This is Little A.

Shirt: Zara, Skirt: Forever 21, Bracelets: JewelMint, Shoes: Urban Outfitters, Ring: Forever 21

So, we realized that we actually never mentioned that this is A's little sister in the pictures and not one of the three of us. So, yeah. She doesn't really enjoy doing being in the pictures too much, but we usually just make her whenever A feels like taking the pictures or is too tired from work or school. The benefits of having a younger sibling!

Mint Perfection.

Jacket: Zara

Holy crap! Isn't this jacket minty-studded perfection?! I love Zara so much more now for bringing this jacket into my life. I always name the jackets that truly affect my sound (I know it sounds nuts, but I'm very passionate about my jackets).  I'm thinking of naming this jacket after Hannah, the lead singer of Grouplove. Her personality and energy really go well with this jacket. So everyone, I'd like you to meet Hannah. =)

I'd just like to say that I don't approve of the name Hannah for this jacket. It reminds of the bad times in season six of the show Bones. That's all. I was thinking maybe this one could be Michael after Geographer's lead singer. Serena (A's leather jacket) and Michael sound better together than Hannah and Serena. Doesn't have the same ring, just saying. ;-) Unfortunately, A has the last say. :-(

My favorite things.

My wardrobe seems to be overflowing with floral accessories recently. I think the beautiful spring days are the reason why. I've been trying to acquire more foot friendly shoes that are just as beautiful as heels, and these seem to be doing the trick. =)

BFD 2012.

This past weekend, I went to BFD again. Honestly guys, BFD is spectacular because you pay like 40 dollars and get to see an abundance of bands. Most other festivals make you save the whole year to go and you barely get to see everyone on the lineup. At BFD I always get to see everyone I want to see. Last year I got to see some of the finest bands and this year was no exception. I saw several bands, but I'm only going to talk about the ones that really made an impact on me. I already mentioned in my last post about seeing Geographer. They were the first band I saw and as I've said before and will say again, they were "mind-blowingly" marvelous. I always love when a band uses a groovy (yeah I just used that word) instrument. In Geographer's case, they use the cello.  Geographer had a very laid back and relaxed feel. After Geographer, I saw Grouplove which had the completely opposite effect.


I had heard a few of Grouplove's songs beforehand and liked them. I didn't love them like I did Geographer. However, after their amazing performance I changed my mind. The presence this band has is incredible. The minute they stepped on stage I was screaming my head off. The whole entire band was jumping, dancing, and anything else to convey the joy they were feeling while performing. I felt the love they have for their music, which I don't see that often from people. Hannah Hooper is one of the lead singers and my new girl crush. This woman is crazy cool. I've never seen anyone dance as hard as she did and have a smile on the whole time. Her dancing made me dance and I wondered if I could ever be as cool as her? Also to add the cherry on top she has amazing style. She wore a white lace dress and spiked boots. Now if that doesn't equal awesome, I don't know what the hell does.

The Naked and Famous were on the main stage and we had lawn seats so it really affected my ability to fully enjoy them. I couldn't get that amazing feeling you get from being a few feet away from the band. The lead singer's, Alisa, vocals are bananas. They sound exactly the same live as online. I'm not writing much, but seriously I was so far away I couldn't get much else besides the fact that they are awesome and Alisa is super cute. I have a new goal of seeing the Naked and Famous in a smaller venue, so I can fully enjoy their phenomenal music.
Can't wait for BFD next year!!

Geographer.


Hello guys! So yesterday was one of the most wonderful days of my short life. I got to meet one of my favorite band's lead singer, Michael Deni of Geographer at BFD. I've been a huge fan of this incredibly talented band for over a year now. However, it was Micheal Deni's voice that got me hooked. His voice is indelible, brilliant, and insert any other adjective that means fucking awesome. When I heard Michael Deni live I got chills up and down my body, his voice pierces your soul. I know that was a cheesy thing to say, but it's the truth. I was surrounded by people at BFD and I felt I  really enjoyed the experience that is Michael Deni's voice, it needed to be only me and his voice, so I closed my eyes and instantaneously I was sent to a universe filled with unicorns and rainbows where only marvelous things can happen. In the photo above you see a composed normal looking girl, however that wasn't really the case.

I saw Michal Deni walking through the crowd as me and my friends were headed out to rest, and as soon as I saw him I pounced on him (not literally). I just started saying everything that came to mind like how much I love him, his music, and other things I can't really remember and then shamelessly asked for a hug. Micheal Deni was so sweet and kind and gave me a hug which I really didn't want to end I was seriously contemplating staying like that for the rest of my life.... just kidding.. not really. Unfortunately, I let go and asked for a picture to remember the magical moment. I know I sound like a stalker, but it's just really intense love. On a side note, it's funny how things work. I mean, if my friends didn't want to leave that second we would've never bumped into Michael. You've got to love fate sometimes.

I saw many other bands at BFD which I will talk about later, but I had to dedicate this post to this amazing man with the world's most perfect beard. If you haven't checked out Geographer yet, I would do that right now. Here is their band page.

I love you Sonam.


Oh Sonam, why are you so lovely? You can never be disappointed with Sonam because she always surprises you. Sonam is the only Bollywood actor that has an amazing fashion sense, and is always trying something different. Also, Sonam commits to her outfits. She makes sure the makeup, hair and the SHOES go with her outfit. Everyone else in Bollywood seems to half-ass their outfits, which is so freaking annoying. When you plan your outfit, everything else is very essential to the outfit also!

 Now onto the Cannes outfits. Sonam's McQueen gown was beautiful but it didn't measure up to last years Gaultier gown. However, I still appreciated that Sonam tried to do something different because she didn't look horrible. It was still a nice look. Her last look for the Cannes film festival was my absolute favorite! Her Dolce and Gabanna dress was gorgeous. As I said before Sonam commits to her whole look, so her hair and accessories were just as magnificent. The days before the Cannes red carpet Sonam gave us a few looks like her black and white Naeem Khan gown which was stunning. The bow was a little overwhelming on her, but besides that I was very pleased. Sonam wore a Marni dress for her Loreal interviews. It was so cute, and I love the beaded detailing. It was very Sonam.

If it wasn't for Sonam, I would be looking at horrible dressed Bollywood actors constanly. For example, for one of the biggest nights in Bollywood, Karan Johar's birthday party, no one looked nice! It was horrible. It was like a who's who of horrendously dressed people! It feels good to get that off my chest. Sorry, but sometimes I need to vent.
