here’s a new clothing line that is not only stylish but also socially conscious.  nau is run by a small group of people who are “committed to the power of business as a force of change.”  the goal is to “demonstrate the highest levels of citizenship in everything we do.”  now that’s something i’ll dress to!

make sure to check out their *thought kitchen* and *the collective* – it’s something we can all benefit from!

my friend just introduced me to this new artist who is incredibly talented.  his music is full of depth but yet so relaxing to listen to. federico aubele’s music is termed as latin/lounge/trip hop. the arist, who is originally from argentina has been touring the world for the past five years. more from the ESL music website:

Despite some of the remaining effects from Argentina’s economic and political crisis in 2001, Aubele loves Buenos Aires. “It’s like going out with a crazy, but incredibly beautiful, charming and seductive woman. She might drive you insane at times, but when you take a step back and look at her, you’re reminded how much you love her and why.”

listen to: en el desierto – i promise, you’ll love it.
