Brooklyn Baby

They say I'm too young to love you

I don't know what I need

They think I don't understand

The Freedom land of the seventies

I think I'm too cool to know ya

You say I'm like the ice I freeze

I'm churning out novels like

Beat poetry on Amphetamines

I say

I say.....

My boyfriend's in the band

He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed

I've got feathers in my hair

I get down to Beat poetry

     I'm a Brooklyn baby....  

Growing up in Brooklyn with art and rustic inspiration every where you turn, I couldn't resist sharing my latest obsession by the lovely Lana Del Rey lyrics from her song Brookyln Baby. Brooklyn is all about mixing styles and culture, and that has definitely influenced my style and inflicted many diversities upon me...

(Current musical obsessions)

The 1975
 Here's just some of there songs but if you get a chance I strongly recommend listening to all of there fantastic songs. After actually seeing them perform all my favorite songs in Williamsburg music hall in Brooklyn ever since then my obsession has only grown and I literally wake up to them, shower, design, blog.... and well basically they're the soundtrack to my life right now... and I'm pretty sure my neighbors and everyone else knows it :p
                                                                                ...

Here's Lorde pronounced (Lord) with only EP's out at the moment, and man oh man do I love her music as well . Thanks to my friend Angela for showing me her, I can't thank her enough. Her songs have me singing so loud around the house.

I'm so glad I have discovered such great artist, I've been so busy working on my site this week and music has been the only thing keeping great company with me during this journey. For once here's musical artists actually talking about there life and not what everyone else is singing about on the radio.

 I truly admire  artists as these,  who express who they are, and stay true to their own particular sound,  that's super inspiring for me... so I guess this is  why I am obsessed with The 1975 and Lorde. 

Hope you enjoy this musical bliss as much as I do.

Maybe I will have you singing and rocking out during the week :)

The Beautiful Days... (Electra Heart tour)

Marina and The Diamonds

 Charlie XcX

 

 Lately I've had all these amazing opportunities and chances to experience such great things. Luckily I've had my camera on hand for an event like this one. My amazing Best friend Kate, gave me her ticket to see UK artist's Marina and The Diamonds, and Charlie XcX. I had such an amazing time seeing these two works of art, and luckily I got to see them with my two music loving junkies Angela, and Angie. If you ever have the chance I recommend seeing Marina and Charlie  in concert they were as electric and fantastic as these photos were, which I'm quite proud of, considering the blistering heat and jammed pack Central park, this concert was totally worth it! Glad I can finally share these with you, I would melt again any day to see these two lovely ladies.

P.s Keep a look out for more of  "The beautiful Days" posts.
