Foster the People

I first heard Foster the People in this video I shared back in April and knew I loved their sound. Now they are all over the radio and I can't get enough of this song:

Foster The People - Pumped Up Kicks (Official Music Video). Watch more top selected videos about: Foster the People

Perfect for an easy Sunday morning. I can't wait to catch them live this Thursday at the Masquerade in Atlanta!

Unexpected Interior


From the outside, you'd never guess there's anything unusual about this Chelsea town house. 


oh wait, there's a pool in the living room.


with a swing in it...


and a greenhouse!


and your own private rooftop garden. Did I mention it's five stories? and for just $10.95 million it could be yours! 

A.L.C. Resort 2012

Love the yellow + blue, fitted leather, and unexpected pops of neon peeking out at A.L.C.



 



This and That

Happy Happy Thursday! Here's your weekly dose of oddities from around the web to occupy your time til the weekend begins!




What Hilary Whispered is only 8 days old, but I laughed out loud so I felt the need to share - the facial expressions on both parties (especially J.Edwards) are priceless

Just a thought

I like black and white. Especially when it's not all over.

Susie Sells Seashells

Happy Hump Day! I finally got my computer back! YAY! so I thought I'd celebrate with a quick little roundup of one of my favorite colors for summer (or any season really): sea foam green. No matter where you are, this shade is sure to brighten up your mood and remind you of the beach. 


And here are some pretty little sea foam green things to spruce up your home and your wardrobe. My toes are currently painted this awesome color (10) which was the inspiration for this post. My feet look so pretty and tan - I'm actually considering having it permanently tattooed there.

Art I Love

I first came across Jack Pierson from this curated collection by the jealous curator via sfgirlbybay. I, too, love typography and art and also all things shiny, bright and awesome so naturally I fell in love with his word sculptures, which sell for well over $100,000 each. Why didn't I think of that?
