Style Icon - Zooey Deschanel: Vintage Style and Stunning Voice!

I just love Zooey Deschanel. She has such a beautiful sense of style, and I'm pretty sure I have never seen her in an outfit that I don't love! She is often seen in lovely retro and vintage style dresses. Even in jeans and t-shirt Zooey looks great. If you havn't listened to her band, She and Him, then your ears need their summery music! Matt Ward and Zooey team up with an indie folk sound that is super catchy, easy to listen to and perfect for sunny lazy days. I think my favourite track is 'In The Sun' off of their newer album, 'Volume Two'... have a little watch of the music video at the bottom of the page, and watch out for the stunning polka dot dress that features when Zooey is hula hooping!

Love this photo, the retro hair and dress combination is definitely a winner.

Zooey Deschanel performing with Matt Ward as 'She and Him' in a very pretty floral dress.

The shirt, chunky belt and long necklace is a simple, but lovely outfit.

The Pipettes Vs Hoxton Square Bar and Kitchen!

The Pipettes are back! They have ditched the 50's inspired sound and polka dots for a more 80's disco feel... but that doesn't make me love them any less (if anything, I love them more now)! They still have the fun, pop songs that make you want to dance. Their new single Stop The Music and Our Love Was Saved By Spacemen are brilliant, catchy and fun... I couldn't help but dance and sing along. When it is released I will be first in line for the long awaited second album: Earth Vs The Pipettes, and if you like disco-pop songs that make you want to dance then I suggest you do the same... Earth look out! Here come The Pipettes!


Ani - I love her dress. Fits in with the space theme nicely.

Pulling Shapes... The ladies didn't disappoint and I was up joining them in no time!

Colin, the mascot for the gig.

There were two support bands, Angry Vs The Bear was one of them (or Angry Vs The Hair from the sheer volume of the do's they were sporting!). Described as "frantic, noisy, fizzy electro pop punk", they were very good, but a lot of their songs sounded very similar to the next one and the one before it. But overall, definitely worth a listen.

The first support band were Safari, and I have been desperately trying to locate their Myspace, Twitter, website... anything, but to no avail! which is such a shame, because I thought they were absolutely brilliant! I will definitely be keeping an eye out for them when they start releasing material, and if anyone can find a link for me that would be fantastic. Every song had a slightly different sound to it, quirky lyrics, and were something that I would consider buying to add to my music collection.
