Not only is today Thanksgiving in America, but it's also the day before Black Friday. Famous for its crazy shopping deals, even ol' mate Frank Ocean is getting in on the action, dropping a limited bunch of merch over on his website. Selling everything from those Boys Don't Cry zines, to a limited print of Blonde on vinyl, to even a dope AF air freshener (WTF, yes an air freshener), it's a pretty sweet lineup of Ocean goods. You'd better get buying quick-smart though because everything is selling out like absolute hot cakes. S/N don't give us that look, yes we forked out $15 for the air freshener because...Frank Ocean, duh!

Here is everything that's being sold over on his website boysdontcry.com -

Pablo Pop-Up Stores Are Hitting Australian Shores This Weekend

This is not a drill, we repeat - THIS IS NOT A DRILL!

Kanye West shot out a tweet earlier this morning sharing news that a bunch of Pablo Pop-Up Stores would be opening worldwide over the weekend. The tweet also contained a picture of map (as seen below), with Australia lucky enough to get two destinations — Sydney & Melbourne.

The exact details and locations of the stores will be announced 24 hours before they open. But, let it be known that in February earlier this year, a pop-up store was opened in NYC and things got wild. So charge your phones, refresh your twitter feeds and prepare yourselves  — because this is YEEZY SEASON, THIS IS SERIOUS!

And, of course, if you can't make it to the Pablo Pop-Up stores there's always our Kanye merch.

UPDATE: Australian Pablo Pop-Up Store Locations Revealed

The stores will be open Fri (10am-8pm), Sat (8am–6pm) and Sun (11am-5pm) in Bondi Beach and Fitzroy.

Trash Or Treasure? The Week Past's Most Iconic Looks In Music

TrashTreasure22August

Here at the interns we give our ears and proper workout so we thought we would give our eyes a chance to prove their worth. Trash or treasure gives us a chance to look over the week past’s most eyeball worthy looks and decide if we’re going to copy them or appreciate them from afar.

Lana Del Rey

Lana Del Rey In 'High By The Beach'

I wonder what she’s trying to say in this - the dreamy/ crazy film clip shows the singer calmly floating around her house a floor length sun dress draped in a delicate lace blue robe (very Lana). Perfect outfit for firing a bazooka at the paparazzi.

Lauren Mayberry

T-shirt inspiration for the gym ?? #EmbraceTheGrace

A post shared by Lauren Mayberry (@laurenevemayberry) on


The angelic synthpop artist meets pop icon Grace Jones force to be reckoned with. Heading off to the gym Lauren Mayberry of CHVRCHES shares her exercise attire. Definitely the right person to channel if you’re after a decent workout, don’t you think?

EZTV

NYLON

These are the new kids on the Brooklyn block. Sounding like something from 70’s California, their lazy summer vibes are simply delightful. Who knows if they're interested in fashion or if anyone else will be interested in their fashion, however, the material world digs anything that’s cool without trying and this is exactly what these guys have going on.

Ariana Grande

Touching down: Ariana Grande, 22, landed in Tokyo on Thursday as she wore an animal suit and double buns on her head in the shape of ears

Image: Daily Mail

Lord I thought this trend was finished. Ariana Grande obviously decided she wanted to go for the ‘quirky’ look when arriving in Japan wearing a pink onesie and double hair buns. Whilst she could be a number of different animals here, the worst part of the outfit is the shoes and bag she’s matched with it. “Grande also donned a pair of classic black heels and carried a leather purse as a touch of casual elegance” - wrong Daily Mail! If you’re going to be weird Ariana, just commit to the look.

Lianne La Havas


Flashback Friday to the outfit Lianne La Havas wore celebrating her new album. Whilst she obviously doesn’t know the rules of a #fbf (i.e. It can’t be from the week before, duh) her exotic yet modern androgynous look lets her off the hook. The singer, who is on Obama’s summer playlist (true story), is all about soul, even with her fashion.

Foals

Foals photographed at Trackside Studios by Andrew Cotterill for #Q350. On sale now.

A post shared by Q Magazine (@qmagazineuk) on


“The world is as savage and dark and brutal as ever. I feel pessimistic about being part of the human race. It’s not something I would endorse any more!” For more uplifting perspectives read this months Q magazine which features Foals! Here they are looking cool but not hipster (don’t call them that, they don’t like it) in a shot from the article posted on the magazine’s instagram.

