Music Monday!

The Lumineers recently gained popularity for their single, “Ho Hey“, but that’s hardly the best song on their album. If this is the only song you’ve heard by them, I strongly recommend you listen to the rest of their album, it’s amazing. I haven’t listened to an album in the longest time where I can genuinely say I enjoy every single song. Their sound is eclectic and raw and truly a treat to listen to. Enjoy!

Tumblr Tuesday!

Hello fellow bloggers!

I’ve been meaning to share some of my favorite Tumblr accounts for a while now, but I kept getting side-tracked! For those of you who don’t know what Tumblr is, it’s another blogging platform (like WordPress), however, it’s much more streamlined and mostly images are circulated. Of course, there are options to post links, quotes, audio, and video.

What I like most about Tumblr is that there is so much variety. What I mean is, you log on and never know what your dashboard (similar to the WordPress “feed”) will look like. With Pinterest, there is a lot of repetition and being on the site gets boring after awhile. On WordPress, you really have to know who to follow to make the most of your experience. But, on Tumblr, I’ve uncovered so many unique blogs just by clicking around. There is literally a blog for everything. Obsessed with One Direction? Lover of Pizza? Or maybe you want to see cats with lots of money? Tumblr has it all.

With that being said, here is a list of my all-time favorite Tumblr pages (in no particular order):

1. MONSTAFEVA– Artist Fefe Talavera’s tumblr account is just as insane as her paintings. 
2. Think Different– Just a truly awesome collection of images, and even better music.
3. Dior– Dior’s official Tumblr account, need I say more?
4. Bohemea– Fashion & Film stills. In one word: Chic.
5. Vintage Gal-Everything from classic movie GIFs to retro pin-up goddesses, this is the perfect vintage blog.
6. Through Opened Eyes– What I’d imagine an acid trip to be like—an endless supply of really weird images, I love it.
7. Explore– I’ve learned so much by following this blog—great quotes, articles, and videos.
8. Beautiful Swear Words– NSFW; Being vulgar has never been so vogue.
9. rADVENTURES– A collaborative effort by a group of friends sharing their rad adventures (get it? rADVENTURES..)
10. Black and White– Only black and white photos, beautiful.

Ok, I think 10 is a good place to stop. If you have a tumblr, leave a comment with your URL! I’d love to check your page out! Also, if you have any suggestions of other blogs I should follow, comment and let me know!

Blogging from Space!

This blog has to be one of the coolest things I’ve seen on the internet in awhile. Canadian astronaut, Chris Hadfield, is currently living in space as a flight engineer. He captures images of the Earth and is sharing them online. How neat!

The picture above, of New York City at night, is just one of many amazing images you can find on his page.
