There they are: Novena Carmel and Itai Shapira - collectively BabyStone - walking up the drive, bags of clothes nestled in one arm, instruments in the other. Novena smiles an infectious grin, her hair an electric forest; Itai is subdued, the quiet cool but a Jimi Hendrix-twinkle.
If you haven't heard of BabyStone, that's quite alright - musical ignorance is to be forgiven - but if you happen to be reading this article and still wish not to hear them, then your insufferable lack of curiousity is rather revolting, because BabyStone is a modern funkadelic wonderment of soulful blues and jazzy bliss.
But for purposes of this article - this Fashion article -, musical ignorance and revolting lack of curiousity will be over-looked, because at the end of the day we don't care about the music they sing, but the threads they bring.
The day started with Novena in a dress so colorfully psychedelic only someone with Novena's confidence could pull it off, couple it with a pair of sparkling pink Liberace sneakers (her father Sly Stone - of Sly and the Family Stone - has a pair too, though in black) and she's pushed the ensemble to the envelope but looks brilliant in the process. Itai contains his cool in a smart D&G suit and white tee, a hat the glue that brings it to life.TO GET THIS BABYSTONE LOOK:
