I'm in BUST again!

Only this time, the tables have turned:


(Click the pic to read!)

My first published article! (Well, outside of my high school newsaper, that is...) It's on page 36 of the current issue which is, I might add, totally bitchin'. Flight of the Conchords and Elijah Wood (who I've had a mad crush on since...hell, I don't know, "Huckleberry Finn"? Not to mention the fact that he was, oh yeah, FRODO, basically the tiny mythical man I'm saving myself for, metaphorically of course).

Hopefully you'll be seeing more of my name in print in the months to come. I'm so excited, and may I please reiterate once more how much I love BUST? Hell, I'd schlep for just about any old rag at this point, but the fact that I actually get to contribute to a magazine run by people who happen rock so freakin' hard is just a dream come true. Ok, gush-fest over, and out...

(P.S. My mom just made a disgustingly cute post about me on her blog. I'm still just as scrappy, if not more so.)

Beige-y love



These vintage beige Ferragamo oxfords arrived a few days ago and I love them so much I'm almost afraid to sully them with my feet. They're not worthy! They're not worthy! (Which is partly why I'm only providing you with this poorly-doctored stock photo, that and the on-going, severe lack of natural light in my life...) They make me think of:

Are you ready for an organ solo?



Last night I went to see one of my favorite bands, Quintron and Miss Pussycat. They played my favorite song, "Place Unknown", and during "Swamp Buggy Badass" Mr. Quintron jumped off the stage and into the crowd and whipped us all into a frothy dance party frenzy.



(My boyfriend told me to wear something sparkly. He has good instincts.) Then Miss Pussycat put on a puppet show about a haunted art gallery.



So good! Now I want to learn to play the organ.

Oy vest



I really want to find myself some more vests, especially a little denim one (yes I know I am a bit late a few times over with that trend!) I love this white one, don't get me wrong, but I think we might all benefit from giving it a bit of a rest!



This video for Glósóli by Sigur Ros is SO AMAZING. Thanks for the heads up, Lula!
