I look for peace but see I don't attain


My recently found and miraculously cured iPod has been crammed full of summertime music by the likes of Blink 182, Common, Snoop, Passion Pit, etc., but there's not one artist I love more at the moment than Kid Cudi.

I mean, just look at him!:

Down to earth and a downright sweetheart, what's not to love?

Check out Whitney Spaner's Sounds of Summer story on him over at papermag.com (or click here).

I hear he's destined to appear on a new HBO show in fall. Eee!

"I don't go in the booth like, ‘I gotta make a rap song.' I kind of just do whatever feels right, and it's always just off emotion."

Yessir.

It's time for Miles to make a new frieeeeend!

wantneedwantneed


My wardrobe is begging me for a few additions from Wildfox:



I love the slight v-neck and block print!



...and who couldn't use a little more glitter in their closet?

Ya know, if my bank account strikes up a 'tude about these soon-to-be purchases, there's always...my birthday (hint).

fashion for a cause


After browsing for a bit on my new favorite site, yayeveryday.com, I found this tote designed by Jim Cork:


Though he says it's just a prototype for a project, I think this bag has such a strong message in just a simple statement.

Stylish, simple, and strong.

Who wouldn't want one of these bags?

I mean, it's kind of brilliant.


As a promo for Weeds, bouquets of non-thc-containing pot plants were sent out in joint-like wrappers to the press.

Righteous, dude.

Hi.
Yeah, hi.

Oof.
Can you tell apartment hunting isn't going so well for me?
Parents, guard your treehouses unless you want yours truly asking to use your bathroom in the middle of the night.

whirlwind weekend



Hello, lovies!

My posts might be few and far between these next few weeks thanks to this past activity-(and beignet)-packed weekend in New Orleans and the next couple weeks Miles and I will be spending in Europe!

--

Some sites I've stumbled upon and MUST be shared:

1. textsfromlastnight.com:
an example of a typical daily post -
(805): Dude. I just woke up without a shirt or bra on. Apparently I fell asleep with a quesadilla in my mouth. I can feel my liver hating me."

Love it.

2. passiveaggressivenotes.com:
warning - when I found this site, I spent the next 2 hours reading through posts.
aaaaaaddictive.
example? -

Happppppy Tuesday!

Please allow me to present

“If I didn’t already know I was listening to Animal Collective on these headphones, I would bet myself $100 that I was listening to Animal Collective on these headphones.” *


“Hey, do you have a light? How about a BeDazzler?”
