One last kiss before they cart me away, and just take one last look before my body decays... I'll never love again.

currently listening to: William Control - Hate Culture



I feel like starting a new weekly post. I think I will call it "I Spy: Stylish Rockstar of the Week". Pretty self explanatory: every week, I'm going to try to find a current picture of a musician (from that week) in which he (or she) is wearing something worth blogging about. This is where "following rockstars who use Twitter/Twitpic" comes in handy, (as much as I actually hate to say that). But maybe I should also start buying music magazines again. Argh. (And what in the hell happened to Steven's Untitled Rock Show on Fuse? How am I supposed to know about new music video debuts as they happen so I can write about them THAT week? Blah).

Anyways, for the first installment, I will write about this picture that I spied on William Control's twitpic. It doesn't count 100% because he actually posted it LAST week, (on the 13th), but it's still early in this week, and hopefully I'll be able to find someone else to blog about later.

And now, without further ado, I present...

I SPY: STYLISH ROCKSTAR OF THE WEEK - week one - WILLIAM CONTROL (aka wiL Francis).




Ok, so it's not anything extravagant, but I'm becoming a bigger and bigger fan of people who can pull off a casual outfit with a "rocker" feel EFFORTLESSLY. (Key word: EFFORTLESSLY.. basically, if it has a "rocker" feel without trying oh so damn hard).

He's wearing classic, basic pieces, but the accessories complete the look. I'm loving the hat.

Urban Outfitters seems to have pretty similar and interesting hats for under $40:




I think I want this bowler.



If anyone who reads this blog "spies" any stylish musicians on any given week, please leave a comment on any of my postings (I read EVERYTHING!) and if I like what you spy, I'll write about it. (Remember, I ask that it be CURRENT! Like, if you go to a show the night before and notice that "insert-bass-player's-name-here" was wearing an amazing pair of shoes or jacket or whatever, tell me about it the next day!). And of course, pictures would help ;)

Oooh yes! A good hat can MAKE an outfit. Before I cut my dreads off I used to wear my tophat all the time :) But now with short "normal" hair, it's too big :( Very sad.
Mmmmm I love clothes too much too. I need some new ones desperately...
Yay! Looking forward to more of these :)
