Today has been a funny ole day. But to top it all is the sadness of Alexander McQueen's tragic death. It's oh so sad. I can't quite believe it. Only the other day was I talking about the marvel. And now this. It's such a sad situation. Here are two video clips to celebrate the talented innovator. These montages portray the magic his collections possess and present why he is so loved.

When I run in the dark, Daniel, I dream of home
Bat for Lashes "Daniel" illustration by me; clare and the bear.
I absolutely love Bat for Lashes!
Natasha Khan's voice is beautifully eerie and sits perfectly with her
ethereal songs. I adore her style, she's a magical hippie with a huge
essence of Peter Pan's Tiger Lily. Her quaint videos tell echoing
stories with heart breaking lyrics to match. The music video for
"Daniel" inspired me to draw. The haunting entities attired in black
which are tormenting Khan reminded me of the evil dress from
"Legend" where it seduces the princess into darkness, and also
reminded me of Gareth Pugh's early collections.
