Asparagus Baked Eggs

Sometimes late at night, I like to tease myself with meals that I can’t have.

It’s an unhealthy habit to say the least.

But doesn’t this look AMAZING?!

Victoria Justice and Max Schneider – Bruno Mars Medley

You can make fun of me for watching Nickelodeon’s Victorious all you want, but there is no way you can tell me that you didn’t enjoy this.

Victoria Justice > Selena Gomez > Demi Lovato

Room Portraits

I always enjoy seeing the rooms or homes that others live in because I think they are a true reflection of who someone is without even getting to know them. I’ve definitely seen my fair share of them through blog projects, but German photographer Menno Aden has brought in a new perspective to mix things up a bit. His photographs documenting rooms are shot from an aerial point of view, but presented in a flat photograph as one. I love getting to see these shots of rooms, personal spaces, and work spaces from a different angle and being able to look into them rather than just at them.

Check out the rest of the shots here.

Minus the Bear – Infinity Overhead

I am absolutely thrilled to announce to you all today that one of my favorite local bands, Minus the Bear, will be releasing their new album “Infinity Overhead.” Words cannot even describe how much I love this group, but I will say that at age 15, it was always my goal to book them for a show. Unfortunately, I haven’t quite succeeded, but I don’t believe my booking days are over just yet. It is amazing to see how far this band has come. I must have been listening to them now for eight years? I also had the opportunity to see them last year at Bumbershoot and as always, was blown away.

Happy Weekend!

Happy Pride Weekend Y’all!

Despite the rain, Capitol Hill is bursting with happiness and spirit all weekend long for the pride celebration. I was so bummed to have missed out on it this year, but will never forget the amazing time I had last year with my friend Aimee as we strolled down Broadway stopping bars along the way and a  quick stop to Urban Outfitters for my favorite couch pillows.

There is also nothing better than seeing the whole community back up Pride Weekend with shops, bars, and restaurants hanging the rainbow flag in their windows. I love my cute little neighborhood!

Swedish House Mafia – Save the World

Swedish House Mafia has broken up and to honor Axwell, Sebastian Ingrosso and Steve Angello and their music, they are the Song of the Day today. Now, everyone knows by now that I am not a fan of raves and that I will probably never spend money on one, but I have enjoyed house/electronic music for years since my brother and I grew up on C89.5 and regardless, I don’t need to go to a rave to like this type of music.

Proud Owner: Madewell

V-neck Pocket Tee

The Bungalow Stripe Caravan Mailbag 

I am about to embark on a little post-grad traveling shortly and thought it was about time that I bought myself a traveling bag for the occasion. I’ve had my Madewell gift card since Christmas so I was a little bit excited to finally put it to use. As for the plain white tee, you can never have enough! I’ve been exhausting mine from Forever 21 for years and that one is a little bit more tight fitted than usual. This time around, I was looking for something a little bit looser and with a v-neck.
