Kittens, Dresses, and Records

these are a few of my favorite things...what's not to love! Rachel Antonoff Spring '11 Lookbook is out. For some reason it also reminded me of the video for "Homecoming" by The Teenagers. Which then also makes me wish it was summer so I can wear dresses and shorts again like all these ladies. Once the 5inches of snow outside melts I guess...

I'm currently in portfolio submissions hell right now, so here's some recent image selections from my tumblr which I've posted or reblogged. Hope your weekend was great!

Still busy, but luckily I found time to paint some mix covers, collaging images from an Urban Outfitters catalog. Actually pretty happy with the results, though now I have to buy my parents something since a cd with Vanity 6 on it probably won't work for them.

Ida the cat listening to the sweet sounds of my mix on our hi-fi. She approves.

Music break

I have a major application due tomorrow and will most likely have a strong drink soon after. Las Robertas have been keeping my ears company as I walk the fine line of insanity from staring at my computer too long as I try to get all these things done. All female teen shoegaze-y garage rock from Costa Rica? claro que si! They've been compared to Vivian/Dum Dum Girls and Best Coast...but since they're way younger I'm going to applaud them a little more. When I was a teenager I was much less productive. enjoy...
