Floating Points, King Bromeliad

Posted on June 30, 2014 by Hellin Kay

Great track from UK based Sam Shepherd aka Floating Points. Let it play a few seconds, it’s a slow build and then the beat comes into focus. Perfect for summer parties. (Lots of BBQs this weekend!)

USA

If we actually wore this outfit to Thursday’s final qualifying game the US is playing against Germany (12noon at any bar within five feet of you) we would definitely be the odd woman out but let’s not over think it, wouldn’t be the first time. Obviously we are all still reeling from that last second loss to Portugal on Sunday and thinking of cute red, white and blue outfits is taking my mind off the heartbreak. Givenchy stars and stripes t-shirt, Scoop nautical stripe canvas rope tote, Alice and Olivia Laine Puff skirt, and Christian Louboutin heels. If you can handle it, watch the heartbreak here.

A Life of Diana Vreeland

Posted on June 24, 2014 by Hellin Kay

Over the weekend, in between football games, I finished this incredible book by Amanda Mackenzie Stuart, which I added to my summer reading list. The most interesting and thorough over view of this phenomenal woman’s life. It made me miss working for Polly Mellen, who I only assisted for one year before she retired. What an amazing history, so much creativity, strength, beauty and power to change the world we exist in. I know I was always supposed to be in awe of Ms. Vreeland because she invented the career that I have worked, lived and loved for so long but I never really knew the details of her life or the true manner in which she affected so much. I love this book.

Tomboy, Hang Out

Posted on June 20, 2014 by Hellin Kay

I won’t overstate the obvious about why I love this video for “Hang Out” (watch below). Great electro pop track and perfect short film from Brooklyn based duo Tomboy, Sarah Aument and William Shore, from their upcoming self-titled debut EP. They’re playing June 30th with Beat Connection at School Night at Brooklyn Bowl and July 24th at Neon Gold’s Popshop at Westway. Continue reading →
