I heard about the collocation between old line shoe company Bass and the up-and-coming dress designer Rachel Antonoff many months ago and I was...I was struck! Every pair is just soooo beautiful! Making everything even more fabulous (a near impossible task) the lookbook (shown above) tells the story of an adorable white kitten named Marshmellow who lives in the shoes and his best friend, the ever-cool Tennessee Thomas, who have a lemonade stand that nobody comes to so they have milkshakes and end up getting jobs at the soda shop...it's just so wonderful, ahahah!!!! (sorry those are my happy noises)
I waited for all of those months until I could finally have a pair of my own, until one day while stalking Rachel Antonoff's clothing via polyvore I found out that they were being
sold at Free People. I had never actually been to Free People, but many of the girls in my grade shop there, so I had no trouble finding one that was very near my school. I begged my brother to take me after school on Friday (I was just soooo excited), but then they didn't have them at the store!!!! I was crushed, but with the help of "Eye of the Tiger" I was "pumped" again and my dad and I ordered them online. Oh I wish that was where the story ended, but no! The shoes didn't show up! My dad kept calling them (probably because I asked him about them everyday) and every time he called the shipping date got later and later. I was defeated,
I was in a glass case of emotion, but then one day as I looked up from my homework I saw the the ever-trusty UPS man throwing down a box and there they were! Oh and they are perfect! (see them above)

I had heard this song somewhere I don't remember a while back, but Romy really got me into it. It was actually a very nice time; it was her birthday and we were driving down Sunset and, as she said, the beginning is very beautiful and there is something about it makes you feel very, I can't really describe it, alive and like you're seeing the world for the first time.

Today is my birthday and in spirit of it being a (surprisingly) nice day I am sharing In an Aeroplane over the Sea, which may very well be my favourite song ever! This song is like a beautiful world...enough said
I started listening to Crystal Castles because I needed some new music and they are one of those bands that seeing their name as I scroll through the artists on my Ipod makes me very happy, and I learned from Romy that their lead singer is very cool. Admittedly, these aren't the best reasons for listening to a band, but it worked out for me because their music turned out to be aaammmmaaazzzzzingggg!
I went today to see Clare Roja's show at Prism Gallery, very excited and eagerly anticipating, but nothing could have prepared me for what I saw...It was literally one of the best shows I have seen! She had these gigantic wonderful paintings with abstract shapes and these fantastic very small paintings of women and flowers, that all just made me melt. Also, the installation was fantastic, with art covering every surface including the stair railing and the ceiling piping.
After my dad continually making fun of me for having 49 "on the go" playlists, I finally got my act together and cleaned out my Itunes library. I am sure glad I did because it gave me a good chance to listen to some music that I hadn't heard for a while because I tend to go through stages where I listen to the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over again until I get really sick of it.
