MUSIC MONDAY: WE FOUND LOVE IN A HOPELESS PLACE

Watching two people fall in love via a drug soaked frenzy is straight-up-seductive. I saw this video for Rihanna's latest jam, We found love in a hopeless place, and was speechless; who knew Rihanna could be so effing cool? My initial thoughts were: I need those Christmas lights  in her bedroom. Where does one procure that denim romper? And does Rihanna actually wake up in the morning with her hair looking that good? The video was directed by the effervescently cool Melina Matsoukas who has also shot videos for Lily Allen, Beyonce and Lady Gaga to name a few. No big deal. No big deal at all. It's on my bucket list for 2012 to direct my first music video and you bettah believe I'll be starting my online inspiration board with this puppy. ENJOY!
