Happiness is a New CD

          I love discovering new music. It makes me very very happy :) Today is my brother's birthday and he wanted to take a trip to Amoeba. (The best music store, ever!) So, yesterday I had to have my 'list' as my bother calls it, ready. So, I spent a couple hours online researching new artists (or new to me) and compiled my list. I brought home 6 new CD's and can't wait to listen to them all!


        One of the new CD's is by a band called Stornoway. A folk/pop band from England. The first minute I heard this song, I knew I wanted their entire CD.



     Another album I picked up is by Swedish duo First Aid Kit. Sisters who sing folk songs that are so beautiful. Their voices are amazing!



        The last new artist I will share with you is Marina and the Diamonds. Another export from England she's somewhere in-between Britney and Florence and the Machine. She makes pop music thats actually about something.

Amazing

         Everything about Lanvin's Resort 2011 line is nothing short of amazing. Everything is so elegant looking. If you look closely you can see designer Alber Elbaz peeking into one of the looks.

Resort Revolution

        I'm loving that pretty much every designer does a resort line. It's slowly becoming my favorite season for fashion because it seems that there are no rules for resort. The styles can reflect the end of winter, or the beginning of spring. The colors can be pure white, super dark, or the expected nautical.
      This year, a lot of designers are pulling their inspiration from different decades and places. Things are definitely feeling fresh and new again. It makes me excited!
