Everyday we wake up, we choose love we choose light
And if you were wondering what the new iphone commercial song was: You, Me and the Bourgeoisie by The Submarines.
I tried to do handstands for you, but everytime I fell for you
You know that song that is for the nano chromatic commercials? I guess I really like it: Bruises by Chairlift.
I tried to do handstands for you
I tried to do headstands for you
Everytime I fell on you yeah everytime I fell
I tried to do handstands for you but everytime I fell for you
I’m permanently black and blue
permanently blue for you

If I were in the market for a small but STUNNING 2009 calendar, this is the one I would buy:
Fashion Illustrations Part 2: Aurore de La Morinerie
Aurore de La Morinerie (what a beautiful name) also established illustrator.
Fashion Illustrations Part 1: Sandra Suy
Kristan’s post on Rita Vindedzis, reminded me that I love fashion illustrations. Sandra Suy is a great example, and somehow I think using a manila-colored background creates this vintage Vogue look.
Not going to lie, I wish I had the courage to wear both dresses in public. I’m eyeing my closet right now.
Thank you, they do exist!
Dear Central Market,
I don’t know how to say this but, I love you. I love all the joy you have brought me on a empty stomach. Your fresh produce, organic strawberries, soft brioche and delectable choco cookies, have brightened up any sad day of mine. (And your coupons are pretty awesome too.) Your prepared food has also saved time for me to finish school work.
But I love you more now because you brought me, yes, a HOT guy. After all this time when I thought my interest in men was lost, no, you showed me the way. They do exist. The moment went like this: I was picking out salsa, and as I turned, I saw him. And he looked right at me! I couldn’t help but stare at his dark semi-long wavy hair, impeccably groomed self wrapped in a nice, black wool coat. Thank you for that silly, girly moment. I needed it.
Best,
Angie
It’s not really about free parking
My sister Trisha sent me this heartwarming short film, Validation:

Of Moons, Birds and Monsters, Holy Ghost! Remix
Mix Tape has provided the Holy Ghost remix and some other songs for sampling. I highly recommend this remix of MGMT’s Of Moons, Birds and Monsters. So jam to it!
Rita Vindedzis
So not only is she a sweetheart — and I cannot for the life of me even remember anymore how I found her… decor8? design*sponge? — but she also has beautiful art. Check out Rita Vindedzis:
I’m not really sure what to say to this
His name is Nick Pitera. O sent me this video and I didn’t believe him when he said the guy sings both parts. Yes, that is Nick Pitera, male, singing falsetto in all his videos. Believe me I checked.
We’re warmed up like biscuits, dance biscuits
Trust me, you’re going to want to watch this!
I probably should have told you this but…
It’s just one of those moods. A poopy, sad, extremely mopey mood. I didn’t lie about it, I just hid it. But here’s the truth: I woke up today crying. It wasn’t about a boy (well, not directly). It wasn’t about social injustice. It certainly wasn’t tears of joys. I woke up in bed and started crying, for myself and what I felt was a dream crushed.
I’m not sure what prompted me to really think about it, however, my friend Stephen is returning from a year-long journey in China (and Asia) teaching English. I’ve stared enviously at his photos and brief conversations online, stuck here in Texas twiddling my thumbs and reading for class. The places he has seen, the people he has met, the cultures he has learned, I wish that I, too, could experience these awakenings.
It’s cool outside!
If I had money to spend, I would totally buy some organic cotton jackets. Prairie Underground has really clever designs, and I particularly love the Moto Hoodie and Moth Coat.
They also have this fun zip dress.
I left my heart in places
Watch Don’t Fight It here–I admit, I heard it on Ugly Betty. The Panics are pretty good!
I left my heart in places
Forgot everyone of their faces
And tried to navigate a broken path
Of which I may have helped create
In any incident, this is never no accident
To stand alone and let the silence make itself at home
