SHOP: Zara, $90 / Asos, $46 / COS, £79 (Europe only)

Why buy a dress just for Valentines Day? If you’re like me, buy something that you can wear to a rehearsal dinner and throw your denim jacket over and wear with your Converse to lunch.

PS that COS dress is much nicer on… heavy silk top with a fitted jersey skirt.

FILL THE WELL with AL LEWIS

FillTheWell

In this series, I ask other songwriters about their quest for inspiration and how they tackle the day-to-day tasks of writing quality, engaging songs. Behind every good song is a hard-worker. I want to know how songwriters work and how they fill their well so it never goes dry.

AL LEWIS is a Welsh singer-songwriter living in Tooting, South London. Writing music in both Welsh & English, Al composes modern folk songs reminiscent of classic 70s songwriters. He’s received several well-deserved accolades in Wales (ahem a nomination for the Welsh Music Prize), airplay on BBC Radio 1, 2 & 6 Music, and has just opened for Jools Holland at the Royal Albert Hall. Tomorrow night (December 5th), I am opening for Al at Music from the Market – a quarterly acoustic show series curated by Al & Theresa Heath in the historic Tooting Market.
