RITA ORA - THE NEW 'IT' GIRL?


Same top Rihanna had on at Coachella...so now we know Rita rocked it first.  




















We first saw Rita Ora on Drake's "Over" video, but the world soon got to learn that this British born beauty is more than just a video girl.  She has quickly made a name for herself in the music industry; and it's no wonder seeing that she's signed to Jay Z's Roc Nation. Moreover, Rita is becoming one to keep an eye on in the fashion game.  Comparisons have been made between herself and Rihanna; but personally I'm liking this girl a whole lot more (fresh, fashionable and lady-like). It's about time that someone came along to give Riri some healthy competition.  As for Rita being the new "IT GIRL"...you decide...

Takashi Murakami is a prolific contemporary Japanese artist who works in both fine arts media, such as painting, as well as digital and commercial media. He attempts to blur the boundaries between high and low art. He appropriates popular themes from mass media and pop culture, then turn them into thirty-foot sculptures, "Superflat" paintings, or marketable commercial goods such as figurines or phone caddies. He has commissioned work for the likes of Pharrell Williams and Nigo (founder of Bathing Ape) and in 2007 did the amazing artwork for Kanye West's graduation album. Takashi is definitely a force to be reckoned with.
