Rising Star: Lianne La Havas

As usual I’m always looking for the next biggest thing whether it’s fashion or music. Well, Lianne La Havas, a singer songwriter from England is a bit of both. Lianne has a unique way of mixing jazz, R&B, hip-hop, and folk all together in a lot of ways she reminds me of Janelle Monae and Estelle.

Aside from her music, I also like her style. For one I’m a fan of natural hair and she wears it so well. Secondly, she has a very preppy vintage look to her. From what I’ve seen she wears a lot of button downs and patterned shirts. I think she’s an interesting talent who will probably generate a big buzz stateside soon so look out for her!

Side note: She just released her first album, Is Your Love Big Enough? I haven’t listened to the whole project yet but I really love this song No Room For Doubt and Lost & Found.
