Happy Hump Day: Raine Maida

I am a adolescent of the 90’s. This is pretty evident once you get to know me and my CD collection. I have fond memories of using school computers to go on band fansites (I didn’t have Internet of my own just yet) and print out photos of all my favorite hot rockstars to wallpaper my locker or notebooks. I vividly remember Raine Maida of Our Lady Peace being one of them. Although they were a pretty big deal in the 90’s, I was surprised to see them still touring recently. They played at a local South Florida rock festival a couple of years ago that I attended and I was curious to see if they would still sound the same, worse? I was pleasantly surprised when they took the stage that they are still as great as ever and even appeased all us 90’s fans by playing their old material, which instantly took me back to being an angsty teenager (a place of comfort once you are an angsty adult). Another surprise? That lead singer, Raine, was just as hot as I remembered. But I’ll leave that opinion up to you all.

Dreaded Blog Question

Via Pinterest

When you have a blog, and you start putting it out there (or attempting to), the first question asked is always the most dreaded for me: “What kind of blog is it?” It seems like the most basic of questions. One you should be able to answer without a second thought, but for me, a blogger that has been struggling to find some sort of focus for 2 years, it is a nightmare. Or is it?

I had been putting off the search for focus because I like the fact that I can post about anything and everything. The sky is the limit; I am not pigeon holed to only discuss one topic. But at the same time, every video created by famous bloggers states that your number one goal is to narrow your focus and decide what kind of blogger you want to be. Well, shit.

Lovable Friday!

1. H&M striped dress

How perfectly Spring is this dress? It really makes me want to kick H&M in the rear for not having a South Florida store (although that will change in 2012) or a US online store (also changing in 2012). This gorgeous little number is only $30, ladies. THIR-TY. I pay more for gas weekly. Sometimes life just isn’t fair.

GIVEAWAY: Cupcakes & Mace Unicorn Necklace!

I’ve been a big fan of the Cupcakes and Mace (what a great name) Etsy shop for awhile now, and have ordered a few fun necklaces from them. I’m sure if you haven’t seen me raving about my own purchases, you have seen at least one, two or twelve Lovable Fridays featuring these cute and original pieces. I love how bright, kitschy and fun their accessories are with such attention to detail. Crafter extraordinaire and shop owner, Kim, is a total doll and decided to team up with me to give away one of my favorite items in her shop: the unicorn necklace!

Honestly, who wouldn’t want the coolest mythical beast (ok, so maybe tied with dragons…) around their neck? Plus, you can choose from a cornucopia of colors for your horny creature (had to, sorry) to make it more personalized.

Ready to enter?

1 – Leave a comment on this post detailing your favorite unicorn memory.
Mine? The 1982 film, The Last Unicorn. I was obsessed.
2 – Follow Cupcakes and Mace on Facebook!

Good luck everyone!

Happy Hump Day: Heath Ledger

I’ll never forget how I felt when I found out about Heath Ledger’s passing. I was sitting at my desk at work not exactly working when I saw the news on a message board. I actually found it difficult to breathe and felt sick. It was strange to me because I had never had that kind of reaction to any celebrity death, but Heath had been one of my favorites since high school when I saw 10 Things I Hate About You (and then continued to watch it incessantly for years). It makes me sad to think of all the accomplishments and acclaims he could have had under his belt by now. Such a talent, such a beautiful human being…such a loss. I love you, Heath, and we miss you dearly.
