Listen Up! Pharrell Williams

It’s likely that you (and your mom and your bestie and your cube-mate) have already seen the video for Pharrell’s incredibly catchy song, “Happy.” But yesterday was the first day of spring, the birds are chirping, the sun is out, and we’re feeling… well, happy.

The song itself was originally written for Despicable Me 2 (which is why some Minions make cameos in the video) and was nominated for an Academy Award. And the video? It started out life as a revolutionary, interactive, real-time music video called 24 Hours of Happy. THAT evolved into 24 Hours of Happiness, a collaboration with the United Nations for the second annual International Day of Happiness (March 20). Basically, it’s one big domino effect of joy. So go ahead—take a work break and practice your moves.

The campaign images depict an English summer day in London’s Kew Gardens. Elegant and provocative, the latest offering of shoes elevates easy-to-wear, everyday styles and shapes.

“Spring ’14 is an ode to the English rose, fusing London-cool with designs to suit our daily uniform. Nordstrom will see exciting additions to our signature B Series stilettos, boots, high sandals, slip-ons, flatforms and flat sandals elevated with a crafty palette and materials for the art of living,” says Rebecca Farrar-Hockley, the brand’s creative director.

With spring in the air, celebrate the changing season by slipping into a new pair of Kurt Geiger London Pumps.

One month ago today, we posted a shot of legendary New York Times photographer Bill Cunningham asking Crystal Nicodemus, our Fashion Week street style photographer, to jump for a photo.

Watch the video below for Bill’s explanation of the blue and pink trend, and you’ll see Crystal’s jump shot at the very end.
