Music! Music makes the world go round. It connects people. For this V-Day post I collaborated with Thom from The Thomblr as I wanted to select eclectic love songs that would appeal to both genders... I hope you agree :) Only five days to go! x.

I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE WHITEST BOY ALIVE perform at the Keystone Festival Bar tomorrow night! They are one of my favourite bands of all time! (I'm a big fan of Erlend's other group, Kings of Convenience) Steph and I saw them in concert when we traveled to New York a couple of years ago... They were AMAZING! So, so, so excited! Hope you have a fantastic weekend :) x.

P.S. How much fun is Zooey Deschanel? I love New Girl particularly the opening credits! Hehe.

I'm a HUGE fan of the French band, Phoenix (j'adore Thomas Mars et Sofia Coppola). I remember watching them perform live at The Factory in 2007 and thinking, "This is the best concert ever!"* Since then, I've been to every Sydney concert of theirs and have seen them grow/reach international success. If you have a chance check out this short clip on the boys. x.

*In 2010, I saw The Whitest Boy Alive perform live at Music Hall of Williamsburg (with Steph, who attended Phoenix's concert with me). I have to say, these guys are amazing live. So much so, they JUST beat Phoenix as 'The Best Concert Ever.' In fact, Steph and I are seeing Erlend and co. perform with New Navy at Sydney Festival 2012. Can't. Wait.

Don't forget the release of Florence and the Machine's second album this week! x.

Florence + The Machine's new album, Ceremonials will be released in The UK on 31st October 2011 and in The US 7th November 2011. Can't wait! Happy Friday! x.

As you may have noticed I just learnt how to embed videos on here. I never used to like video blogging (I thought it was kind of lazy) however I changed my mind after watching a Proenza Schouler interview* and several of Bryan Boy's recordings. Anyhoo. It's June! How appropriate is this song? Yes, I live in Australia and it's winter but the thought of an English (or European) summer is enough to keep me warm during the cool months. I'm going to throw a garden party just like this one! x.




*Oh no, I can't find the link! It was a really good interview. I'm going to keep searching for it. I'll keep you posted!
