+ There's a style to the music.
+ There's a fashion to the words.

+ There's a seduction in the sound of Jay West, but what makes it provocative is all within the details.


+ The Jay West Perspective is romantic. The Jay West Aesthetic is tailored. The Jay West agenda is to INSPIRE. “Southern California’s Newest Buzzworthy Artist” is preparing a follow-up to the cult classic mixtape, “Drugs+Candy”. The table is set.

Thierry LeGoues Photography

Imagine my train of thought. Its nearly 2 AM (1:55 AM). I’m writing. I’m blogging. I have a song in my head; Mary J. Blige “Sincerity” Featuring DMX & Nas. I go look for the record. I find it. I download it. I think of the movie Belly which starred both those rappers. I think of the director of the film, Hype Williams. I google Hype Williams Photography because I’m looking for inspiration. I come across the Thierry LeGoues photography whose work was featured spectacularly in the film. I steal the photos. I share them with you guys, like so:






and now...I'm speechless.

The Gold Bottle: Armand De Brigniac



The gang's all here.







I must say, that ace of spade insignia on the bottle sends it through the roof.


The Gold Bottle (ii): Blossa Glogg



A pretty interesting story I found:

Blossa Glogg + BVD Bottle Design : For the 8th year in a row, BVD presents the annual Blossa Glögg for 2010. This year's flavour is saffron and the bottle's colour is gold. Gold is an iconic colour that reflects the festive nature of Christmas as well as the taste: saffron with its golden colour is one of the most exclusive of all the spices. The Roman X is used as a symbol for the number 10, but is also a hint at the English X-mas.

"A vintage mulled wine for a new decade is a reason to celebrate. We wanted to create a really festive bottle, and the Roman X felt like a worthy symbol the decade's first annual edition". Says Susanna Nygren Barrett, Creative Director at BVD.

Blossa Annual Edition has become a success story which creates a demand around the mulled wine season every year thanks to a new flavour and design. Blossa Annual Edition exceeds sales from year to year, and continues to sell out within a few weeks, increasing customer expectations. The design plays an important role to create excitement and engagement around
the product.





Below, have a look at the bottle designs from years prior:

The Gold Bottle (iii): Moët & Chandon



A tip of the cap to anyone who is fortunate enough to have a bottle of this in the cellar. The bottle itself is gorgeous. One time to the most prolific champagne house in the biz. MOET + CHANDON.




MOET & CHANDON GOLDEN: Moët & Chandon has released The Jeroboam bottle, designed by Arthus Bertrand and covered in gold leaf for Christmas 2010. Only 1743 bottles will be produced as an homage to the vineyard's founding.
