When you feel so strongly about a trend, that you have to start a Pinterest board about it, then you know it’s a keeper. I just want to shout it from the rooftops, I love matching sets! Sure they may be hard to stumble across, they’re a bit elusive and also go by the name of separates and co-ords. Sometimes you have to go on a hunt to find the other half in store and don’t even get me started with items not being styled together online. My main reason for this devotion is that you have all the fun of a dress and also the option to team each bit with something else. They’re like the goody-two-shoes of garments. I see it as a uniform for those of us who have fuzzy memories of school and it’s an easy, automatic outfit that will make a statement. Sometimes it takes a bit of time for the High Street to really go all guns blazing with a look and I’m pleased to say there are some very nice options for SS14 indeed.

Row 1 – Eleonara Carisi for Zalando, Warehouse, The Whitepepper, J.Crew, Topshop

Row 2 – Topshop, Topshop, Agnès B., Toast, Monki

Row 3 – Cath Kidston, Boden, Topshop, Topshop, Whistles

I’ve included a few of my favourite pairings and also a few things that I wish were part of a set. Am I the only one who gets a bit forlorn when items like this Topshop skirt don’t come with a relative of some sort? I definitely prefer the top and bottoms look over the suit, especially since the tops tend to be slightly cropped and perfect with any high-waisted skirts. If you’re not too sure about committing fully to the combo, then try something a little more understated like this ASOS set in black. Simples.

Are you as obsessed with matching sets as me? Check out the last time I wore one on the blog and on Sunday I’ll be sharing another one I’ve found. I’ve also just stumbled across this H&M combo so looks like I’ll be good to go for SS14!

Hip Hop beef may be back, but the antics are on another level. Rick Ross didn’t take Drake’s recent dis track Push-Ups lightly. Rozay immediately took to the studio to comeback at the ‘white boy’ with a dis of his own entitled Champagne Moments. The MMG CEO explains that he is on a different level of gangster and the Instagram antics can’t get him out of a luxurious seat in his private hanger. While exposing fandom audio, switchable accusations, and fake body parts, Rozay says this beef has to end face to face. Let us know your thoughts on the official video below.

In the bustling streets of Southeast, Washington DC, rapper Kazon’s latest offering, “My Brother,” emerges as a symphony of redemption and advocacy, resonating with audiences far and wide.

Kazon’s path to musical stardom has been fraught with obstacles, from brushes with the law to a brush with death that left him scarred but unbroken. Through it all, he credits his resilience to the belief that every setback is an opportunity for growth.

With “My Brother,” Kazon takes on the role of a lyrical mentor, offering guidance and solace to Black youth grappling with violence and systemic oppression. Through heartfelt verses and melodic refrains, he shares his own journey of redemption, using his past mistakes as a catalyst for change.

At its core, “My Brother” is a call to action—a plea for unity, love, and advocacy within the Black community. Kazon’s harmonious tale serves as a reminder that through solidarity and advocacy, we can effect real change and pave the way for a brighter future.

As the final notes of “My Brother” fade into the ether, Kazon’s message lingers: every trial is a testament to our strength, and every mistake is a chance to do better. Through his music, he invites us to join him in a journey of redemption and advocacy—one that holds the promise of a more just and equitable world for all.
