One thing you might not know about me (and likely don’t need to know but I’m sharing it anyway) is that music is one of the driving passions of my life. One of my favourite periods of my long, decrepit life was the last couple years of university when I began to cover music, interviewing incredible musicians from Hawksley Workman to Bedouin Soundclash to most recently Sky Ferreira. Oh, and years ago I also got 100% in a rock history course…no big deal. In all honesty, I think the teacher mostly took a liking to me because we shared the same weird obsession with Marc Bolan (fave T.Rex song right here). I also really gave it my all in the round circle singalongs that would cap off some of our classes. Like blue-in-the-face giving it my all.
Anyway, this obsessive quality that I pour into music tends to manifest itself in bizarre weeks-long streaks of repeatedly playing the same song over and over and over again. I’m a real loyalist with most things in life but particularly with music (my favourite bands/artists have been the same virtually my whole life), so when I like something, I really like it and commit to it full-stop. Currently, I’ve been obsessed with “I Summon You” by Spoon – I’ve literally played it over 100 times in the past few weeks. It’s getting weird! This outfit is some sort of interpretation of it – I’m not exactly sure why or how it is, but something about the sharpness of these stunning silver Call it Spring heels in contrast with the femininity of the skirt reminded me of the song.
Any song you have on repeat these days?
Could not be any more obsessed with this skirt! It looks amazing on you 🙂

I can't get enough of the new Miles Kane album "Don't Forget Who You Are", so good.
Great outfit, I saw that shirt and was thinking of getting it and you have inspired me to head to Joe Fresh and pick one up!

This is such an awesome outfit, Alex! I have been in love with that skirt for ages, and I think you totally succeeded at making the neon shine through! Speaking of shine, though – those shoes! I have been contemplating order them because they are such a ridiculously good price but I didn't know if I'd be able to handle the 4.5" heel – are they treacherous? I'm at my best at a 3.75". 😉 I should go to our local store to see if they have them in stock. They look SUPER cute in photos! I managed a whole giant paragraph without evening mentioning the music. I am the same – I obsess over songs until I pretty much ruin them, but like you, my favorites have been my favorites forever.
This skirt! It's practically glow in the dark. Love it.
I've been listening to a lot of the old Tegan and Sara. Living Room is one of my faves.

Gorgeous look Alex! I think you're able to pull of neon like no other because you have the perfect skin tone for it.
It's funny, I'm not the biggest music person in the world, but when I like something, I put it on repeat like you. I've been obsessed with the new Daft Punk album and have been listing to the song "Instant Crush" so much it's pathetic. Haha, so I get you on that point!

Hahah – I thought I was the only one who obsessively replayed songs. Currently? Bruno Mars – Treasure + Lana Del Rey – Young + Beautiful!
Love, love , love this look Alexandra! Ah, I could have any pump in any color. Actually been looking for metallic pump for long time. I've yesterday morning had on repeat Mariah Carey ft. Miguel -Beautiful. It reminds me of 90's hits and summer 🙂

I get super obsessed with songs like that too, or certain albums that I'll just listen to over and over and over. So jealous you got to interview Hawksley, love him.
This skirt is sooo awesome, love how bright it is and those metallic heels are so great

Love it this look.. kisses!!
OMG your skirt is so bright! I freaking love it! I love music too, though clearly not as much as you, and can also listen to a song seemingly a million times before I get tired of it.

the new lighter colour you have in your hair looks really pretty! and i can be the same way about a song, playing it over and over for weeks at a time. no current obsessions though!
