LA Crass... Wedding?

-Lana Del Rey

What's cooler than being cool? L.A. cool apparently, and brides are putting a very unique spin on their wedding themes.  What is L.A. Crass you ask? It's fast pace and indelicate city living.  This isn't the boho beachy lifestyle that most people associate with the west coast.  Instead its motels, cigarettes, and smeared red lipstick.  Here's a little inspiration board i came up with

What's In My Headphones?

Over the last week or so I had been re-exposed to the artist Lana Del Rey.  I had heard her music some time before, but never gave it my full attention.  Well after hearing her song Brite Lites on YouTube with one of my favorite choreographers dancing to it I fell in love.  So like I do with any new artist I like, I downloaded all of her songs including her new album Born To Die.  I love this album because she managed to perfectly execute great lyrics, mesmerizing vocals, and retro-inspired instrumentals.  In one word... Musicality! Her style is a classic combination of 60's pinup/gangsta/awesomeness... she kinda reminds me of Santigold.  Any artist who can make pictures appear in my mind with their music automatically wins me over.
Any who... Here is a clip of her work you can decide for yourself.
