What’s shaking hombres?
Big changes rumbling in these parts. Rather than going on a rant, or something along those lines, I’m going to share some of my favourite blogs/ pages of late.
I’ve had some free time on my hands lately and as a result, I have lots of time to search out cool stuff on the interwebs.
I’d like this to be a regular feature, but let’s face it, the only thing I can commit to doing regularly is eating bacon.
First up: Melrose and Fairfax . This is a totally rad blog that chronicles LA graffiti/ street art. If you’ve been following the news from LA at all, Banksy’s work has been appearing all over town in the lead up to the Oscars on Sunday night where Banksy’s film Exit Through the Giftshop is up for a tiny golden man statue.
Longform.org is pretty much the coolest thing ever. It’s a finely curated selection of long-form articles from various outlets all in one place! I’ve read articles about Price is Right contestants, teenage drug lords, spies, a Harem girl, how elephants are experiencing a collapse in their society, a children’s performer with a gambling problem, the list goes on.
Things Organized Neatly deeply appeals to my deeply buried sense of OCD.
I dig this chick’s style, or steeze if you will, as it is more a blend of style and aesthetics.
I mostly just read Sometimes Sweet for her weekly “Tattoo Tuesday” feature so I can live vicariously through ladies with rad tattoos. But she is a cool young mom as well as being a chick with nice tattoos.
And finally, I’ve been lusting after nice apartments lately. My current digs are we’ll say… “shabby chic”. The place is literally starting to fall down around me, but I hate moving. It’s small and I need to downsize my furniture a bit, but I’m lazy and broke… so I’ve been looking at spaces that are pretty instead. One day, I will live in an apartment that is worthy of these lovely sites…. Decor8 and Apartment Therapy .
Ta da!
