I don't really talk about things pertaining to womens fashion on this blog, I try to keep the subject matter strictly dickly (wait...I don't think I used that right...) but this editorial is just so AWESOME!!! Something about the "bad-girl-in-a-small-town-with-a-Farrah-Fawcett-haircut" vibes is totally hot to me! Plus the sleazy rock and roll vibes of it kinda remind me of the new Justice album!(GO READ MY REVIEW FOR FIASCO MAGAZINE!!)

whoa.

Excuse my absence, I was just helping my mom build a soon to be MULTITRILLION DOLLAR EMPIRE! lol.

My mom is in the process of starting a natural hair and body product line and I've been acting as her personal assistant, and last month was like fashion week for hair or something lol. The last couple of weeks have been filled to the brim with countless trade shows, expos, workshops and SO. MUCH. SHEA. BUTTER.

but more on that later.

We wrapped up all of that insanity with a nice little vacay in Myrtle Beach, it was sooooo beautiful and relaxing (it was kinda cold but whatevz, thats what Jacuzzis are for). 

NY coverage should be out this week.

 *I took all these pics while we were in SC
here, have this mini-playlist. you deserve it.

Just a few songs that I've been listening to non-stop for the last few days..
1. Jai Paul - BTSU
THIS DUDE IS AWESOME!!!!!!! he only has 2 songs and a preview,and  I am DYING for some sort of hint at a full length album!!! he kind of reminds me of Toro y Moi plus he sounds like and angel when  sings the "f-word" (him and Thom Yorke :))


2. Friendly Fires - Hawaiian Air
Literally one of the most best-est songs ever!! Friendly Fires has been on my "kinda cool" list since "Paris" but this is just awesome!! for the first minute and a half I was kinda iffy about it, but at like 1:40 I got goosebumps and somewhere between 2:50 and the end, I got mildy emotional....its that good. Airy dream pop about traveling the globe sang by a boy with an accent:) what more could you ask for?


3.  Tyler, The Creator -Transylvania
I love Tyler. Thats all.
"Goddamn I love bitches, especially when they only suck dick and wash dishes"

you know you want (to forgive me for missing #SaturdayJamz)

omg you guys!!! I totally forgot about SJ!!!I'm sowwwy!! :/ #suckyblogger

but anyway watch this video and laugh and think about how perfect Raquel and Karen look (don't you just wanna softly rub your cheek against Karen's hair and brush it forever and ever....cuz...thats totally not creepy...at all.....) and how much you just wanna play "Just Dance" on Wii with them and how awkward yet simultaneously cool the male models look gettin' dey groove on and how adorbz Alber is and sigh wistfully while trying to stare past your cold, dark Lanvin-less existence......oh sorry I was venting, just watch the video.

(SS11's was pretty rad too :):))

SJ #15

1. Fall Boys Creek Choir - James Blake & Bon Iver // HO-LY SHIT YOU GUYS!!!!!! This is literally one of the best songs EVER!!!Everything about this is PERFECT!! (somewhere in the world a pitchfork writer had an orgasm and died. rip.)

2. Madame Butterfly - Malcolm McLaren//Never really listened to anything by Malcolm McLaren, but I stumbled across this the other day and just fell in love! The song is so awesome and the video is just stunning!!! every single frame looks like a painting....so gorgeous!

3.  In Love With You - Erykah Badu ft. Stephen Marley//As previously stated Erykah is my Fairy Godmother and shes perfect and she deserves to be bowed down to and this song is just sooo effing beautiful!!

SJ #14

Besides Watch The Throne, this is what I've been listening to lately.....

1. How Come You Never Go There - Feist//SO EXCITED FOR HER NEW ALBUM!!!!!!!! AHHGGGH!!SHES SO PERFECT!!!! (also the composition kinda sound like Robin Pecknold had something to do with this! #DOUBLEWIN)

2. Only Girl In The World (cover)  - XIU XIU//never really been into XIU XIU (even tho he's kind of a hodgepodge of all of my favorite artist......) but his version of this ,already bombass song, is just rocking my world right now!!!

3. Grove St. Party - Lil Wayne ft. Lil B// I'm a huge shameless fan of Lil Wayne, Lil B and the original version of this song by Waka Flocka, so this is just way to much WINNNN!! (plus Lil B's laugh at 03:50 is sooo funny to me!!lmao:D)

Saturday Jamzzz: Completely OBSESSED edition!!!!!

NOBODY understands how much I love VAMPIRE WEEKEND!!!

I am literally obsessed!

I was ULTRA-PISSED when they came here last April and I missed them!!

PLEASSSEEEE COME BACK!!

Saturday Jammzzz: Old Faves Edition

JUSTICE

motherf*cker

same green&gold/nature vibez, but more teen angst/self-discovery/defiance!:)

napoleon, runaway, kurt, kelly, lindsay 

p.s.

Yes, I did miss SaturdayJamz this week and yes I am very sorry, but I have a life!!

loljk I was at my Grandma's house!!!:)<3

Take this as a peace-offering for my blatant blog-neglect

I'm soooooooo glad that they won that Grammy! I was a little irritated at first, cuz they beat Gaga(PAWS UP!!), but now I see that they really deserved it.This album is AMAZING and Arcade Fire has been making kick ass music for the longest with little praise,outside of the hipster social circles. So I'm really happy for them and I'm glad that America is finally recognizing music outside of the mainstream.

(Animal Collective should win one next!!!lol)

(Wait NO! that would be a horrible idea! If I hear one of the kids at my school singing "Fireworks" I WILL CHOKE A BITCH!! srsly they just need to stay "That band that I listen to and nobody else knows and when I bring them up in conversations with my friends are all like this")(oh damn I sound like Hipster Kitty, nowlol). 

But anyway this song has been on replay for the last week or so, plus the video totally fits the teen angst-vibezzz

SaturdayJammmz: erica wright edition

OMG In my last SJ(which actually came on a Monday, so it should be classified as MJ) I failed to mention that The Queen/My FairyGodMother/Mother Earth is gonna be there!!!!
