Susuana Loves HAIM

So the other day my friend randomly linked this song called" Forever" by the band HAIM, and since then I've found a new form of happiness!


Especially because they sound a bit old school, but when I found out they we're only just coming out I got really excited. I need their album in my life! Visit their youtube page

SusuanaLove: MUSIC VIDEO REVIEW (Natalia Kills - Free)

The music video I will be reviewing is Free by Natalia Kills





Natalia Kills, her voice sounds good, she also looks great in all that make-up and whoever dresses her has great taste.


Anyway the video. When it starts, Im thinking, what? no budget? why is it just Will I AM's talking head, talking not rapping, also talking allot of nonsense - 


I got some money in my pocket and I wanna go shopping
An go, buy me some things I like
I saw some kicks up in the mall, that I just gotta be rocking
I love to rock them tings I like
I'm no material guy, I just wanna look fly
Cool suits, dope boots
doin' them tings I like
'Cause when I get my gears straight
Them honeys gonna be shocking, shocking, yeah shocking yeah



My reaction? - 


Shocking? Yes very shocking. Moving on...
This video goes is a fashion video. Nice clothes, pretty people, no clear narrative but allot of poses. Its like Madonna's material girl but it... sucks? Listen to the lyrics they don't make sense. She has no money, but she's buying things at the same time she's free and these things are making her money. There a point in the video where its says "buy for freedom" does she mean "buy your happiness" There's point in the video when money is on fire and her hair is on fire? Theres a nude woman trying to put heels near there  vagina? What is going on?


For the the optimists that like to see messages in things, my friend said it may be satirical, making fun of people attitude to money.  If you watch the video pretend shes purposely acting like a deluded idiot that doesn't understand the value of anything it may seem that way HOWEVER this song is going to be playing in the cubs, and is going to be the backing track on fashion show-like tv programmes, many people are not going to take notice of what utter rubbish is going on here.


And to prove this optimist view is not the case here is what she said about the song:
"I'm so excited to promote my new single "Free" now. It's a good representation of my music. I wrote it a few years ago when I was a waitress and all I just wanted to do was go shopping no matter how much or little money I had." 


Has she not noticed the economy?
My concluding face expression


There are more than enough gagas in the world ... make some real music

SusuanaLove: RIP Amy Winehouse

I was going to post something else today but tragically the Talent who was Amy Winehouse passed away a few hours ago. I was working in my little charity in Camden when a women came in saying a famous lady had died, who lived in Camden just then. She didnt know her name, she tried to describe her but I was clueless. Then another lady came in and said "Amy Winehouse has just died". I was so gobsmaked all professionalism went out the window and shouted for my manager who checked his phone to confirm it. A sad day indeed, and another legend that has passed away at the young age of 27.

I was going to post my favourite song from the Back to Black album but I rather post a happier one.
It was only last week when I shared this on facebook with a friend on horrible rainy day and Imagined the sun was shining whilst listening to it.

Rest In Peace
also to the young people whose lives were taken in Norway - Forever Young

"We are a small nation and a proud nation. No one will bomb us to silence. No one will shoot us to silence. No one will ever scare us from being Norway. This evening and this night, we will take care of each other, comfort each other, talk to each other, and stand together." 
Right On.

SusuanaLove: Tutus ftw

I may have begun a small obsession with tutus after wondering how to wear them casually :P Made this on polyvore, probably my favourite set yet, really wish I had this outfit in reality, don't know where I'd wear it, maybe a black swan themed party? lol I dunno :P
hmmmmm


Also Ive had a lookbook for a year now and believe I havent posted anything. Well here it is my first look, not a huge frame shot so hope its doesnt get deleted, the light in my room last night wasnt very agreeable with my camera but anyway :P Send me you lookbook links so I can add you :)

SusuanaLove: Inspirational Artist Calender - Keri Hilson


APRIL.


Ok I know Keri Hilson isnt as big as the previous artists I put up but her inspiration is personal.
She is a beautiful singer and I admire her very much. Especially because all of my life Ive been really tall and slim, and believe it or not slim people get teased to. Up to about mid secondary school I was poked fun at , made to put on weight via various by friend and family and some people suggested  had eating disorder or something. Then I realised it was only by the larger kids or the jealous kids sprouting out mindless hatred. I stop caring, I mean models and thin? I and I don't even try to, I eat way more than I should I just don't ever put on weight that shows. Ive always loved music but there was hardly any one in the industry who's style with voice i could up to. Then there was Keri she was curvy or booty/boobylishious whe was slender and stunning and everything looked great on her, she wants lanky or awkward but pretty and confident looking. And I know girls younger than me in the same situation I was. People should let their wight and height put them down

I'm 5"8 and nine and a half stone now. I used to run track in secondary school now I wear heels with my head held high :)



"Men say: I can never be completely honest with my woman about her appearance.



Keri Hilson says: That’s definitely true. I’m 5’9”. So, my height’s an issue. If I’m feeling sexy, I’ll put on some heels—if that makes me a little taller than you, so be it. You have to be secure enough to stand next to a stallion."

SusuanaLove: photography music and models

Sorry for the unimaginative title, this is just update post i guess Ive been up to quite a bit

saw a select model on the tube the other day.
was staring at her for quite a bit thinking - it has to be you - 
and then plucked up the courage to ask her, she was nice she even said bye to me, 
it shows how much time I spend on Asos.com when I recognise the models lol.


Had a practice shoot on Monday, decided i need to do one every week to develop my skills


Had my first paid shoot yesterday it was a bit nerve racking but i hope shes happy with her pictures. Been so busy with uni work and sorting my self out... lastly im in love with this song!

SusuanaLove: Oh No! Colours!

