Movin' Out


Hello It's Me!

I'm supposed to be packing right now. Instead, I am blogging whilst listening to Todd Rundgren. I guess this is my 10th break from packing! (I am trying to post something quick to make up for my lack of activity on this blog.)

The tune is somewhat melancholy, matching up with my gloominess of moving.

As a memory/tribute to my room I decided to snap a couple pictures on my phone. A thanks must go out to the "Hipstamatic" for making all my photos look effortlessly cool and 'hipster'...
Prior to packing:

Jammin' on the Best Coast



Style Beats- Where the beats (or jams) of music combine with the aesthetics and moods of photos and fashion.
With this blog I plan to to write about my two greatest inspirations: music and fashion. Music is infectious! It inspires my imagination (I am somewhat of a daydreamer) and it effects my creative mood. I am constantly being inspired by my favorite songs and editorial photos while I am collaging, drawing, and, yes, even deciding what to wear. I'm a bit of a fashion freak at times.
With my blog, Style Beats, I hope that I can inspire readers!
So, enough of the cheesy-ness, & tune in for the thoughts of a serial dreamer.


I absolutely love Best Coast. From the West Coast, their music is sweet and jingly. Their songs are a daydreamer's world; I get lost sipping iced tea in a setting of fields, floating around in long creamy dresses with flowers in my hair.

This song is for lazily hanging out by the beach, wildly running down sun-beaten sidewalks, chewing bubblegum, my idle dream, or whatever it is you feel like doing on a deserted summer day.

Hanging out with your sun-bleached, beach hair.. The West Coast vibe. (Vans ad)


I love this shot. It's eerie and somewhat lonely, as Cherrie makes her way across the cracked asphalt, passing a lone car. It somehow goes along with the laziness of "When I'm With You". (screenshot from The Runaways)

I just had to include this; it's too perfect! Floating in a picture-printed, field dress! (Rodarte F'11)
