Weekend Playlist: Get Down Tonight

By |April 28th, 2012|Weekend Playlist|

roller disco partyHere’s a question:  What better way to celebrate a birthday than with a 70’s disco roller skating party?  Answer: There is no better way.  My favorite guest DJ and all around crafty lady, Katie (aka the best friend a girl could ask for), is celebrating her golden birthday this weekend.  No, Kim, that’s nothing even remotely close to a golden shower.  A golden birthday is when you turn your age, say 22, on the day, the 22nd.  Get it?

So, while we are combing out our afros and stretching out our leotards, we’ll be getting in the mood with this 70’s inspired playlist.  And probably drinking a little prosecco too.

Send Katie a little birthday love while you’re at it.

Weekend Playlist: Ticket to Ride

By |April 14th, 2012|Weekend Playlist|

Couldn’t make it to Coachella this weekend?  Or maybe large crowds just give you anxiety.  No worries, I’ve gone ahead and taken the liberty of putting together a nice little playlist of some of the artists that will be taking the stage and rocking out.  You get the best of both worlds: you can enjoy the sounds safely in the comfort of your own home without having to even put on your best Coachella outfit!  Sure, it’s not quite the same, but hey, the bathroom line is a whole lot shorter.

Weekend Playlist: Mad About You

By |March 10th, 2012|Weekend Playlist|

people i want to punch in the faceI try and practice an insane amount of self control.  And for the most part, I remain cool as a cucumber, but every now and then I just want to scream at people, dropkick inanimate objects, and punch the hell out of a pillow.  That is when it is truly necessary to have a playlist full of songs as angry as I am.  (A punching bag never hurt either).

workout playlist

Conveniently, this playlist doubles as a fantastic workout playlist… and everyone knows that looking good is the best revenge.

P.S. I do not in any way, shape, or form, condone violence (except against pillows).  There are far more clever ways to take out your frustrations.

Weekend Playlist: Love You Like a Love Song

If you aren’t a part of the “I Hate Love” Club,  it’s quite possible that you love a good love song.  Cheesy, yes, but these saccharin sweet ditties will have you bouncing in your seat in no time.

Much love.

Weekend Playlist: The Anti-Valentine

By |February 4th, 2012|Weekend Playlist|

anti valentines daySo, let’s say you’re not into the love fest that is Valentine’s Day.  Nothing wrong with that (and you are not alone, my friend).  Some of my most fun Valentine’s Days were not spent lamenting love, but cutting loose with friends instead.  Whether that included cupcakes and sappy rom-com’s at home or dancing on tables at Cipriani, a playlist was needed.  I found it much easier than expected to compile a list of songs that will have love as the furthest thing from your mind.