Beyoncé

Just like Royalty, sometimes all that is expected from them is to turn up smile and leave. Whilst most celebrities would give part of their soul to be on any Vogue cover (let alone a September issue) Queen Bey doesn’t even have to open her mouth. Instead a series of photos shot by Mario Testino are accompanied only by a short piece on her global domination. Her inaccessibility allows her to still maintain a sense of mystery and just adds even more to her star power.

Simon O’Connor
Nylon’s news Band Crush! Simon Doom (fronted by Simon O’Connor) he looks just as he describes: “gruff, '90s New York teenage punk”.

Katy Perry

Fashion issue: The pop star wore a Saint Laurent gown for her cover shoot by photographer Jean-Paul GoudeKaty has been popping up more and more in the fashion arena recently. Sleek and dramatic, wearing a Saint Laurent dress (amaze) on the cover of the September issue of U.S Harpers Bazaar. She was hand picked by Global Fashion Director Carine Roitfeld for the Icons Issue shoot where she characterised Elizabeth Taylor.

Tyler The Creator

A post shared by Tyler The Creator (@feliciathegoat) on

Tyler The Creator is best known as a music creator but also has some serious credentials as a fashion creator. He's already got an impressive collection under his Wolf Gang label but now he's also unleashed a collaboration with skate footwear giant Vans. It's exactly the kind of shoe you'd expect from Tyler too. He may not be welcome here in Aus, but his footwear sure is.

Solange

Great show @SaintRecords #Solange #fyffest

A post shared by DON DADA (@dondada001) on


Everytime Solange takes to the stage she proves her status as style queen and her appearance at LA's FYF Fest was no different. Mixing '70s chic with modern cool, she boogied her way through a set of tunes that acted as the audible equivalent to her outfit.

BONUS: Vanity Fair's Best Dressed List

Screen Shot 2015-08-24 at 3.47.01 pmVanity Fair have compiled their annual International Best Dressed List inclusive of all Vanity Fair-esque people. Global Ambassadors, Architects, Financiers, Actors, Royals etc. Rihanna (the Sultry Swagger), Taylor Swift (the Prep Power) and FKA Twigs (shown in her Met Gala penis gown) all got a mention. Congrats gals!

Beyoncé

Beyoncé has bought out a line of temporary tattoos and has announced this with a smouldering black and white photo series featured in CR Fashion Book. Because if you want to make your product launch cool, who else to associate yourself with but Carine Roitfeld. The new festival accessory. Still... Chanel did it first.

Frank Ocean
tumblr_nseskqTums1ratxo2o1_500
You’re not my favourite person right now Frank. He was looking very unimpressed in New York last week, probably because he’s sick of being heckled. I get it, it’s annoying but god dammit Frank, hurry up, just HURRY UP! Ooo is that an Acne bag I see.

Miley Cyrus
2B364FBF00000578-3190717-image-a-27_1439067751867
Well isn’t this a nice change from those Borat mankini things Miley frequently seems to wear. She should definitely channel this Edie/Twiggy look more often. Whilst the dress screams disco chic, her hair and make-up are the flawless feature of this cover. One of her best looks to date.

Vic Mensa & ASAP Rocky
https://instagram.com/p/58R2uRG2m7/
Lollapalooza attendees were prettyyyyy excited to see these two together on stage. Chilling backstage at the festival posing with some major attitude, this duo has legit street cred in the fashion world (Vic Mensa has his own shoe deal with Puma and well A$AP is the number one pretty boy).

Rihanna

I ? @zuluinternational

Dear Lord. She looks like she could easily fit into the Capulet party scene in Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo + Juliet, which has pretty much been my costume goals ever since I saw that movie 17 years ago . So in my eyes, she’s winning. The native was attending the Barbados Crop Over Festival which held annually to celebrate the end of the sugarcane harvest. She wearing a custom made Kadooment Day ZuluIntl Mockingjay costume.

“I like to wake up with none of my clothes or phones by me and just not know what happened and try to spend the next day figuring it out.” But by the look of his colour coordinated outfit, I still think he has his shit together.

Rachel Clark


Music is a huge part of the brand Burberry. If you didn’t know this, just have a look at one of their advertisements and fashion shows frequently featuring new musicians. More so they have dedicated a component of their website to showcasing them. In 2010, Christopher Bailey (Creative Director) established Burberry Acoustic to use the brand as a platform to expose local music talent.

17 year old indie folk singer songwriter Rachel Clark from Cambridge, who plays the guitar, cello and piano was selected for the latest shoot. Judging by her online following she is still very unknown. For now.

