Summer Weddings

If you're like me you've noticed that everyone around you is getting married.  Tis' the season for wedding bells.  For most retailers the peak of their sales occur during the holiday season, but in the wedding industry 'Bridal Christmas' happens between March-July.  This is the time everyone wants to get married, possibly because its usually the time where it's not too hot or cold to have an outdoor wedding.  With summer weddings you can expect to see a lot of bright colors and interesting floral arrangements because this is the time everything is in bloom.  Here are just a few pics of recent trends I've noticed.  It looks like a real shabby-chic style with lots of vintage accents.

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.
