Band of Horses has dropped another ‘F-bomb’- having Factory as their first single taken from their much anticipated third album, Infinite Arms which was released in 2010. Factory is not as feel-good catchy as their other songs. It is a melancholic song that serenades the soul. The heartfelt in Ben Bridwell’s voice can somehow makes us cry- you can almost feel the amount of sincerity in each note. We know that this is not the latest single but hey a good song will always remain timeless! Agree?!

A football lover and a Play Station addict, seems to describe most guys in general. But what sets Fahmi apart from the rest is the fact that he loves to experiment with his clothes. He pays attention to details which lots of guys tend not to care. He rarely purchase designer goods (the ones that he owns are given to him as gifts), he is more interested in finding treasures from bundle shops and bazaars. He also admires Ed Westwick's suave and tries to incorporate it in his daily fashion. He believes that one can look simple, cool and well put together with a touch of swagger if they pay attention to details. Talking about swag, fahmi definitely owns every inch of it and still maintain to be humble and grounded, putting his love ones first before anything.

Let's get to know: LITTTER SF
We from The Unfolded are constantly driven to find new interesting individuals who are bold enough to believe in their dreams and actually living in it. Rae and Mackenzie are examples of people who we would like to be stucked with at the same dinner table. These 2 amazing sisters blew our mind by the fact that they’re making jewelleries out of tools given from their grandma- the woman who is responsible for flourishing them with the knowledge on how to create beautiful pieces of jewellery that everyone is excited to put on. These sisters are the co-founders of Litter SF which became and international hit in only few months. The pieces of jewellery that they create are not the normal kind. The pieces are made to accessorize different unusual parts of the body that many of us never thought of, such as the legs, shoulder, elbows- unconventional ways of wearing jewelleries but they made it work. Apart from that, they produce pieces to accessorize the shoes, ties, collars and to-die-for head gears. Their jewelleries are not only made for women, they also make pieces for men. Overall, their line offers accessories for those who love to look edgy, different and a bit rustic- nothing like Tiffany’s but will still be envied by many.
What fascinates us is that their jewelleries are made from chains and other metal parts that are found in thrift shops and flea markets. You know someone is a genius if they can change something that people “throw away” to gold-making hits and most talked about pieces by fashion magazines. Judging by the line, it’s obvious that these 2 sisters are though cookies and won't take no for an answer and are constantly working day and night to put together Litter SF. We all know that to build an empire online and to go global in a very short period is not easy it takes a bucket full of courage! You can buy their stuff online and also be inspired by their own personal blog- which literally feels like running through their personal mood board. COVET!

#nowplaying: FEIST- How Come You Never Go There
Taken from her 3rd much anticipated album Metals, How Come You Never Go There is the first single by Canadian singer, Leslie Feist or better known as Feist. The song is not a sing-along fun catchy hit like one of her famous song, 1234. Her new album Metal is a compilation of dark, tense soul-blues songs- she serenades us with an aching love story. Hauntingly during the chorus she sings, “how come you never go there? How come I'm so alone there?” Feist’s piercing voice sounded perfect. You can definitely feel her inner sadness. The sounds of horns and electric guitar added raw element to it. A great song taken from a great album by a great singer! And Feist is one the acts for this year’s Laneway Festival in Singapore. Stoked!

To describe Emmy as mainstream and conventional is far from correct or perhaps, even a fallacy. Her non-conformist style and individualistic fashion sense transpires through her Tumblr and the music she listens to. Attributed to her distinct preference on music, she met a group of people on Last.fm. From there, she contributed her writings in killedincars and junkmedia. Perhaps it’s a no brainer that her taste in music reflects her unique interpretation of fashion. Besides that, she was lucky to spend some time with Hana Tajima, the designer of Maysaa.
