Bjork Dork



“People always ask me about eskimos, but there are no eskimos in Iceland”
- Bjork

You may know her from the Olympics or probably her outrageous "swan dress", but Bjork is definitely the queen of bazaar music that sounds phenomenal. This Icelandic electronica, alternative rock, trip hop singer is definitely one of my favorite icons. She is so creative about her music and style that she doesn't believe in mistakes when she is recording, either it sounds good or it doesn't. Isn't that the way music should be? But if you haven't listened to her music before then I suggest you give her a try. Her distinct voice and hypnotic melodies will put you in a trance.

Lady GAGA all the way right? Well she isn't the first to decide to bend the rules of fashion. Bjork along with other fashion icons such as Grace Jones has always been mixing up the fashion world. GAGA also isn't the first to support the late Alexander McQueen. Mcqueen has always been a favorite of Bjork and she's been sporting his magical creations for a long time. In fact the dress in this music video "Who Is It" was created by Alexander Mcqueen. So am I a fan of Bjork? Well I would give her a kidney to see her sing live...no j/k that would hurt. But she is definitely one of my role models and favorite style icons.
