Music Mondays: Festival Season is Never Ending


Happy Monday everyone! Just want to say that this past weekend, the EC Twins rocked it at Vessel! They packed the house and put on an amazing set! Can't wait to have them back in San Francisco again. Also, I am still in shock that after my decision to skip the Alesso and Sebastian Ingrosso show at Ruby Skye, they  cancelled last minute due to flight complications. I sympathize for all who went to the show or were planning on it! What a bummer!  Good news is for all who bought tickets, their money is being refunded and also the show is apparently set to be rescheduled! That means they have a lot of making up to do!

And now on to music Mondays....

So everyone, what do you like better? Christmas or Festival Season?
The answer should be...Festival Season duh. (Hope you have all seen one of the best movies ever Wedding Crashers to get my reference here :)

Anyways, while there really isn't any particular hot season for music festivals, as they are constantly popping up everywhere all the time, here is a list of ones you should mark on your calendars to check out in the upcoming year!

1. Snowglobe Music Festival - December 29-31, 2011 Lake Tahoe
http://snowglobemusicfestival.com/

This festival is happening this NYE in South Lake Tahoe and is a three day snow fest with headliners Bassnectar, Pretty Lights, Thievery Corporation and Glitch Mob. This should be a fun weekend up in the mountains so put on your snow gear and buy your tickets now! 




2. BPM Music Festival - December 29- January 8, 2012 - Playa Del Carmen


I have never attended this festival, but what sounds bad about about being in Mexico, on the beach for NYE with amazing music and gorgeous people! This is a week long festival in Playa Del Carmen and looks absolutely incredible!

3.  Tomorrowland - July 27-29, 2012  Belgium
This festival is at the top of my list for next year! It is in Belgium in July next year and from this video really does seem like a fantasy world. To quote from the website the theme ...
Yesterday is History, Today is a Gift, Tomorrow is Mystery..

4. Ultra Music Festival - March 23-26, 2012 Miami FL
Ultra Music Festival in Miami is an amazing electronic music festival. I went a couple of years ago and it was so much fun! You can hop between the festival, amazing South Beach nightclubs, and yacht parties with people who all love house music! Miami is a sexy place and there definitely will be some major headliners in 2012!

5. Coachella - April 13-15 & April 20-22, 2012 - Indio California
This is the best music festival of all time! I had the most amazing experience last year and was so sad when it ended! It inlcudes all genres of music including house, hip hop, rock, pop, just to name a few! Headliners from the past couple of years include DeadMau5, Tiesto, Kanye West, Kings of Leon, Empire of the Sun, and more! Due to the popularity of this event, Coachella is putting on two back to back weekends so that more people can enjoy and have the opportunity to experience this musical heaven as it sold out last year and there were so many people unable to go! I absolutely can't wait for this!


Every year, a blog about Girls of Coachella is released and look who made the cut this year... my friend Karrie, Emily and I. Thanks to the shoulders who helped us out!!!! Check the link out below.... there are shots of Paris Hilton, Rihanna,  Kelly Osborne, Kirsten Dunst and my friend Emily!!! Looks like we are rolling with the big dogs :)

House music + Vegas + carnival = HOT.com

Funny Fridays: I better have a funny baby when I grow up!


For my Friday laughs it's all about the little ones...babies. They can be the most hilarious creatures on the planet! I secretly want one so I can be entertained by the silly things they do...Okay maybe I do not really want one, but still...they are just too darn cute! 

I want to laugh as much as this baby....so I'm going to keep watching this over and over.


Jimmy Kimmel - I told my kids I ate all of their Halloween Candy. 
This video cracks me up so much. I want to ask my mom and dad if I was this attached to my Halloween candy as these kids. I think it was more so with dolls and toys. I would probably have a similar reaction if this happened to me now...yes I can be a brat! 


OMG. Baby timeout. Time to sit in the watermelon you have been a bad little boy! 


Someone got scared :) 

Happy Friday everyone. Go find a baby...a funny one...NOW :)

Thirsty Thursdays: Alesso, Sebastian, EC Twins, Sex Ray Vision



Hey everyone! So looks like it is going to be another music filled weekend in San Francisco! I'm starting to feel like all I hear is house music in my ears these days....and I'm okay with that!

So Friday night at Ruby Skye is Alesso, my new favorite DJ, who I have been dying to see for months now since he popped up in the house music scene. He is a young talent from Sweden and is killing every single remix he makes! He will be spinning with Sebastian Ingrosso, one of the members of Swedish House Mafia, and I heard the pair of them together are not to be missed. I can't wait to see them live!

