hidden

 ph. unknown

Erika Spring (Au Revoir Simone) is coming out with an EP (on Cascine) July 10th and I am rather excited. I've always been a fan of the band and after hearing this track "Hidden", I can't wait to hear more of Erika's solo material.

teenage dream

I love these outtakes by Petra Collins of Tavi Gevinson for the latest issue of Oyster magazine.
(obviously, I couldn't narrow down my favorites...)

I feel you should definitely be listening to Heart or The Virgin Suicides soundtrack as you look through these photos and dream of a summer filled with adventuring and magic moments. 

Not only do I plan on dreaming of this but actually doing this. Me, my camera(s), my closest friends, mini road trips, mixtapes, day drinking, playing dress up (come on, you are never too old to play dress up), dancing (even if it's just a two person dance party like this Girls clip) and living freely like we did when we were kids. Remember when summer time was actually a break until adulthood struck and summer time was pretty much just like any other time except hotter? Even with work, I am going to make an effort to have these little escapes. Live in a paradise lost. I probably should start stocking back up on film and organizing my itunes to make some killer playlists...

Is it weird to be inspired by a 16 and 19 year old? I wish there were girls like Tavi and Petra around when I was a teenager. Maybe I would have actually had friends in high school or at least friends that shared my eccentric tastes (when I was 16 nobody I knew loved the movie Heathers and/or listened to Tears For Fears)...

Is anyone going to any of the Rookie Road Trip dates?

Absolutely adore these polaroids.
love, love, love

beach daze

On my first day back in New York, I definitely hit the ground running. 
It started with brunchin' it with Kristine that morning at Rabbit Hole (one of my fave spots). 

Then afterwards we all went to Ft. Tilden beach.  
sea-lion woman. 
After being completely exhausted from our hard lives chilling at the beach all day and me running on zero hours of sleep from the night before in Chicago (RE: previous post), we ended the night watching She's All That followed by 10 Things I Hate About You and passed out by midnight. Thug life, y'all. 

(NYC adventures to be continued...)

chillin by the fire while we eating fondue

Judge all you want but I am (still) obsessed with Justin Bieber's song 'Boyfriend'. It's like a PG version of the Ying-Yang Twins "Wait (The Whisper Song)", am I right or am I right?


 No? Okay that's fine...

Anyways, my main concern with this video is not the obvious comparison to Nsync's song/video 'Girlfriend' but to why I wasn't asked to be an extra in this video. 




Next, the OG to it all...
Sup, JT? Still love you. Marry me. Make music again, kthanxbai. 





P.S. I would have posted the version with Nelly (the superior version in my opinion) but the quality of the video was so awful.

hypnotic mind

I have a feeling JEFF's new album Hypnotic Nights is going to be in constant rotation for everyone this summer. There is nothing I can say about this band that I haven't already said in the past. Love these dudes.

lace

Outfit from the 13th of June.

Felt extremely girly that day and decide to wear an off white lace mini dress from H&M. Not shown are my black ankle booties from Urban Outfitters.  


Curled my hair and everything that day, just for it to rain and it turn into a hot mess later that night. Thanks mother nature. Always keeping it real.

the wait is over under halcyon skies

My favorite roids from last week at the Maccabees show in NYC. 
Such a good night. 


and it all goes quite behind my eyes.

I can't wait to see this film. It was one of the trailers before Moonrise Kingdom and I definitely teared up a bit.

"may the bridges I burn light the way" - Dylan McKay

Okay, so I am all sorts of behind on updating this....

Recently, I got back from Chicago and NYC. Although, I only spent a brief time in Chicago, I always love to see that city is still keeping it classy. Red and Blue line after dark never ceases to amaze me. 

This New York trip was one of my more fun visits. It was great catching up with old friends and making new ones, as well as seeing two great bands (Mystery Jets and The Maccabees) in the process. As usual, there wasn't enough time to see everyone but there is always next time. I have so many new photos to show and dropped off 4 more rolls of film today that I am excited to get back and share with you all. 

Until I get those organized for posting here, I'll be backtracking and writing about my trip to Denver, outfit posts, a couple of mixtapes, you know the usual...

Yet here are some fun photos from when I was hanging out with my friends Natalie and John in Chicago. We got late night BBQ, creeped on the internet and watched 90210 until I had to leave for the airport at 3am...5 hours in the city well spent. 

 
Natalie, she's all that. 
 Just hangin' with my bestie Luke.

it's an obsession.

i've told whole lies, with a half smile

Thanks to A, I've become secondhand obsessed with St. Vincent. I adored her before but now I think, actually I know, I am slightly in love with Miss Annie Clark.

jam. 

Expect a slew of outfit posts, well, posts in general for the next few days. I've been slacking on updates as usual. 

Anyways, while doing some purging of my clothes and I found my overalls from middle school. They still fit and I plan on living in them. What age am I again?
