This week I have gone with a theme: GIRL POWER. I've always seemed to be more into bands with female singers, or all female for that matter. SO THIS WEEK GOES OUT TO ALL THE GIRLS IN THE WORLD, enjoy!
1. Fancy- Iggy Azalea ft. Charlie XCX
Iggy Azalea is someone I was actually following on Instagram and had no idea she was a singer. When I saw Charlie XCX post about the video on Insta, I checked it out and fell in love. SO CATCHY. And the video....everything about this homage to Clueless is a 90's girl's dream come back to life.
2. Say You'll Be There- MØ
FIRST OF ALL why has there not already been a cover to any Spice Girls songs? I mean really, they are all amazing songs. So I was VERY excited when I discovered this cover by MØ. I love her style, especially when it comes to her fashion choices. Definitely someone to keep your eye on.
3. If I Could Change You're Mind- HAIM
The Haim sisters are a perfect mix of  LA and soft rock. This is one of those you-can't-sit-still-because-it's-so-groovy songs. Perfect for this warmer weather we are beginning to have. These girls have gotten pretty big over the past year, and I can't wait to see what they will do next!
4. Elephant-Warpaint
Ahhhh,Warpaint. We go pretty far back. This is a band that one of my best friends Eric and I have been listening to together since our freshman year of college. Needless to say, they have only gotten better throughout the years. This song is so hauntingly intriguing that you can't just listen to it once. An all girl band that is worth looking into.
5. Put Your Curse On Me- Stonefield
I stumbled upon this band today, and the first thing I thought was, "Wow, this sounds like something my dad would actually like" (I already posted this video to his facebook wall). With that being said, I LOVE THIS. It's always good to see that good girl bands still exist, but good rock&roll from a girl band? Now that's hard to come by. I will for sure be looking more into this band.

BONUS!!!!!
6. Hand In My Pocket-Alanis Morissette
There can not ever be a collection of girl power songs without Alanis involved. This song is and always will be in my top 10 favorite songs ever. This song is an anthem for twenty-somethings everywhere to this day. And it always will be. And should be!

Now go get in your car, put the windows down, blast these songs, and enjoy!

Spring break has finally begun! I seriously never thought this break would come and I could not be any happier. Bo and I are heading down to Fort Walton Beach, as I previously mentioned, and we are beyond excited! This has been a rough semester mentally, physically, and emotionally, so some time on the beach can definitely heal our higher education wounds! With that being said, I have put together a POLYVORE collection of what I personally consider to be essentials! 
Spring Break Essentials

                            Also,you can check out my POLYVORE profile HERE !  

This year was the first time in about 4 years that I have bought a two piece bathing suit, because thankfully the high waisted trend works on my figure. I'm very excited to show it off on the beach next week! I'm also obsessed with the colored mirror lens sunglasses trend. The ones above are from Forever 21, and I also have them in black. Chapstick and sunscreen are a must! EOS is by far my favorite chapstick brand, and because they are so oddly shaped they are easy to find when you are fumbling through your purse or beach bag! Also, I love spray on sunscreen. It is so much easier to apply than the sunscreen lotion (which is literally one of my least favorite things in the world to be honest) and I like to get the Sport version so sweat isn't much of a problem.

But what would "SB2K14" be without a good playlist? Something to blast while you are driving on the interstate, with windows down of course, on the way to your destination. Well fear not, for I have put on together for you! It is guaranteed to put a smile on your face :)



I hope everyone enjoyed this post, and  if you are also on spring break then make it a great one! My boyfriend Bo and I will be filming and documenting our trip, so hopefully we will have that coming for you all soon! Now I gotta go pack our suitcases!