Here is my favorite song from him!!!! Good Love :) 

My other fave from Sebastian and Alesso! 

Then Saturday is the EC Twins at Vessel Nightclub! They are an amazing DJ duo and their songs make everyone want to party! They are really making a name for themselves in LA and it is always exciting to see them come to San Francisco! 


Love this song and video! 

Lastly, Sex Ray Vision will be djing at Noble for the Electric Nights party! I have been following these two Stanford students for awhile now on Soundcloud and they are REALLY good! This should be a really fun event and it is my friend Rachel's birthday there! 


My favorite remix of theirs is Lights !  http://soundcloud.com/sexrayvision/lights-sex-ray-vision-remix/

Wear it Wednesdays: Movember ...So hot right now

Move over clean shaven faces...It's November and that one means one thing...Mustache season!
If you aren't familiar let me get you acquainted with Movember - the month where boys and men all over stop using their razors and grow out a sexy or maybe not so sexy mustache to raise awareness for men's health issues. According to the Movember folks they want to " make male health fun by putting the Mo (moustache) back on the face of fashion and in the process raise some serious funds." I think this is such an amazing idea and who doesn't love seeing a silly stache on a friend's face :) I know a lot of girls do not like this look, but I say...guess you will have to deal with it for a month. You can go shave your back now . heheh (If you don't get that watch the movie Mean Girls :)

Cutest little mustache I have ever seen :)

To get involved here is the website to check it out!  http://us.movember.com/ 
Some of the showcased Mo's on the site: http://us.movember.com/mo-community/mo-photos/ 


If you haven't seen it yet, here's a comedic tip on how us girls can "get involved": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Umh40wbMgd4

SF puts the Mo in Vember ..Duh !!!!

Music Mondays: EC Twins!!!!


My favorite twins are coming to town this weekend!!!! The EC twins of course! They are an amazing DJ duo from the UK who are now making a huge name  for themselves in the LA music scene! They have so much energy and always put on a good show! I remember the first time I saw them was back in January of this year in Las Vegas. They were spinning at Marquee and I was in awe. They know how to rock the crowd and they play the best house music out there! Can't wait to see them at Vessel this Saturday night!  Oh ya and their food dj name is EC twinkies :)

Thirty Thursdays: Boomer Sooner weekend in Oklahoma!

Hey y'all. That's my southern accent coming out already :) I am off to Oklahoma for the weekend and I'm sure you are all confused as to why in the world I would be going there...well my little sister Amanda is going to school at OU and it is her last year, so I figured why not visit and pretend like I'm a college kid for the weekend :)

This will be my third time out there and while I would say it's a lot different from Sf in terms of nightlife and the party scene, it is still such a fun place to visit!

They are obsessed with football out there and so going to the big games and the bars around the campus in Norman is so much fun! Last time I think I "missed" most of the game. Lol. That happens to me at most sporting events I attend!

Also, I am looking forward to visiting my sister's work, an up and coming company QuiBids, where apparently I'm Famous for being that girl from California's crazy sister with the valley girl blog. It's like I'm Kim Kardashian ...almost....lol. She reads my blog to them daily in a "lala" voice and I guess it is pretty comical. I hope I live up to all their expectations of me!

One last thing, I'm so excited to be getting to attend my cousin Missy's baby shower while there! She is having twins and I'm really excited to see her!

Ok ya'll wish me luck!

Wear it Wednesdays: Halloween Fashion Faves




Breaking down the Halloween weekend attire
So for Saturday night of Halloween, my friends and I decided to dress up as sexy martians. We went all out and let's just say I think we got the most compliments on our outfits out of anyone that night. Ok...that's being a little cocky, but hey they were super cute! We went to the Deadmau5 show in these and it was AMAZING!!!! Our light up guns and headbands fit right in with all the raver kids. I think so much I was given a bracelet that night by a girl who likes girls...I was flattered....until she asked for my phone number and I got a little bit scared lol..


On Friday night, I was a magical unicorn and here is my princess Anna :) I hope Skrillex liked my handmade outfit that night ! 

Mustache Bandits!

Yes my friends are insane. They go as full on horses for Halloween. @Aaron O'Brien and Josh Hadley!!!!! 

 
Mugatu from Zoolander! Best idea ever Hadley!!! 




Yep, that is me as a bunny in my third and thankfully final night of Halloween festivities at the Tiesto show at Ruby Skye. We got on stage and had a blast with him! He rocked it and it was an amazing end to the weekend!!!! 

I'm now on a break after this Halloween weekend but can't wait for next year! Outfit planning starts now!
