be blushless

I’ll be the rhythm and you’ll be the beat

How deep is your love? My friend Julia just sent me a link to a rad article from the guardian:
“They say love conquers all. But can your love conquer a pan-pipe cover version of Sexual Healing?”
Charlie Brookers amazing idea was to create a digital mixtape with the worst cheesiest lovesongs ever.
If you can stand listening to it together, and it doesn’t kill your love-mood at all then you know for sure that you are madly in love.”How can you be sure the pair of you really like each other? By trying to have sex while listening to a deliberately off-putting musical playlist, of course.
My playlist, while tasteless in parts, doesn’t contain anything quite that horrifying, but it should prove one heck of an obstacle course. All you have to do is download and install Spotify, then go to this URL. Click around a bit and it should open the compilation….It won’t be easy. But if you make it to the end, then congratulations: you’ve proved your love will abide through the ages. Oh, and as a bonus, pick one of the entries for a wedding song. Then watch all your guests throw up.”
Ok, I wouldn’t go that far! But thanks for this love test idea Charlie!

if you worried about the weather…

…then you picked the wrong place to stay!
this is a quote from another favorite musician of Liv:
Lcd Soundsystem
Stuck between London and Berlin the weather could be definitely better.
I have been freezing for one week now and its constantly raining.
Its so very cold in bed without Lav. (4more cold sleeps!)
I really like it hot! But you know what?
The English consider rain on a wedding day a sign of good fortune! Smart people the British.
It was in England that many of our most enduring Western European wedding traditions got their beginning.
Most of us know the ancient nursery rhyme about something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue. It became an important part of most Western European weddings, even though many brides and grooms no longer know the significance of the rhyme:
Something old is symbolic of continuity. The old item was often a piece of lace or a grandmother’s scarf or an old piece of jewelry. Something new signifies hope for the future, and can be anything from a piece of clothing to the wedding band itself. Something borrowed is symbolic of future happiness and is often provided by a happily married friend of the bride. And finally, something blue. In ancient times blue was the color of purity and often both the bride and the groom wore a band of blue cloth around the bottom of their wedding attire.

If you are still worried about the weather just leave for a six month honeymoon to sunny countries!
Oh damn! I really feel like traveling… or listening to the great northamerican dance-punk of lcd soundsystem-
Life is too short to worry about the weather!

Wouldn’t this be a great grooms outifit?
The black buttons on the shirt are a rad alternative to a tie.
I saw this picture in just relaunched magazine CITY.
Its all about the city, you know, the city Liv is missing every day…
They wrote a great article about the London indie rock band
CAZALS, this guys are just looking amazing in this photoshoot.
Just like rock star grooms.
Not only that the band has a great style, they also made this awesome
little lovestory video: HAPPY WEEKEND:

Liv loves the yeah yeah yeahs!
They inspire me a lot, remind me of how f*ing much I am missing
NYC and make my days over here rock!
Jumping through my studio….
High on caffeine (uhm,I am also hard working at the same time)
Oh yeah yeah yeah!
I wanna share this part of lyrics that really got me!
(when Lav told me it reminded him of us, uh,wow!)

Baby I’m afraid of a lot of things
but I aint scared of loving you
baby I know your afraid of a lot of things
but don’t be scared of love
cause people will say all kinds of things
that don’t mean a dam to me
cause all I see is what’s in front of me
and thats you

Well, I’ve been dragged all over the place
i’ve taken hits time just don’t erase
and baby I can see you’ve been fucked with too
but that don’t mean your loving days are through
cause people will say all kinds of things
that don’t mean a dam to me
cause all I see is what’s in front of me and thats you

well I may be just a fool
but I know you are just as cool
and cool kids they belong together

Let’s share the LURVE !

Woody Allens amazing declaration of love in Annie Hall
(yes i would recommend that movie!!!) inspired the title of a great new magazine project:

Do you love me?
Love is too weak a word for what I feel -
I luuurve you, you know,
I loave you, I luff you, two F’s,
yes I have to invent, of course I – I do, don’t you think I do?

Taking inspiration from this charming dialogue, a group of of passionate people based in Berlin, have launched a magazine called LURVE.They were looking for a fashion publication ahead of trends and with more depth, yet visually striking.
Miles away from the usual fashion glossy, the magazine puts the emphasis on emerging designers and artists, new talents and creators of our future.
Crossing the fields of arts, fashion and music, LURVE is the voice of a more demanding generation eager to explore contemporary culture and creation, beyond the mainstream.
Pretty cool,huh?
