Music Monday: Brain Dead by Alex Goot

No Comments »


If you don't know who Alex Goot is...you should remedy this immediately. You can look him up on Spotify or the YouTube, then sit back and prepare to be amazed. Not only does he have a nice little collection of amazing songs that he wrote, but his covers are just breath taking interpretations...yes, even one's like Call Me Maybe.

This Music Monday is about one of his original songs titled "Brain Dead" of his new album 'Wake Up Call'.

I don't know what draws me into this song more: the catchy beat in the intro, Alex's crisp clear vocals, or the lyrics that show how damaged people can get in relationships without realizing it.

"I have no clue how I'm with you
And I've started to realize
I've been brain dead all this time."

It's such a paradox to me because the song itself is so upbeat despite that lyrics intention when you really listen.

I still adore it though...I would go so far as to say it's my favorite off his new album...

But be sure to check out the whole thing!! Let me know which is your favorite!


Wardrobe Wanted: Suspenders

No Comments »


So...you'll learn I love a good alliteration such as 'wardrobe wanted' and 'music monday'....

The first piece of clothing for my dream closet or what I want in my wardrobe are these amazing pair of suspenders. They are a high waisted black denim pair with front and back pockets. You can never have enough pockets right? The straps are a faux leather and adjustable.




There are just so many options of ways to wear them! Above you see them as pictured on DailyLook which are perfect day ways to wear them in the city. If I were to wear them to the beach I'd add a flowery crop top like this one.

For an evening look I'd wear a green dressy top like this one, then add a pair of heels.

Music Monday: Good Girl by 5SOS

So Music Monday is my new thing...let's give it a whirl shall we?

I'm going to start with my personal song of the summer: 'Good Girl' by 5 Seconds of Summer. These Aussie boys had me at 'She Looks So Perfect'. It was hard to picture myself with a boy who didn't wear American Apparel underwear after that....

However, their newest song 'Good Girl' is just too damn catchy.

I'll admit it is a little cliche about the girl next door being a bad girl when no one is looking. Yet, these boys still make the story fun and exciting. You can't help but dance along when you hear it, I promise.

Once I heard the line tag line: "good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught," I switched my Spotify to repeat it over and over until I had the song memorized.

I hope you enjoy the first song of Music Mondays! Be sure to tweet me your personal song for the summer with the hastag #MusicMonday !!
