indie banana

Growing up, the Velvet Underground and Nico was the album that never left my cd player. Years later, I'm still amazed at the moving simpliticty of their songs and lyrics. A lot has been written on the enourmous influence this album had upon subsequent punk, rock and indie bands, so I'll end this here. 

So imagine how my curiosity sparked when I discovered this:

Several Argentinean bands grouped to pay tribute to the Velvet Underground - this is what came out of the experience

The album is of public domain and can be downloaded for free here

we are never alone

I climbed to the roof today, to watch one of the last summer sunsets I'll see in a while, only to realize that I wasn't alone. In some other house, others were doing the same. I can't really explain why, but it made me feel all warm inside. 

i still dream

I wore this dress today. And bought this cute little fellow for about 50 cents. I like him. And he always lands on his feet. 

The sticker on my headboard says "I still dream". I like it, makes me feel strangely optimistic about life when things get too confusing. 

While I have always defined myself as a "winter person", I cannot help but to find summer mornings beautiful. Light is everywhere and, even if in the darkest mood, you can't help but wanting to go outside.

Winter will soon be arriving, and my daily activities will change. From riding my bike in the sun and having fresh fruit juice for breakfast, to knitting and drinking hot chocolate before going to bed. But for the time being... I'm enjoying what summer still has to offer!

I have been wearing this dress a lot this summer. I usually never wear white but the cute pockets and child-like shape of this dress really captured me...
