The Dreary Days of Winter

Which sounds an awful lot like Hazy Shade of Winter

 
 

Mixed-Tape Must-Have

Y’all can keep your Walk Like an Egyptian.

Hazy Shade of Winter is the BEST Bangles song. Even if it’s a cover.

But it’s an amazing cover. Dare I say it’s better than the original?

Sorry Simon & Garfunkel.

For reference, here’s the original, Simon & Garfunkel Hazy Shade of Winter. It’s very Simon & Garfunkely.

I think that Simon & Garfunkely is my new fave adverb! No all I have to do is look for opportunities to use it.


Dreary Winter Quote

I understand the sentiment, but I’m pretty sure even deliriously happy people notice snow and freezing temperatures.

Palette

A GIF that keeps on GIFing

Why yes! Yes, it is!


Jaunty German Fashions

Deutsche Moden-Zeitung No. 7 Vol. 44; January 1935

The January 1935 edition of Deutsche Moden-Zeitung No. 7 Vol. 44’s message is clear: Perk up your January with a new frock!

WTHeck is going on with these clothes?? I was so confused by the folksy / costume / day-at-the-beach fashions here that I had to look up what was happening in Germany in January 1935.

That’s when I realized that fashion magazines could be propaganda, too!
