From an unmarked box at a Southern California estate sale these candid photographs of the Rolling Stones emerged. The photographer remains unknown, but I like to imagine some exceptional groupie took these pictures. They were recently shown at the Dilettante in Los Angeles.

I ♥ NY
New York City will always hold a special place in my heart. I was long over due for a visit so Natasha Khan (Bat For Lashes) and I planned a ladies adventure to the city. We filled our days with shopping, amazing restaurants, neon signs, and all the beauty the city had to offer. I even managed to see my parents who were also visiting. Below is a photo diary I took with my iphone.

The things I miss most about the concrete jungle are the endless hours of exploration I used to do on foot. Even surrounded by thousands of people, I felt that my experience was personal and unique. I'm grateful for the time I spent living in the East Village, probably in one of the last rent controlled apartments! Here are some great New York moments of the past. See you next week old friend!

✷ Sun Medallion ✷
Sun Medallion is a song that Kyle Thomas dreamt of. Working at a hospice clothing store years ago, the actual sun medallion fell into his hands and he felt its power! It was filmed in his hometown of Brattleboro, Vermont by friend and director Mike Wartella. Sun Medallion is a reissue from his 2008 debut "Was Dead." I love a song inspired by a thrift score!