I thought Id hit two birds with one stone in this post. First bird - this song below by Marina and the diamonds is quite old but the lyrics speak to me more than ever now seriously. Just listen to the lyrics there no point of me explaining, my mind frame in life is so confusing. I know what I want in life other people might think Im being blunt about things well I think I know myself than most so stop confusing me :P



Second Bird - I don't do colours, seriously its hard for me to buy colourful clothes and I don't know why I think they look good on every one else but the closest I get to is navy. Id like to my wardrobe is looking very dark. Marina videos are normally very colourful, I don't want my wardrobe to be as colourful though but I need to jump out of the safe black and nude zone if only 4 a bit. Any tips? :P

SusuanaLove: Bad Romance

University. Long distance Relationships. Relationships in General
It just works for some and not for others, tonight found a girl in the woods having the same conversation on the phone that I was having this morning. Because when your in the countryside experiencing a break up with your distant other half, that all you can do, get out and walk in the darkness literally, not the best idea sometimes but the way your feeling no night creeper would mess with you. Im sorry if im not making any sense, just came back from a night out with my lovely girls.
Friends - Morethanfriends - Friends?

on a related but happier note, check out this cover by my friend and his friends :) 

i will i will! share so hilarious stories soon but just not tonight :/

SusuanaLoveyou all good night xx

SusuanaLove turns Art Tutor

Hi everyone, hope you having a nice week ^ ^
I've become the busiest bee now since the run up to moving out has come.

Anyway I gave my first private art lesson on Tuesday. Helped a potential GCSE Art Student and earnt a little money. It was a favour for a young friend really, and the only qualification  have towards it is my A in Art GCSE and B in Graphics Alevel.

First I made her draw mind map with all the things she like and she drew little thumbnail sketches of them. I thought it was good to mop out all the things she was passionate about, to work out what things she would like t draw the most and what sort of style she would like to draw in.


She really wanted to draw people and also like anime so I firt made her draw Drake. I taught her the rules about proportions of a face and so on and about shading.


Next we looks at anime features, we only had girls on to look at so I made her draw some male versions. Then we used them to draw an anime verison of drake.


All right for the first lesson I think, since at the beginning she didn't know how to draw lol
Homework: fill A3 with sketches of anime features :P

Fun Times :) Im going to leave you with Britain's most loved artist at the moment If you haven't heard already. Shes going to be huge! - Cher Lloyd and shes only 16!


Imagination relies on seeing what is not there but what could be :)

SusuanaLoves 2NE1

Hello lovely people

Lately I've been listening to allot of Kpop, especially artist from YGEntertainment. This week I've been introduced to a girl group called 2ne1. The started in 2009, but only have one album and four singles but they’ve already won tonnes of awards

These girls have to my favourite Korean pop girl band so far, but on top of that their style is of the chain! They get hottest clothes to wear in their videos and on stage.


Here’s a test, how many hot outfits can you spot in this video? Even the extras
(start from 0:30 if impatient, the intro is not the greatest thing lol)
Sorry I could find the English Subbed one but you can sort of guess what the song is about


I really want to meet their stylist; they must be the luckiest girls. I think I spotted
a cassetteplaya jumper in one of their videos.
I need to start thinking planning my new wardrobe for university, so much inspiration. Oh and my uni, hold lots of balls so any advice on where to get affordable prom/ballroom dresses would be nice, because I just about got away with wearing a lbd to my last prom lol.

And last but not least
I would like to say thank you to Shaurie for my first blog award.
Its very much appreciated and appears on my new Award page :)

I think Im supposed to pass it on to 10 more people,
It was hard but here are my ten

SusuanaLove's Photography Paraphernalia #2

Introducing! Jonny!

My latest adopted camera, well Im sort of fostering it right now. It turned up at my shop and i found it in that back, it was labeled £5. So I got it, but I need to know if it can actually do the job. Im all over eBay right now trying to get some film for it because they Polaroid doesn't sell it anymore and most people are selling it for crazy prices :/.
Ive always wanted one, so when I get my own place I can have a picture of all my friends on the wall :).

Also if anyone is interested and lives in London a Louis Vuitton Bag came in, Its price £100 but I could probably get it for £75


(they are my trainers and my managers fingers lol)


Now Listening to:


Miguel Jontel - All I Want Is You (Ft J Cole) by PJ!

SusuanaLoves Spaceship

This is an outfit I've designed based on the song spaceship by Benny B featuring Kelis. I'm glad dance and electronic music is becoming more known outside. I think the video to is a bit of a green screen fail at times.

Anyway I created this look from a sweet futuristic fashion royalty look. Now I look at it she sorta looks like Keri Hilson meets Lady Gaga.

I like designing things but I doubt I can make half the things I design; I'm more of a customizer when it comes to textiles. )

Many of my followers are surprised by the fact I draw, lol there’s a lot more to come, pencil and paper are artistic foundations, who do you think did my header? ;) (Although technically that’s ink and paper lol)



Benny Benassi - "Spaceship" ft. kelis & Alp. de ap by Diamond Headphones

I’d also like take a quick moment to thank all my followers and people that read this blog or comment. I set this account up a long time ago but never used it, I didn’t think I could do this whole blogger thing, this is only my 13th post I've already befriended many great and interesting bloggers. I’m still new this BlogSpot thing and now that I'm following lots of people I appreciate it even more that you take the time and my sometimes very long blogs when I bet you have so many others on you reading list. Also Since I'm looking to go into the Media Industry I need experience communicating to a large audience and it’s nice to know people are actually reading and interested in what I write J

Oh and I designed my self a new logo!! ( becuse Im into graphic design and animation and stuff) I t would be nice to have some feed back :).














SusuanaLoves you All xx
