  • Starter teams up with The National Hockey League on a line of chic hockey merch

When it comes to style, we are all inspired by what we see; whether it be a well-dressed celebrity, a blow-your-mind catwalk presentation or even a fashionable passerby.

As fashion editors, we’re moved by all of the above, and then some. We’re exposed to under-the-radar labels; we get a first-hand look at collections months before they hit stores; we attend VIP events; we’re tapped into brands with chic-yet-cheap offerings and we shop — a lot.

To share our knowledge, FEMAIL brings you Style Swoon, a weekly series of the latest, greatest and on the verge. We hope this Friday series will serve as a buying guide and point of inspiration for all.

This week’s focuses on drops that are just in time for the holidays.

Eighteen-year-old singer-songwriter and Seal’s protégé, Zia Victoria, dropped her cover of Joni Mitchell’s iconic song ‘River,’ on December 15 — to benefit an important cause — Jewel’s #NotAloneChallenge

New Music Debut 

Zia Victoria releases ‘River’ with support of iconic female artist, Jewel.

Eighteen-year-old singer-songwriter and Seal’s protégé, Zia Victoria, dropped her cover of Joni Mitchell’s iconic song ‘River,’ on December 15 — to benefit an important cause — Jewel’s #NotAloneChallenge.

‘River’ is one of Joni’s most popular and most listened to songs about the recent split of a romantic relationship and the feelings of loneliness that follow.

Zia, who recently opened up for Seal on his UK/Paris tour, hopes that her timely release of ‘River’ is an opportunity to use her voice to encourage people who may be dealing with anxiety, depression or loneliness to reach out for help — especially during the holidays.

To drive mental health awareness and fundraising, Zia has teamed up with Jewel and will donate a % of sales from ‘River’ to Jewel’s #NotAloneChallenge, a social media campaign reminding people they are #NotAlone and benefiting InspiringChildren.org.

‘I recall mentoring Zia when she was young and specifically about Joni, who is one of my heroes and inspirations. Seeing the next generation pay homage to one of the best singer-songwriters in history is beautiful to see and it’s special to see how well this release aligned with our #NotAloneChallenge,’ said Jewel.
