hair cuts

i usually cut my hair about once a year, i mean i used to be a every day hat wearing so i didnt really care. but ever since i've been here in toronto ive wanted cool hair, so i've already had 2 hair cuts and it just keeps getting shorter, i even let it stay curly plently of times here [gasp]

but heres some hair cuts ive had while i was here... from older to newer

neverest

man with all these handy dandy widgets and what not this post practically wrote itself... one more reason to love Hey Champ, another fresh new band i've fallen in love with this year. but anyways they've got some fantastic remixes by Database and Treasure Fingers of their awesome song "Neverest" up for free download:

if those aren't working just head over to their site.

they're even going to let you download the original along with my other favourite by them, "Cold Dust Girl" for free as well, AND stream their debut album, Star! hot damn

tried some things out this time, aka i put a push pin on the wall so i could suspend my camera from it... i take these in my doorway so there's not too much room haha

but guys, what will i do in my dorm room without my red accent walls :( and why do most of my clothes seem to look good against this red anyways?

ch-ch-changes

so i'm moving in about 6 days and boy oh boy, lots to pack! just been taking a break right now from sorting through clothes so mess with that new template designer, and kudos to blogger its fantastic. very easy to use and nice and clean. i like clean.

so as you can see i messed around with it and will probably continue doing so... i might think about putting up larger photos too since i can easily change the widths of everything... also decided to add some pops of colour, might change those colours though depending on if i ever get bored of them... but for now, i  like these haha

sorry for the lack of posts this summer, you would think it'd be the perfect time to do more posts, but i guess i just never got around to it... i'm hoping once i settle into a routine at university i might maaaybe have time, but i hear its hectic as hell so we'll see about that...

///////////////////////////////////

now lets see if some larger sized photos look okay...
does anyone even want larger photos? or is it over kill?

weeee

sorry everyone, its being a busy summer over here/i'm a lazy person who never gets around to things. 12 days until i'm off to toronto to start a whole new life people! less than 2 weeks right there, but this has been a great summer for sure

-i have touched Yo-landi [oh my god do i ever LOVE HER] and Ninja of Die Antwoord and almost cried while watching Sleigh Bells and holding her hand at probably the best show i've ever been to
-had a craaaazy montreal adventure clubbing and seeing some of my life time favourites of Montreal and Neon Indian, not to mention Chromeo and some great opening acts Rich Aucoin and Telephoned
-and just last night a quick trip to montreal for some of the loudest bass from Rusko along with some great djs Destructo and Sinden and i still haven't managed to touch Alice Glass of Crystal Castles, but despite that and the set being a lot shorter than expected they were still a great success compared to when i "saw" them last year...

more about those shows later if i EVER get around to it... but wow am i ever a front row kid... every single time

i also spent 3 days at a buddies cottage with my peeps which was a lot of fun, i'll get some photos up from that... MAYBE

/////////////////////////

for now i'm just going to throw an outfit out there... i have plenty...

sketch book

some things from my sketch book...

[original plan to make my prom dress back when i just wanted some sleek in the dark grey to blue grey to navy blue range, could never find anything i liked though, horizontal pleats yay! i had actually practised a lot of it with paper lmao]

[completely changed my mind and this was my second plan for my dress, some sort of cream lace with those sequins that are clear but shine my rainbows sewed in random places haha, with a slip of course. basically it had to be a light colour, white, silver or cream and i HAD to have black tights, that became a necessity.]

[some people daaaancin'!]

[it says laura! :D]

[it says mёlk :D]

/////////////////////

also yesterday i went yet again hunting for high waisted shorts in the only place i know, american apparel, and as i was leaving a girl came up to me and basically told me she loved my look and asked if i wanted to work at an american apparel, which i do [50% discount!!!] i've just been very lazy/thought it'd be hard to get a job there, but she took my number and my photo despite the fact that i told her i'd be leaving in a month [but she said "well theres american apparels in toronto!"] so i'll apparently be getting a call sometime this week for an interview and shit, go figure!

i did not whoever find any shorts i wanted in my price range that i didn't already have.

crazy for you

the new Best Coast album, Crazy For You, is now available for streaming on the Urban Outfitters website [here]. album comes out on July 27th, but of course its leaked and floating around everywhere so keep an eye out


this album and Wavves's King Of The Beach are no question the ultimate music for the beach this summer, especially in this heat wave. what an amazing couple haha
