JUST DO IT ALREADY.



i feel like i've been really dormant on this blog lately. if you really must know i've just been listening to a strict diet of stevie nicks and country music for the last 2 weeks. 
didn't think you really wanted to know.

girls with bows.

if you say moustache... 
...oh i outta.


mounted my bows on my wall recently and suddenly i feel so much more at ease in this room. 
just listening to keith urban and zac brown band hoping i can keep listening to country music once the summer ends. 

strange putting up a post like this but screw it, i run this.
wierd to think of the amount of country music i listen to and the fact that it's never mentioned here. this is me mentioning it. 

also getting tickets to see Yukon Blonde, The Sheepdogs and Mother Mother. Purity Ring approaches. JEEPERS. Last time I saw Yukon Blonde they covered this song and we rocked hard. 


if you can't appreciate that harmonica....
.... oh i outta.

CHEERS.

hometown glory

so much to catch up on! 
i'm workin on it friends... been too busy moving and shaking and catching up with the september issue and my room mates and the fashion blogosphere (i constantly think of starting a fashion blog but i don't think it's socially acceptable to spread myself that thin across essentially every medium of social interaction within the internet. i guess i'll just keep dreaming til i burst.)

PRINCE CASPIAN
this man right here. 
believe it or not he's originally from my very own tiny hometown, wherein we used to oggle from afar at his skinny jeans and pretty face as he belted out homemade lyrics over a killer ska beat.
lately however he's becoming an underground pop creature of Toronto and he threw out a new mixtape this summer that brings me such hometown pride. 



it's so fresh to hear such honest pop music, especially when it boasts direct references to my home turf. the album art is the work of a good friend of mine, Rebecca Ladds. If you hang around tumblr long enough you'll have seen her outstanding work for certain, it circulates like the plague. nice to know such talented and beautiful young people, if anything strictly so i can boast about them like i almost have a real life. 
so proud.

everything i want.

she's perfect.


i think i'll always come back to stevie
she's just perfect. 
unassuming. 
casual. 
and straight up.

this is one of my favourite songs. always brings me back to the right place. treat it well for me.
love and things,
 a.rae

home for a rest.


in between homes at the moment--left the island yesterday, off to halifax tomorrow.
sorry to admit it but my summer was probably iller than yours. 
as evidence (and in case you forget what i look like), here's me at my workplace (yes that's a bow. i shoot dangerous weapons for a living). 



photo courtesy of this fine maidenkatja, miss you already. 
be spending my plane ride tomorrow browsing the September issue of Vogue and compiling all my new summer beats. will be in touch... missed the internets.

let's see if this works?


so it’s raining and I’m eating greek yogurt and twiddling my thumbs in need of a project.
so I have a proposition for you all, little forest creatures.


COMMENT BELOW.
pour out your various woes and heartaches and personal life crises, or unfold your life dreams and gay happy spirits.
lay it on me, kids.
I’ll respond with an appropriate audio recommendation which will accompany your current platter of emotional delights.
consider me your electro therapist. I prescribe appropriate beats. although whatever it is, Greek yogurt will probably fix it. tastes like freakin ice cream, and we like that.

this probably won’t work, and you’ll all get to look at the “0 comments” indicator and laugh at my silliness. but you see, little ones I always have the upper hand.
for I, silly things, have the yogurt.

good morrow my dearests, and happy commenting. 

shout out

thanks to this kid on the right...


... for introducing me to some dang fine MAJOR LAZER tings.
she also has a kickin music blog.


but actually this song. tasty. wait it out, the drop will change your life. that's all i have to say.
roll on.
