Big Jet Plane

I'm really into this duo right now, Angus and Julia Stone.  I first heard them on http://Paperbackweddings.com/films/ 
(which is, hands down, my favorite wedding film company).  Something about this song just makes me happy and sad all in one.. They also do an INCREDIBLE cover of "You're the one I want"...  ENJOY!

Leather and Sequins

I love the contrast of pairing masculine and feminine clothes together--the idea of wearing a pretty, ethereal top with some tough, rugged leather boots sounds so unexpected, yet so sexy.

I have newly become a fan of Allsaints Clothing.  From the outside, the store looks more like a rustic warehouse than a secret harbor for glitter-- do not be fooled! -

Some of the most incredible sequin tops, dresses and skirts live here.  Not to mention, this store is engulfed in exquisite leather- all of which is amazing!

However, staying true to the 'glitter girl' that I am-- these dresses had me at 'hello'

To my dismay, they had shipped these beautifully crafted pieces to their final destination, "web sale." Let's cross our fingers and hope Google can help me get my search-on! 

So, here is to watching my piggy bank dwindle, my leather collection expand, and making my life a bit more glittery! 

Guns and Moses

I recently returned from a two week excursion in Israel.   It was an incredible experience and I am so thankful I got the chance to visit such a beautiful and spiritual country-- it also allowed for a lot of self (and life) reflection (hence why I am finally embarking on my first post). 

My first Israeli dinning experience 

The Israeli food was so flavorful, the weather was gorgeous (think more Mediterraneanan heat and less blow-dryer heat), the people were extremely welcoming (and extremely good looking), and amongst all the chaos of buses, hikes, rivers, tours, talking and such-- I found out some interesting things about myself.... 



1. I can get by with very little sleep.

2. I am absolutely not good at being on time (ok, ok.. I've known this one for many years now).

3. I have a remarkably large bladder (too soon for intimate details?) 

4. When put in a "school-esque" setting I can and will revert back to being a 12-year old girl ("Who is going to sit by me on the bus" was a serious daily thought ).

5. I can be dirty.  Yes I prefer feeling fancy (even if that does sound snobby), but I can and did get dirty DAILY and loved every minute of it.

6.  The rest is yet to fully brew...
