Happy Earth Day!

Today is Earth Day

Its the day for us to thank her and show her we care. With out sounding too hippie I would like to encourage us all to step outside and look around. Pick up the piece of garbage on the ground, take the bus, turn off your light before leaving, and respect our planet : )

I think it's important to educate ourselves on whats happening out there, and why going green is such a big deal. Check these out:

what are you doing on this lovely day? let us know.

hip heads.

It's been awhile, let's talk fashion.

Hipster Headbands - Love them. Hate them.





I read an interesting article about hipster headbands today and how they can only be worn by a select few who can actually pull them off. Yes folks, it's true. According to a very reliable trending website, this is a trend that few can pull off and one that is making a presence on the runways.

So, do you love them or do you hate them?


I'd say - circa last Spring - I thought hipster headbands were pretty damn sweet. I will even admit that I rocked them every now and then. My own version of course. Discounted threads bought at Joann's Fabrics that I cut to the size of my head and wore with pride. Did I look like an idiot, maybe. But I didn't think so.


Word on the street is that the headbands you see on the runway - such as in Ann Sui or Chanel's Fall 2008 collections, are actually completely influenced by the favorite accessory of every girl (and guy) in Williamsburg. While we're starting to - or have been - hating on this trend, the fashion gods have been totally making it work for them. Props.

So, if you rock a HH or not, we're not judging. We just wanna know your opinions. I still think some girls look great in them.

Kaki Kaki Kaki Kaki

Lets see, Lets see.

I introduce to those who are not familiar...Kaki King. In addition to being extremely relaxing, and intresting; this young lady does what is beyond strum her guitar. Her fingers seem to do what is not humanly or anatomically possible. Playing what feels to be a million different notes at a time. At first listen you may be led to believe that there is more than one person playing , but alas..tis only Kaki. The small lady entered the stage at Bowery Ballroom on Wednesday night. I felt excited to calm myself, chill out, and close my eyes for wonderful experience.

While being entertaining, and quite breath taking watching her fingers move I was distracted by some idiot in front of me who thought we were at Warped Tour. Jumping up and down and screaming, he was stupid and making bad jokes. "Oh dis is my jam when I go to sleep"...I don't care! If I heard "shhh, we're in a library" one more time.... Dear Sir, don't do that again. You Suck.

I must say though...the set felt as if it would never end. She played a bit too long for me. I found myself bummin hard when she grabbed guitar after guitar after guitar. Sweet and short is the way we like it. Not hating though, great tunes.

Now lets count how many times the hippie got in trouble for sitting on the floor:

oh you silly hippie!
