Salary in a Sweater

Back in July, I did a post about metallic sweaters.

I kept seeing this sweater dress on Tumblr, and on Lea Michele in a Fashion Week video that the cast of Glee was in.

I knew that if I ever found out where to get it, that I'd do anything to own one. The people who know me should know that I would rock this sweater every day. It's so Bubbie Chic.

My prayers were finally answered when I came across a dress that looked just like this sweater dress, by Balmain, later to find out they are from the same collection (F/W 2011). Yeah, about that. The dress with tax, is the price of what I'm assuming my salary is after taxes.

I couldn't, for the life of me find the price of this exact sweater. However, I did find a tank top and mini skirt version. The tank top, $7,795. The mini skirt, $9,800. So for pieces that are a fraction of the dress, thinking about the price of my dream dress could make me vom.

If anyone has one of these laying around, I have like $100 to put towards it.

Sever The Pearls

I've been a HUGE fan of geode rocks since I was a little girl, and became fascinated with geode jewelry about 3 or 4 years ago.

I think I may have a new obsession- sliced pearls.

Today, WWD featured Jordan Alexander's sliced pearl jewelry. Read the article here.

I'll be getting my hands or wrists in one of these as soon as possible- what about you?

Badgley Mischka Fine Jewelry

This is so exciting.

As some of you know, I work on the marketing for this couture brand. I wore them to prom for two consecutive years, and I remain a fan to the point where I know I will be wearing them on my wedding day!

I hope everyone snags themselves some Badgley Mischka jewels, I know I will be!

A Whole Lot of Hotness

After seeing these two on the VS fashion show, I fell in love with them as a couple.

You've gotta admit, they're a mighty fine one.

Loved this editorial of them together.

The Time Is Right

Back in '09, Jon and Azad were going to drop a mixtape. I was so happy with their music, that I didn't understand why Azad decided to keep pushing it back from there on out.

Now I fully understand. A few days ago, Azad released

  "The Time Is Right". (click to download for free)

The production from Jonathan Marquez, Professor O, and David Dann on this tape mixed with Azad's lyrics will put any doubts of this new era of music to rest. 

Azad lets his thoughts and feelings out through his music.. Everything that he voices is organic, explicit, and done with his whole heart. You can physically feel it when you listen.

I know for a fact that each and every fan and blog reader who has heard of Azad can connect to his lyrics in some way, shape, or form. He is infectious. I could and probably will spend the next month tweeting quotes from this mixtape because the flows are ridiculous and I feel a strong amount of what he says, or I simply respect him so much for keeping it so real.

Some Personal Highlights...

Pressure

"My dad went blind and there's still no cure,

 but he made the victim when he gave me his vision./

And you people wonder why I'm insanely ambitious,

 gotta make a difference every time I approach a track./

I try to close the gap and rap

I know my heart imploded the moment he was diagnosed, in fact/

I use my voice on the mic/

as a way to fill that void in my life."

Showtime

"All the things that I used to be embarrassed about

are coincidentally all the things that I cherish now./

I used to think that I was whack cause I wasn't black,

So I started blackin' out on every fuckin' track."

-that's just outright sick. 

Santa Monica

If you're from Santa Monica, you will just know that this is our anthem.

Represent.

The Fire ft. Sofia Enggren

Sofia has a beautiful voice and I'm proud to also call her a close friend of mine for 8 years.

She kills it in this song.

Stained ft. The Bridge

"Liquor sippin slippin i'm fuckin trippin/

Got a half british broad and she's puffin on somethin' wicked."

Who doesn't die for that line?

The Bridge happens to be another friend of mine for a long time. I have seen him work so hard through the years to create masterpieces such as this one. This song just goes hard, and I can honestly say it is one of my all time favorites. Bravo, Yoni. One love

Caught In A Dream ft. The Bridge

"I'm not happy with myself unless I'm being productive,

You might think it's a curse,

But I mother fuckin' love it."

I love surrounding myself with people like this.

Promises ft. Jenilee

I had the pleasure of watching this song come to creation in my living room. It's so real that I feel it hit the pit of my heart every time it plays. A fun fact is that Jon named this song, and Azad wrote separately, and somehow they had the same interpretation of what the song would be about, just by the production. 

 It's a masterpiece. Jenilee kills it on the hook.

I can only express how much I believe in these guys so much. It's up to the rest of you to download the mixtape and vibe to it yourselves. 

4 5 'til I die.

I'm so proud of you all.
