later...with jools holland


if you're british, you know all about "later... with jools holland."

a british music television show hosted by Jools Holland, the show's been running without a break since 1992 and is a part of BBC2's late-night line-up, usually airing around 11PM. each episode features a mixture of both established and new musical artists, from solo performers to bands and larger ensembles.

the show is currently broadcast in america on Ovation (check that cable line-up!) although the ovation broadcasts sometimes leave out several performances - and even one or two performers entirely - to fit enough commercials into the one-hour timeslot. the show is also shown in australia on the max channel and ABC2.

according to the episode listing on the wikipedia entry for the show, this morning ovation (on my local comcast network in philadelphia) is airing shows from february 2008. i just caught vampire weekend, and the episode just before included MGMT.

here's a vid for you from each of those two uber-hip bands.

enjoy!

what i didn't get for christmas...


no, i didn't get these yummy shoes for christmas, perhaps because i never laid eyes on them until today. in fact, i saw them for the first time just minutes ago, and had to hurry on over here to post a picture.

they're from botkier's fall 2009 collection. the style name is "molly" and the color is "black cherry" in patent leather.

black cherry... what a perfect color for patent leather shoes.

ah well. christmas may be over, but there's always a new reason to buy shoes.

like it's monday. that's always a good reason.

ciao,
julie

christmas! oh la la!





my favorite fashion christmas gift? two pieces of vera wang lavender label i received from my husband. (can't beat a guy who can buy clothes for you and get it RIGHT!)


but, after all, it's better to give than to receive. so here are two of my favorite fashion christmas gifts that i gave:




this shirt from ben sherman was a gift to my husband.



this moto jacket from urban outfitters was a gift to my son. (he wore it most of the day, so i guess he liked it!)

hope you had a great holiday, too!
