Top 3 songs/artists/albums I can't stop listen to!

   Listening to/reading and talking about music are one of my favorite things to do. I also collect albums of my favorite artists. My dad is a musician and my whole life is filled with music. I can't describe the music that I am listening to with one word or style...but some call it brit-pop or indie. I am not a big fan of labels and I don't like to set myself boundaries, so you can see me dancing on Rihanna and ... Foster the People after that :D If you have read my post "We are hipsters and we know it", you'd say that I'm a half-hipster ... if there is something like this. Like I love to say "Old but still gold...Shit but still hit". If I have to be honest, you can find on my iPod brit ... and shit-pop :D Under "shit-pop" I mean Rihanna, Beyonce and everything that you can hear on MTV. The last few years my music-taste has changed and the first artists that helped me realise which is the music that is worth listening to were - Florence&The Machine, La Roux, Kasabian, Lily Allen and Broken Bells. I will always remember them as my first music-loves!!! Music can change your life as your first true love has - you will always remember it and it will bring you unfortgettable memories. 

  TOP 3 favorite artists 

1. Kasabian Kasabian Kasabian... and again Kasabian! If someone asks me - "Which is my favorite band", the first thing that comes in my head is Kasabian! With their amazing sound, lyrics and ... stunning Tom Meighan :D I was speechless when I was on their concert last year. I wish you all to be at my place ... Favorite songs - Clubfoot / Where did all the love go / Re-weird

first album - Kasabian 

2. I can honestly say that Florence&The Machine will stay forever in my heart. When I started listening to more indie music, they were one of my first choices. I have heard so many things about them before and what I can say now is that  they are really worth hearing. Their first album "Lungs" is one of the first CD's that I bought. Favorite songs - You've got love (it is actually a cover, but is one of my favorite) / The Dog Days are over / Lover to Lover ... and so many others.

first album - Lungs

3. I will end with the dramatic  Lana Del Rey. You can hear a lot about her - some like her, some hate her. What I can say is that she brings some kind of retro and dramatic feeling which I personally like. Her music is perfect for the moments when you just want to be sad for a while and you don't want someone to tell you "Are you ok?". Favorite songs - What makes us girls / Born to die / Blue Jeans.

Hey guys :) Yesterday was my 16th birthday or like someone call it "Super sweet sixteen"!!! I can say with no doubt that this was one of my best days ever, I won't use the word "sweet" because of how The Verve have said - "'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life". I realised how many true friends I have. They made me so happy with all of the lovely words and sweet wishes they said to me. I got a beautiful bouquet from my BFFs and amazing presents, which I will show you later :)) I brought my camera at school and made some pictures with my friends, which you can see below. The skirt that I wear is from Tally Weijl and I bought it a few days before my birthday. I really like this a-simetric trend.

This was my little present for my closest friends :)

Old Sofia

Like every old city, Sofia has her secret places where you feel far from the cars, the people and the noise. I found this backyard with this beautiful door on onе of the small streets in the center of the city!!! I think, this will become my favorite spot for shooting. I feel like I am in Wien or Budapest when I see something like this here, in Sofia where the beautiful building are replaced with ugly modern buildings which I call "glass-houses"...But remember, you can always find "your place" :)

Smile even when the weather doesn't

After the beautiful sunny days, the rain decided that we had have enough of the sun and came back :( But... I think that shouldn't bother us, just take out your rainy clothes and put a smile on your face - it always helps in the cloudy days :)

Friday, I am in love

...like The Cure have said in one of their songs. I decided to celebrate love with this outfit. I've found this skirt in one of the many second-hand-shops in my hometown and I think I've gave only 1 euro for it!!! The top is from House and has this beautiful lettering on it - Amour, Je t'aime... And of course my favorite Ray-Ban glasses, which complete all of my outfits. I hope you'll like it...
