. So much style inspiration.
5. Rachel Kaadzi Ghansah most recent Longform interview is amazing.

Song of the Day: "Deathless" by Ibeyi ft. Kamasi Washington

In their new track which features saxophonist, Kamasi Washington, Ibeyi turns a racist encounter into musical magic. I love the visuals, which are minimalistic per the duo's standard style. The twin sisters are clad in red against a dark backdrop. In an almost kaleidoscopic effect crawl out of each other's bellies repeatedly. Against the feisty, bold lyrics and punchy melody, it is a powerful and exciting song that departs from the eerie, soft sounds of their debut album. I cannot wait to hear the rest of this album. Bravo, Diaz sisters!
