Alexa Chung on the Cover of British Vogue!

Beauty | 09 May 2011

by

Trendsetter Alexa Chung graces the cover of British Vogue for the June 2011 issue looking as beautiful as ever! With soft bangs and a tousled wave, her chic bob is picture perfect.
Alexa has been a hair icon for years and has been setting trends since she arrived on the scene! Check out some of my favorite hair looks from years past.
 
 
Similar to the Vogue cover, look this soft and feminine bob is the perfect length for Alexa’s face shape. The caramel hue makes her eyes look even more blue!
 
 
Alexa had a heads up on the ombre trend back in 2009. With dark roots and a lighter tone on the tips, Alexa was one of  the first to make this hairstyle sensation a hit!
 
 
Fixing the bangs into a chic side braid is the perfect way to get your hair out of your face while changing up the style. Keep it loose and tousled for a soft and easy look.
 
What do you think of Alexa’s styles? Which one is your favorite?

Mummmmmford & Sons!

Music | 18 January 2010

by

My sister sent me a link today for a Mumford & Sons video. It was pretty cool. Actually I REALLY liked it.

One side of me, the side that likes cheesy singer-songwriters, also really likes having British boys singing and playing guitar. Along with every other American girl I fall for the accent and the somewhat sappy and somewhat cynical love story.

So here, I present two Mumford & Sons videos that I really do enjoy. The first one for its acoustic and charmingly quaint qualities that remind me so much of King Charles (I did a blog on him a few weeks ago) … or its probably that King Charles reminds me of them … and well, I like both.

 


The second video I have here for its heart-wrenching, self-deprecating story. In Mumford & Sons songs I enjoy the layering of the banjo over their keyboard, guitar, bass, and drums. The music is nothing out of the ordinary or unique — just a little folk inspired. I grew up, without choice on the matter, a hopeless lover of bluegrass and folk music, so this aspect of their music hits home for me.

Watch and listen, and see if it strikes a chord for you…
