Bet You Didn't Know

Fashion evolves. Fashion inspires.

Fashion Teaches!

Canadian Designer, Jason Wu, tells Elle Magazine that he owes a lot to fashion. Did you know that Jason Wu moved to Canada from Taiwan at the age of nine. The young Jason was having difficulty picking up the language and his teacher thought it would be easier if he started reading things with pictures. So she gave him a stack of fashion magazines. He recalls seeing a Christian Lacroix spread and was desperate to figure out what it was about. In attempts to understand the images that he was intrigued by, fashion helped him to learn English!

Find Your Love! ♥

Now Drake has undeniable lyrical talent, but when its come to videos in the past...let's just say......let's just say they were far less than up to par. Foolishness if you ask me. His track, "Over" had reviews split right down the middle. Either you loved it, or you hated it. I thought it was awwwwright. Different, a little trippy lol, but none-the-less, something different. I think Drake has OFFICIALLY redeemed himself from the rubbish music video history he's left and created a banger with this one! SO here it is, the official extended version of his single, "Find Your Love", off his debut album, "Thank Me Later", being released, June 15th, 2010. ENJOY!

I've had the original song by K'naan playing on my iPod a lot this past week. LOL I even get people annoyed from me singing it at work. What can I say, I like it! Enjoy this version of "Wavin' Flag" by a group of Canadian artists, brought together by producer Bob Ezrin, all in support of the devestation of Haiti.

Gotta love the support of Canadians.
