Today marks International Women's Day. And what better way to mark it, than by taking a moment to celebrate all those women who have empowered us to be better, stronger and fairer people over the years. The women who have battled stereotypes, changed the world's perceptions of what it means to be a woman and inspired so many others out there to be the best they can.
With the long weekend wrapping up, we're taking some time to lay back and recoup. Seeing us through are the sweet vocals of Nico. The German songstress / model who caught the eye of Andy Warhol back in the swinging sixties and quickly became one of Warhol's superstar icons of the decade.
Take a run through a little sample of tunes from Nico and the Velvet Underground to help recover from the long weekend and ease you back into the week.
Famous for being cool without needing to try in the slightest, Chloë Sevigny has been an underground style icon for almost three decades.
Chloë's newly released book (part biography, part personal journal) charts her journey from intern to actress to high fashion muse - and all that came in between. With a foreword from Sonic Youth front-woman Kim Gordon, 'Kids' film stills, candid snaps taken by high school friends as well as pictures from the likes of Terry Richardson and Juergen Teller, you know it's going to be the best mix of 90s cult culture.
