Song of the Day: Babblin'

Monday, April 16, 2012

"When I'm babblin', we travelling, we can take our time..."

I don't have too much to say about this Song of the Day by Stalley except that it is the perfect kind of song with the perfect kind of beat for such a warm day like today. Enjoy.

Look What We Got...

It's a new camera!! A Nikon D3100 to be exact. Brian and I went in together and bought ourselves something nice and something to call our own. It's kind of like we have a new puppy together, but its actually camera. I guess you could say its kind of ironic, in a hipster-y kind of way. But apparently I throw the word "hipster" around way too carelessly, so owning this camera together like we would a puppy is just cool...and totally not hipster.

But we named her Daisy after Daisy Buchannan. So call that what you want.

Look out for high-quality & blog worthy pictures! ☺

Fashion Feature: ACCESSORIES!!!

Friday, April 13, 2012

I'm pretty much obsessing over anything accessory related at the moment -- rings, earrings, bracelets, hair clips, necklaces...anything. "RINGS!!!" has been on my shopping list for about a month now and the only reason I don't have more "RINGS!!!" is because I always seem to be distracted by the clothes at Madewell and J. Crew, which ends with me not buying anything at all because all I want are the clothes. Ever since I was little, my mom has been the jewelry queen, with bracelets and rings all over her hands and arms, and I've always been just like her. There are pictures of me at like 9 years old with 4 bracelets on 1 arm, 3 on the other, and 2 necklaces on (while playing tennis, mind you); although my taste is not as busy as it used to be, I still love having bracelets and different necklaces and earrings on for each outfit I wear that day. Here are some accessories that have made me write "RINGS!!!"on my shopping list, among other things!

Just click the link and explore Columbia's student-run fashion & lifestyle magazine! The article "Is Fashion Serious?" By The Wall Street Journal's Fashion Columnist Christina Birkley is really interesting and should definitely be read.

I'm so glad I figured out how to get this on here because I was wondering if I could even do it or not. Enjoy!

Song of the Day: Stormy Weather

Tuesday, April 10, 2012


Post #100! Dedicated to the late Lena Horne

It may not have counted for anything in terms of my major or the core curriculum, but History of African American Music was one of the best classes I've taken at Columbia. I loved that class and I learned so much from it. One particular song I heard in that class, Stormy Weather by the late Lena Horne, is one of my most favorite songs ever. She had an amazing voice and every time i listen to this song I feel completely at peace. This clip is from the 1943 movie "Stormy Weather" which features other greats such as Katherine Dunham and Cab Calloway and is one of those classic musicals that everyone needs to see. Not surprisingly, this also a great song to listen to on a rainy day -- it's just so appropriate you know?
