FACE OF THE FESTIVAL 2010



Premier Models and Farhi by Nicole Farhi are on the look-out for the next queen of festival bling, with the winner getting the chance to sign up with Premier and model in a Nicole Farhi campaign. Yay or Nay caught up with them scouting for girls at Wireless this weekend. The campaign is being photographed by the lovely Huggy Ragnarsson and judging by these shots, which Huggy very kindly let Yay or Nay take, it's going to look stunning.



BEST DAY EVER!!!



Yay or Nay is a very very happy bunny after managing to blag free tickets to Wireless Festival in Hyde Park yesterday. YoN ran around like a very excitable child taking crowd photography of these awesome people...





...when YoN turned around and literally ran into the stunning and lovely Lisa Snowdon. Staggering away in shock, who did YoN turn around to find but Henry Holland, who is also an absolute sweetheart, shaking his booty to Missy Elliot!





As if the day wasn't already pretty up there, YoN, being very confused and star-struck already, stumbled upon some kind of fashion shoot, which YoN will leave for a separate blog post as it does in fact deserve one of its own...

Although there were doubts about how fun a London festival can be, what with the inevitable general social disorder implied, there was a surprisingly friendly and fun-filled vibe with all sorts of different people coming together to try and enjoy the sun and beats while they last. Crazy party-goers shared the love and happy pills were a-plenty.









There was plenty of flesh on show as guys showed-off their abs and girls showed off the cream of festival fashion which included lots of crop-tops and bright pink lipstick. Missy Elliot, Snoop Dogg and 2 Many DJs rocked out although LCD Soundsystem received a less than friendly reception which included a number of thrown bottles. All in all a very good time was had by all.

Yay or Nay shopped our little heart out today at the Pop Store Sample Sale. Pop Store is one of the latest in the craze for blink-and-you-missed-it fashion. In a culture saturated with a different hype every weekend, it's the best way for girls about town to stay ahead of the curve and boast that sadly the place they found their cool new neon LnA playsuit is now just a memory in high-street history.



Yay or Nay squealed over bargains a-plenty with some other lovely bloggers from Vice Blogging Network including Miggy Likes The Internet and Mlle Milly who showed us their favourite pieces.







Disney Couture jewellery is on sale!!! Bargainisious!!! Yay or Nay nabbed this Castle ring for £20 and the LnA playsuit below for £30. The store is at Whiteleys Shopping Centre, Queensway, for the time being... go there now!!

CSS ON THE CREATORS PROJECT


CSS have been Yay Or Nay's favourite band since we saw them jumping around like children on Redbull at Glastonbury in 2007. Lovefoxx in a yellow metallic jumpsuit is still our favourite girl crush moment. These guys care less about being taken seriously as musicians and more about having fun and putting on a show with some amazing outfits and set pieces.

The band have teamed up with The Creators Project to explain how digital technology has allowed them to progress from recording music in their own houses to playing to global audiences. Yay Or Nay's favourite part is when their studio is invaded by dogs but they keep the barking on the track because they thought it was funny.

This project is all about how the grand narratives of the 20th century are being replaced by a free and democratic new art form which has been made available by digital technology. In the video CSS have a cut-out of Britney Spears on the stage during a gig. A perfect metaphor, if one was needed, for the freedom of new music in comparison for the "created" acts of the last century.

PROHIBITION PARTY

This weekend Yay or Nay slinked off to the countryside for a night of clandestine debauchery. Girls in flapper dresses and feather head accessories partied like it was 1922 alongside dapper gentlemen who smoked cigars and discussed the prohibition. The flapper look is all about displaying a disdain for social norms with excessive make-up and a bad-ass attitude that says "I'm free and easy and I just don't give a f*ck."

The night was spent listening to jazz, doing the Charleston and over-indulging on rum, because misbehaving is always so much more fun when you know what you are doing is illegal.
