I heart Music: Mumford and Sons


Mumford and Sons: Little Lion Man
Album: Sigh No More

Weep for yourself, my man, You'll never be what is in your heart
Weep little lion man, You're not as brave as you were at the start
Rate yourself and rape yourself, Take all the courage you have left
Wasted on fixing all the problems that you made in your own head

But it was not your fault but mine
And it was your heart on the line
I really fucked it up this time
Didn't I, my dear?

Tremble for yourself, my man, You know that you have seen this all before
Tremble little lion man, You'll never settle any of your score
Your grace is wasted in your face, Your boldness stands alone among the wreck
Learn from your mother or else spend your days biting your own neck

But it was not your fault but mine
And it was your heart on the line
I really fucked it up this time
Didn't I, my dear?

Window Blues


The sun is shining and I am staring out my office window pining to play outside. Since I can't be out in the beautiful weather, I can at least get into the spirit with a fun Spring time outfit. I'm wearing a Ditsy print dress (similar here and here) accessorized with Miss Sixty boots (similar here and here), Urban Outfitters belt (similar here), Lucky Brand Horseshoe necklace (similar here) and stacking rings (similar here).


My theme song for the day is by Likke Li.

Window Blues
I sleep with windows open
I sleep with eyes wide
In case you would come walking
In case you change your mind
But don't strain yourself for me
Don't break yourself for me
Don't lose your selfish ways for me


I keep a leash around you
And I keep it nice and tight
In case you would go walking over forbidden line
But don't go out soft on me
Don't come across for me
Dont lose your selfish ways over me


Un deux trois quatre cinq six
A hundred times around
Keep on flunking out
Keep me wanting more

What I'm listening to: Florence + the Machine

I am loving Florence And The Machine's album "Lungs". It won the Brit awards, best British album of 2010. I especially love the song "Dog Days Are Over". This album is something a little different. It's a little bad-ass mixed with a soft feminine edge. It has some really well written, evocative, and powerful lyrics. I highly recommend it. Check it out and see for yourself! http://florenceandthemachine.net/

DOG DAYS ARE OVER
Happiness hit her like a train on a track
Coming towards her stuck still no turning back
She hid around corners and she hid under beds
She killed it with kisses and from it she fled
With every bubble she sank with a drink
And washed it away down the kitchen sink.

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
The horses are comin' so you better run

Run fast for your mother; run fast for your father
Run for your children all your sisters and brothers
Leave all your love and your longing behind.
You can't carry it with you if you want to survive
The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can you hear the horses
'Cos here they come

And I never wanted anything from you
Except everything you had
And what was left after that too

Oh! Happiness hit her like a bullet in the back
Struck from a great height
By someone who should have known better than that

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can you hear the horses
'Cos here they come

Run fast for your mother run fast for your father
Run for your children all your sisters and brothers
Leave all your love and your longing behind
You can't carry it with you if you want to survive

Tegan and Sarah


Last Friday some friends and I got together for dinner at Mua and to see Tegan and Sarah at the Fox. The show was fun and the company was even better. I love going to live shows especially at the Fox. There is something about that Theatre that is so Old Hollywood, I love it!
