Today is International Women’s Day, and it’s no secret that we live and breath #GIRLPOWER around here. It’s also no secret that we’re just a little obsessed with Toronto artist RALPH. She’s already set the mood with us in studio, and now she’s back to set the mood for your International Women’s Day with a specially curated Spotify playlist!
Classes are officially back in full swing, which means regular naps have most likely made their way into your daily schedule. But are group project nightmares and massive assignments taking over your brain and making those crucial naps difficult to take?
Let us introduce you to our cat nap mixtape.
The time has come—we can almost feel the dust in our lungs, see the dirt in our fingernails and smell the fresh cut floral crowns. Music festival season is on its way, and we’ve got our high-waisted cut-offs freshly frayed!
With music festival line-ups, it’s easy to feel like you’re at the optometrist when reading the performances poster. The headliners stand out, bold and extra large, but what about the bottom-line acts? You know, the ones you need a prescription to see? They’re people too, and they’ve been invited to play for a reason! We’ve whipped out my magnifying glass for this year’s Coachella lineup and compiled 12 of the best of the bottom lines.
While we can’t steal the outfits or have the perfect model hair and makeup from the various fashion weeks around the world, there is something from the runways we can keep for ourselves: the playlists!
We’ve rounded up the coolest tracks from this seasons spring/summer runway shows. These jams have been accompanied by looks from Kenzo, Saint Laurent, Rodarte, and more at Paris, Milan, London and New York Fashion Weeks. Press play–these fun, airy, effervescent songs are sure to put the spring in your step strut.
Exam mode is in full swing and we are quickly joining procrastination nation as ANY excuse to not be doing work is a good one. BUT when push comes to shove and we need to get down to business, sometimes white noise just doesn’t cut it!
Valentine’s Day is a day for embracing- whether it’s your significant other or your single life. This playlist is for the latter (the single part, being alone, no significant other in sight, solo)
Because anything Washed Out is pretty much made for easy listening from a pink floaty in the deep end, we suggest you grab your best loungin’ suit and head for da pool. Atmospheric. Balearic. Nu (Chill) wavve. It’s a mellow beats summer and the Kings of Chill are here to lull you into a blissful summer daze. Jamiie xx keeps it UK while Ezra Koenig is all new dorp, New York. When it’s all said and done top it off with a (two scoops) cone and a side of synthpop. Sunsets go best with Chazwick Bundick. read more…
WE HAVE AN ANNOUNCEMENT TO MAKE: July is National Ice Cream Month!
What’s more, is that there’s only a measly eight days left of this glorious celebration. Thus, we need your immediate attention on this v. pressing matter.
We’re calling this the *official* public service announcement encouraging all humans of the world to eat as much ice cream as they possibly can in the next week and one day. This is your call to action. Your chance to honor the historic art of ice creamery. Indulge in all the flavours of the dairy/sorbet/vegan ic ecream rainbow. To commemorate your heroic efforts we’ve compiled a sweet tooth-centric mixtape of summery jams.
Go ahead, order the waffle cone. You earned it! read more…
Consider the pink skateboard: It’s the perfect emblem of bada$$ boldness and that girly somethin somethin. A pink skateboard says, “yeah I skate. And paint. Maybe even at the same time.” It’s a talent in itself to have so many talents don’t ya know, but somehow we found a whole army of coolgirls who can skate, paint, write, blog, sing, cook, and direct with the best of the best, all whilst managing a multitude of other roles. Though our thirty days of lady crushes has come to an end (insert sad face emoji) the ~ go-getter vibes~ live on with our mixtape of confidence-revving anthems as curated by the Girl Guides themselves.
For the past month we’ve been asking our lady friends who they’d drafted into their coolgirl army. Based on the last thirty days there’s no question who we’d want in our: five writers, four photographers, three DJs and a self-proclaimed cat lady to name a few. Maybe we’d even roll up on pink skateboards. Look out world – we’re taking over~ read more…
It might sound like the stuff of urban legends, but Lorde, singer of teen angst and supporter of broody lip stains, once wore a head-to-toe pink suit. Of course, only an occasion so monumental in size and setlist could evoke such fabled sites as the teen dream zombie queen in shades of kobi, all whilst Annie Clark played front woman to Dave Grohl on the drums. The event in question, Nirvana’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, brought about said dreamy scenes along with appearances by ladyrockers Joan Jett and Kim Gordon.
Though the band only received their musical honor this past April, Kurt + Courtney have long since pledge allegiance to our fave couples of yesteryear club (Johnny + Kate also hold honorary membership). As Lady Love turns a young 5-0 today, we’re celebrating with an ode to the duo that was. In hardships, in loveship, in matching blond bobs, here’s to a pair that made history both together and apart. We’ve got covers, original tracks, and even songs that name drop the big K.
I mean, what better way to celebrate turning half a century young than with a reggae cover of “Come As You Are” – amiright? read more…
