Cardigan craze.

I love ALL these cardigans from GAP. 

I own the burnt sienna one at the top and am kind of obsessed with it. I find that I have an undeniable weakness for cardigans, little black dresses, ballerina flats, loose striped t-shirts, vintage inspired floral collared button up blouses and sun dresses. I will go shopping and buy a version of each almost every time. I just can't help myself. 

What are your fashion weaknesses? 

Such cute little babes.

Lately, I've been grooving to the tambourine shakin', slow singin', echoe lovin' ways of the Smith Westerns.
Specifically their album Dye It Blonde.

Here they are in all their glory (in a tree?):
 Cameron, Cullen and Max

They are quite handsome but I can't help but think that they are a little young for me. (I mean, come on, who can resist the long, careless hair in their eyes?!..Or the Jew fro, depending on your taste.) BUT they weren't old enough to buy a beer when they released their first album in 2009. I suppose their baby faces and youthful lyrics are what draws me to them. They're like my little brother's cute friends that I make fun of but secretly think they are much cooler than me. And I would most definitely buy them a beer.

Ok, ok another picture.

But really, their music is good too! Dance party!

If men and wine don't kill me...

Troubles up and down the road
And trials all the way around
Never knew what trouble was
Till my honey threw me down
With nothing but old ragged clothes
My heart strings broken to shreds
Blues creeping over my body
Queer notions flying in my head
The easiest thing I ever done
Was loving and drinking wine
The hardest thing I ever done
Was paying off a judge's fine
I've never worked for pleasure
Peace on earth I cannot find
The only thing I surely own
Is a worried and troubled mind
If men and wine don't kill me
The one more plan to find
Soak up all the old rub-alcohol
Ease all trouble off my mind


Rub Alcohol Blues by The Fiery Furnaces

A little interpretation of my friend and I via my android phone; on which I am typing this very blog. Gotta love technology!

Miss Peanut

Dear World,
This is my Peanut. 

Isn't she just precious?

This is when I caught her in the cupboard where I keep her treats.

Cat nap.

Badass.

Silly girl.

She is a lady....most of the time. 

Two-toned hair

Your thoughts, feelings, emotions? 

I am thinking about trying this with my hair. 

I am getting a bit bored with my long brown locks. 

I have short bangs but I need a little something more...
