Life is a ball and it should always be a costumed one ;)

FINALLY! finally, finally finaaaaaalllyyyyy it was GA GA TIME!!!!!!!

Last spring we went to buy tickets to the GaGa concert which was in September. Of course it sold out in like 1.3 seconds and we didn't get tickets. So they ended up adding another date and we bought tickets like the next week to the February show. So patiently we had to wait almost a YEAR to see her! And mannnn was it worth the wait!

She not only performed the hell out of every song, she brought such a strong empowering message that it was hard to not be touched by her concert. It honestly was like halloween. SO many people were dressed in leotards, caution tape, spandex, fun tights, ridiculous make up, and even a meat dress or two.

At one point of the night GaGa said:
"If there's ever been anyone or anything that's ever made you feel like you don't belong or you don't fit in. Or ever made you feel like you're not good enough or thin enough or pretty enough. Or you can't sing well enough. Or dance well enough. Or write a song well enough. Or you'll never win a Grammy. Or you'll never sell out an arena.You just remember you're a god damn super star and you were born this way. Make tonight be your liberation of all those things. And don't leave loving me more, but leave loving yourself more."

The crowd went willllllllddddddddddddddddddddd. There were honestly so many good performances I can't decide which one was my favorite. I've narrowed it down to Alejandro, Telephone, Paparazzi and Bad Romance.

Honestly, such a goooooooooooooood concert. I wanted to post some videos on here from the concert, but I'm pretty sure that's illegal and I'm trying to be a legal blogger ;) hahaha

Her new video came out today though!! Check. It. Outtttttt:




Peace, Love, and Little Monsters :)

Virtual Vision Boards!

My friend Agnes has blogged about vision boards and I've always wanted to create one. Vision boards are really a board of assorted pictures, quotes, etc that you envision you want to achieve. Something that can help push you to your goals and help motivate you everyday! Now, you know I'm a virtual person so I never made an actual 'board'. This evening I've been feeling really really crappy (I need a new immune system) and I decided to make my own virtual vision board!

So here it is... my VIRTUAL vision board

Listen to this:
I'm kinda obsessed with this song right now. Hope you like it!! :)



Peace, Love and Visions

Ohhh hello NYC ;)

So this past weekend I totally had a 'dream nyc' weekend. I shopped, I walked around, got totally lost, got on the wrong subway going in the wrong direction (Al would have been proud of me), learned a lot about the city, tried new things, had so much fun!!!!

I went out on Sunday with a mission. $100. I wanted boots and all the accessories I could buy. I wanted to try pink berry. And I wanted to learn Soho (and see the Dash store- obvi).

I'll say I was very successful.I didn't go over my $100. I got 4 headbands, a hat, 2 scarves, a ring, boots, 2 tank tops, 3 candles, jeans, pink berry anddddddddd a hot dog haha! (and then I did buy hair dye and laundry detergent that pushed me over the budget, but that's ok- that doesn't count)

I found this store called So Good- it's on Broadway right past China Town (if you're walking uptown from my apt!). I won't lie- it's all costume jewelry and accessories, but if my mom, sister and I ever opened a store it would totally be like this. LOVED IT!


In my tour of Soho I definitely stopped at the Dash store. Obviously had to. Now I just need to make a trip to LA to go see the one out there so I can say I've officially been to all of them.


When I asked my roommate Rj if he'd heard that the Dash NYC was going to be carrying Scott's new clothing line he answered with 'I don't keep up with the kardashians' hahahaha I loved that line. I laughed for awhile.

Can't wait to explore more!! We did walk up to Bryant Park thinking that the fashion week stuff was going on there only to find that it was nottttttt and it was at Lincoln center... which was about 40 more blocks away. We had been walking for about 2 hrs at that point and we decided that we put in good effort, but we were done and didn't want to walk all the way up there. Maybe next year I'll see NYC fashion week! hahaha

Download itttttttttttttttt:
Came across an oldie, but goodie the other day. It came on while I had my ipod on shuffle and I got excited cause I haven't heard it in like 12 years.



Peace, Love, SOHO!!!!!

So there's a local band in Pittsburgh that's amaazzzinnngggg- Fountain Infinity. I've had the pleasure of meeting them through one of my friends. Check them out!! They're awesome https://www.facebook.com/fountain.infinity

They played at the Hard Rock Cafe in January (I unfortunately wasn't able to make their show- was actually flying back from NYC at the time!) but I'm pretty upset I missed it!!!
