If you haven’t checked out a Bella Rouge show yet, you’re seriously sleepin. They’re like a little burst of sunshine on a Sunday morning. Whatever that means. Anyways they’re dope.

This Thursday at the Hip Kitty in Claremont, they’ll be reunited with my other new favorite band, Cowgirls and Indians. They played with them at their last Hip Kitty show and there wasn’t an empty spot in the place. These two bands together are unstoppable so make sure you get there quick!
(And buy me a drink!)

I was due. Haven’t purchased any new shoes in….well, I can’t remember how long it’s been. Long time.

Bridal Couture is greater than Actual Marriage

I don’t think I’ll ever marry, but can’t I just wear all this beautiful bridal couture and lounge on some hay? Anja makes it look so good.

As If!!

28 Jan

Think back to simpler times.
Think back to days of Fresh Prince, 90201, and Salute Your Shorts.
Think back to when Brtittany Murphy was alive and chubby.

(Too far?)

Well throw your sensitivity away, find your humor, and throw on your best 90’s inspired outfit!
I am hosting a fashion contest at As If Fridays at Boardners in Hollywood.

Knee socks, chokers, baby doll dresses, bright colors, flannels, jeans with bad cut….let’s relive the 90’s!!
Mesg. me for guest list and RSVP on Facebook.

Hope to see you there!

Broken Bells Video Premier

27 Jan

Broken Bells is one of my highest musical expectations for 2010. Described as “melodic, but experimental” by the two members Danger Mouse and James Mercer, lead singer of the Shins.

I’m huge fans of both so I can’t wait to hear the entire album when it drops in March.

Check out their first music video directed by one of my favorites, Sophie Muller. I first got introduced to her when I was obsessed with No Doubt. She directed most of my favorite music videos of theirs which opened my eyes to the rest of her work.

I’m not suuuuper impressed by this song, but I am intrigued. It’s so nice to hear James’ voice again.
I love this video though. Sophie’s the man. Love her.
What do you think?