Sam Smith

After the kicks there's little old mixed-up me

Stealth. The new face of Balenciaga has definitely upped his fashion game since he emerged onto the scene.

Woah… Drop it like it’s hot Lenny. The trending story last week: Lenny’s wardrobe malfunction. This guy really does stay true to his style, accessories are his thing.... His necklace. I was talking about his necklace.

Trash Or Treasure? Splendour In The Grass' Most Memorable Looks

TrashTreasureSplendour

We've had a week to deal with the fact that Splendour In The Grass is over for another year but that doesn't mean we can't still learn something. As much as music festivals are about the music, fashion continues to play a huge part both on and off stage. Here are the most memorable looks from Splendour.

Tkay Maidza

? @fromthepit666

A post shared by Tkay Maidza (@tkaymaidza) on


Just as she promised she “went all out”. Deciding to get a custom made pilot suit for the occassion months ago (cute!) she drew one of the largest crowds of the day. Bouncing around on stage, the adorable, full of life rapper is a great reminder to not taken anything too seriously, especially fashion. And the fashion peeps have already caught on. She’s already appeared in Australian Vogue and Nylon and fronted the Mimco x Frends collaboration campaign.

Azealia Banks
https://instagram.com/p/5js8B1n1U8
As they say a picture is worth a thousand words but there is only one for this: Gurllll! Whilst she has expressed her disapproval about the hip hop and fashion world colliding, her fashion choices are obvious form of self expression. Reflecting her loud and boisterous style, her very short, tight and colourful outfit looked amazing on her. In saying that with the length of her legs, she could pretty much wear anything. Bitch.

Client Liason

Splendour In The House ?☁️ time ? @biancaholderness

A post shared by Client Liaison (@clientliaison) on


Their style is definitely nostalgic. Everything from their band name, their hairstyles to their outfits evokes an Australian 8’0s corporate vibe. Hence their Splendour outfits. Monte Morgan strutted around in an apricot lapel suit with matching shoes and white socks. Harvey Miller contrasted in a sky blue version and accessorised his look with some pale pink shoulder length earring. They took their stage performance one step further and had backup dancers in 80’s aerobics leotards. I’m not sure if they intended to, but they looked hilarious.

Florence Welch

I know, I know she seems to feature a lot in these list, but come on…. Look at her! As most festival goers these days desperately try to recreate a scene from Almost Famous by kitting themselves from head to toe (in not necessarily fashionable) vintage, Florence polished and contemporary twist on the 60’s/70’s trend can’t be beaten. At one point in her performance, spinning and twirling around on stage she got caught up in her amazing lightweight flowy cream top and threw it into the crowd. Whoever the person who managed to get their hands on it, so help me God if you don’t treat that piece of material like treasure...

Patience Hodgson from The Grates


If you had to judge how much fun one was having at Splendour by what they were wearing then Patience Hodgson was more excited than everyone. Or as Phoebe from Friends puts it “ You’re like Santa Clause on Prozac, at Disneyland, getting laid!” Her wearable art was created by designer Rachel Burke. Whilst I personally think she resembles a giant jellyfish or a pinata, the creative and crafty singer of The Grates (who hosts a DIY/ How-to web series “Fancy Free”) seemed to be thrilled with it.

Johnny Marr

Image: Daily Mail

Image: Daily Mail

One of the genuine rock and roll style icons that still remains today. Johnny Marr , the charming and fashion conscious musician, looked every bit that in his red button up and tailored black velvet blazer (which is pretty much the sexiest piece of clothing a guy can wear). His embroidered blue and red floral guitar strap was small reminder of his cool individual style.

Ellie Rowsell from Wolf Alice

Image: Blank Gold Coast

Image: Blank Gold Coast

ASOS and Polyvore are already trying to recreate her looks, so I guess it’s safe to say Ellie Rowsell is one of the new style crushes of fashion. Her style is a juxtaposition of raw 90’s grunge with something girly, pretty, glittery or sparkly. Her approach to dressing for festivals: getting a little dressed up, as long as it make her feel a bit more special. The jacket she wore performing at Splendour was gaw-jus.

Megan Washington

Diverging from the indie hipster style usually seen at Splendour, I’m going to go ahead and say this year was all about the colour and the sparkles. Lots of sparkles. An on-stage favourite amongst many performers, Megan Washington jumped on board of the trend. Just as she describes her style, she is a “modern Sally Bowles”.

Kevin Parker from Tame Impala

Image: The Music

Image: The Music

His distinctive style is reminiscent of his band’s sound, disorientated but dazzling. Admitting he’s not interested in fashion, he wore a tie-dyed t-shirt and still had his signature scarf draped around his neck. Pleasing the crowd with very visual psychedelic backdrop, he just blended in.

