I’ve been listening to a lot of the U Penn public radio recently, which reminds of the University of Washington’s famous KEXP I used to listen to in high school and sometimes still stream at my desk during the day. Those college stations are always good for when you’re sick of all the music you always…

J. Crew Baseball tee (similar cute ones here and here), Gap Jeans, Rebecca Minkoff studded wallet clutch, various collected necklaces These emerald jeans I just picked up at Gap make me feel like the Fall, it’s a comin’.

monday love
Happy Monday everyone! Hope you all had great weekends, and are coping with Monday better than I am- I’m struggling a bit today I have to admit. My weekend was so nice and relaxing – a little daisy flower crown making (how very Drew Barrymore of me) and a trip to the burbs to Target…

J Brand jeans, Zara heels “We’re the only band that kept the guts, and kept the excitement, and kept the belief, you know. We never sidetracked. We never went the way of the Clash, and never wanted to get into the discotheques that bad.” – Joey Ramone Ripped jeans always seem to remind me of…

bright light
… Recently I have become a little obsessed with Brit singer-songwriter Ellie Goulding. I was lucky enough to get to hear to perform her own stuff (including the infectious ‘Lights‘) live at Coachella last month, but lately I have been discovering her vast array of beautiful and unique covers. I love the raw, endearing sweetness…

régine!
I am having serious rockstar stage persona fantasies, people. If you follow me on twitter (or facebook), you may have heard that I was lucky enough to see my favorite band, The Arcade Fire, not once, but twice this weekend at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley (an awesome outdoor amphitheatre in the UC Berkeley campus, you…
