March BirchBox

Our second month of BirchBox was almost as exciting as the first, maybe even a bit more.  The products I got this time are so perfect.  I have been researching a good dry shampoo and what do you know, they sent me a sample of one.  And what perfect timing for a neon green nail polish see here, we are "Feeling Green."  If we didn't convince you last month to sign up maybe this box will motivate you!

Feeling Green

St. Patty's Day is one of my favorite holidays! I'm Irish, green is my favorite color, and who doesn't love getting out on a beautiful spring day to drink some green beer (and pinching those that don't love it as much as I do!) Here's our St. Patty's Day round up of our favorite things that are Irish and Green.

I'm not sure which one i would like to eat first.

Musical Journey




Three bands, six cities and one train, that's the magic behind "The Big Easy Express."  LA natives Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros, Nashville group Old Crow Medicine Show and London lads Mumford and Sons are on board a train from Oakland to New Orleans, some might call it a "tour of dreams."  Stopping in six cities along the railroad to preform for fans from both sides of the track.  The band members are the only ones on board the train jamming the entire trip one band member even says "Its like we left all our baggage behind and just brought our instruments."

Back into the magic...


"All those little things make us kindred spirits..."


"We are the only one's on this train, we got it all"


"We have this beam of light shooting down on this train, traveling across the country"

On March 17th in Austin, TX at the SXSW, the world premiere of Big Easy Express, followed by a Q&A, as well as a special acoustic set.  I would do anything to be there.  Can't wait to see this wonderful documentary.

"It was a great trip to New Orleans y'all twenty-eight hundred miles, week and a half and the TIME OF OUR LIFE!"

Painting with Sound


Umm how freaking amazing are these photographs of paint on a speaker!


 German photographer, Martin Klimas, creates these images by putting different colors of paint on top of a speaker, and turning the volume up! The vibration shoots the paint up, creating these amazing patterns and forms.





Check out the rest of Martin's work here.

Disco Fever

I don't know what sparked my new obsession because I have never even seen Saturday Night Fever, but I am really jazzin' on Disco Balls this week.  Incorporating them in your decor just gives the perfect glam to any room.

February Book Club


 Our second Book Club was a success! We read Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? by Mindy Kaling, writer, producer, and actor from "The Office". It is a hilarious trip through Kaling's life, as well as her opinions about friends, guys, fashion, relationship, and Hollywood.  There were so many funny parts that I couldn't wait to chat about with my friends, and I found out they all came with a slew of Mindy's thoughts they wanted to discuss as well.

We had some great apps and wine again, and we all agreed we should jump on the bandwagon, and our next book will be Hunger Games, so we can finish just in time for the movie. I am excited to see what all the hype is about.

Here is the trailer for the movie if you haven't seen it yet.