Ecca Vandal

Well she certainly has a stage presence… The “enigma” as she keeps being referred to, fiery punk persona (it’s not just her style) is adventurous and energetic, which always makes one interesting to watch. Plus she kind of reminds me of a character that could be in “The Fifth Element”.

Trash Or Treasure? The Week’s Most Iconic Looks In Music

Fashion_12JulyHere at the interns we give our ears and proper workout so we thought we would give our eyes a chance to prove their worth. Here are the best threads worn this week by people in the music biz.

Solange hosting Kiehl’s Pioneers By Nature Party in London

2A632FDF00000578-0-image-m-117_1436483796224

Get out. Where is the praised hands emoji on the keyboard when you need it?? Looking pretty as a peach (on the top), pairing a full length bronzed pleated skirt and yellowy green metallic shoes isn’t something most people would even think of assembling. But (I’m sure) without even second guessing it, Solange does. Fashion statement indeed.

Leon Bridges

A post shared by Leon Bridges (@leonbridgesofficial) on

This old-school debonair newcomer is becoming known just as much for his approach to fashion as he is for his music. Admitting he dresses nearly exclusively in vintage, his sound and flair is a throwback to a soulful era. Sharp indeed, there’s still a smoothness and a relaxed attitude evoked in Bridges' sense of style. I dig his vibe.

Charli XCX 

2A5A67A500000578-3154504-image-m-33_1436426791366

Whilst a lot of people will be hating on this, I don’t mind it. Charli XCX can be pretty ballsy with her fashion but this cute overly girly is still something different for her. Attending the Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb 10th Anniversary party she choose to wear a head to toe look from their Spring 2015 Couture Collection. Very few, however, can pull off a look straight from the runway. If she had personalised this with different shoes it could been a lot more impressive. Also she totally should have kept it off the shoulder as they did on the runway.

Tori Amos at Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Anniversary Party

2A5A678100000578-3154504-In_a_line_Viktor_Horsting_Rolf_Snoeren_and_Tori_Amos_all_posed_f-a-19_1436427597637

The art meets fashion, avant garde designer duo Viktor & Rolf are all about the theatrics. So they appropriately choose long time collaborator, Tori Amos, to be the soundtrack of the night. The simple yet dramatic outfit she wore accessorised with bold and quirky glasses, suited the brands aesthetic as well as the spectacular backdrop of the Parisian La Trianon theatre.

A$AP Rocky featured on GQ’s instagram

As he puts it, “fashion is almost like a religion”. Amen. The kid know how to dress and after numerous features, interviews and appearances on their best dressed list it’s not surprising GQ is a HUGE fan. The recent instagram post showcases A$AP’s experimental and varied style. No doubt with with his extensive fashion knowledge and natural sense of style, he had a lot of input in this outfit choice.

Ruby Rose

`

Before she was an actress and everyone’s choice for “who I’d turn for”, Ruby Rose was a DJ and recording artist. DJing at Pacha nightclub in New York, her silver vest and shorts combo went perfectly with her colourful tattoos covering her body. Even though she looks amazing in full length dress, I don’t think anyone rocks the masculine tomboy style better than her.

Lauryn Hill Performing at Tory Burch’s Party in Paris

afterparty_960_9

Apparently it was the biggest party of the year and the main contributor was Lauryn Hill’s performance. The Moroccan themed garden party held in a 17th century mansion’s courtyard was an exquisite setting but it was Lauryn’s appearance that captured everyone’s attention. The “inspiring, brilliant, divine” (as the designer described her) looked just that. Wearing white mini dress, long sleeveless overcoat, and thigh-high gladiator sandals, Hill’s outfit emulated the party’s theme beautifully.

Jay Sharrock, Alex Turner, Miles Kane and Jeff Wootton

Alex-Turner-Taylor-Bagley-glamour_3jul15_GettyImages_b_592x888

If anyone going to make the cut for best-dressed lists, it's English rockers. Seen at the Serpentine Gallery Summer Party in London looking a little weird but cool because they couldn’t care less.

Lily Allen at Wireless Festival

2A364FF200000578-3148869-image-a-181_1435958975184

She seems happy. This is probably before she got rejected from the VIP area. Looking very trendy in her pink MCM backpack, midriff, sneakers and mirror sunglasses, my eyes were still drawn initially to her chest. I know she’s not wearing a bra...but she should.
