Now if you have been following me on Twitter, you'll hear me saying that I am watching The Hills online as I am usually missing it due to football. One of the things that I love about this show is that I have found myself heading to iTunes after watching the show! It seems like The Hills always has a great song and even though you only hear a little of it, it makes you want to hear more! With that said, I was introduced to the Universal Motown's, modern rock band,Safetysuit's "Someone Like You", which has a great vibe and great lyrics to match. Although their first CD, Life Left to Go was released in May, this band has been on a mini tour making pit stops to continue increasing their audience. Although they have been playing with Puddle of Mud since the earlier portion of this month, this band got its start by coming together and focusing on their audience via grassroots methods - playing small venues and starting in their home base of Nashville. After listening to all the songs from their current CD, I have to say that the lyrics are simple, touching and just great to listen to. With so much talent coming from Nashville, it's nice to hear another band that has made it from the area with their great sound. To listen to other great songs, you can visit Safetysuit's site!
I have never been one to envy for someone else's items but I will not lie when I say that I love when people look at something that I'm wearing and they wish that they could have worn my find! As you know, I'm accessories obsessed and when I see designers that are on the mark, I have to share! Kristen of Objets d'Envy makes fabulous Swarovski Crystal jewelry that are amazing to wear whether you're heading to work (you could work in an extremely corporate environment or one that is laid back), hanging out with friends or going out. The pieces lend themselves to being the focal point of your outfit and if you see a certain style that you like, you can get it in various colors so that you have quite the decision to make when you're about to step out. These pieces are meant to break the barrier of the common question "When/where would I wear this" - anywhere or everywhere.
I love the red Boucle necklace as it is a delicate design that has great depth due to the use of Swarovski Crystals. It reminds me of something that you could see Audrey Hepburn wearing if she was out and about today - which means it would be perfect as she was queen of taking great basics and making them eternally classic. In addition, I love the Galaxie. I am a huge fan of having one large rock or crystal. This is perfect for a tunic, cute wide belt, skinny jeans and slouchy boots! Simple and at the same time you can wear a sweater dress and look amazing as well. Not only can your neck look amazing but with these rock candy rings, looking good has never been so simple and don't be surprised if even a quick walk to your coffee shop turns into someone's moment of Envy!
You know next weekend looks good when you are currently sitting in a weekend thinking about the next one coming up. Yes I am pleased to attend a special shopping event next Fri but I can't lie that it's going to be fun to go to PaperDoll's concert in the West Village next Saturday night. I think this calls for those special skinny jeans, a cute shirt, clucth and all the python accessories that I can find! Seriously, I began chatting it up with the lead singer of PaperDoll and after visiting their main home and MySpace page, I knew that this was something that I would always want playing on my iPod.
PaperDoll has not only been making the circuit but they have played to sold out shows at Knitting Factory, Crash Mansion and Mercury Lounge. With the release of the their debut album, Ballad Nerd Pop, this pop rock band embraces its listeners with great melodies, catchy tunes and just the feeling of excitement about their own music. I am a huge fan of the 80's sound and my favorite song is definitely, "Everything is Fine" which has a great sound and gets you ready to prepare for a night out or you may already be out enjoying a night with the girls or your growing group of friends.
Most importantly, I see Teresa as that early Gwen Stefani during the No Doubt days. I think she has a great style and definitely makes her look her own while taking ownership of her lyrics. OIf you have yet to hear this band, you can hear them next Sat! I hope to continue following this band on Kitten Lounge. as you know that I enjoy sharing indie music and I will be out next weekend catching my first (and hopefully not the last) show. I will also share my thoughts on the show as well.
