You Fit Me Better Than My Favorite Sweater

Good morning world! This weekend treated me well with great date nights, fall finds and most importantly...rest. I'm really starting to miss my afternoon nap in between class periods...unfortunately I can't do that at work. Womp Womp. Anyways - I got my hands on some pants that I've been wanting for quite some time now. I always wanted the Motel Rocks pair, but $90 just wasn't gonna' cut it for me. I also finally bought the "Lana" angora blend sweater! I didn't think I was going to go back to pastels for the fall, but I've proven myself wrong with this little number. The one horrible thing about it: it sheds EVERYWHERE, on EVERYTHING. I guess I'll just have to carry a lint roller with me whenever I wear it because this sweater makes me feel amazing.

Obsession | Lana Del Rey

Ever since an old high school friend (Alexis) posted a video, I've been hooked on miss Lana Del Rey. Whether you know her from her former Lizzy Grant days or are just listening to her songs for the first time today, it's hard to ignore her "Gangster Nancy Sinatra" ways, as she claims. She's oozing with old Hollywood glamour and setting some 60's styled ballads mixed with modern pop as the new sound in the music industry. With her self-made videos for 'Video Games', 'Diet Mountain Dew' and 'Blue Jeans', she's set herself as a creative soul. She landed the cover of British Vogue (among many others) and recently won a Brit Award for International Breakthrough Artist (and no she's not the same like Adele, they're two completely different genres). Her record, "Born to Die" went #1 in 11 countries in its release and Mulberry even named a new bag after her (the "Del Rey")! I don't care if her lips are fake or real or if she doesn't hit every note in her live performances...there's no one quite like her and I love her for it. I even bought her physical CD to support her, that's how obsessed I am with her. I love "Radio", "National Anthem", "Dark Paradise", "Off To the Races"...who am I kidding, I love anything by her. She can do no wrong in my eyes! Have you seen her sick style?! PS: Check out her video for 'Born to Die' if you want some seriously gorgeous cinematography!
