Hey, y'all! Today is about that day that I share with you all some of my favorite tunes to listen to. The artists that I have chosen today are Tori Kelly {you may have seen her as my #WCW on Instagram} and Delta Rae (a band). They are some of my favorite listens because of the originality their music portrays, and the uh-mazing vocals. {Seriously. Their voices are like music to my ears.}
I just recently heard about Tori Kelly from my friend, Treasure. We were talking about guys and how we would like to be in relationships, but wouldn't know what the heck to do if we were in one. "Hahahha, so do I, like, hug you?" That's pretty much my thoughts in a nutshell, plus a tad of sarcasm. It's up to you to decide which one I am portraying most of. {Saucy. Harhar.} I digress. Tori's voice is pure bliss listening to! She has talent unlike I've ever heard (well, sometimes, but it's unique!), and it is even more bewildering considering that she writes all of her songs and records them as well....at home. If you do not call that impressive, then I don't know what you think is. On another note, Delta Rae is a band that I discovered last year. The tune that really captured my attention was Bottom of the River. The old vibe of the song is interesting. And imagine the surprise on my face when I found out that a group in my dance class was choreographing to that song. Every time I heard the song, I'd start singing. Hahaha. Oops. Aside from that, Delta Rae has numerous songs are also complete awesomesauce! {Hahahha. I do not even remember where I heard that saying from.}
(Another song from this album that I adore, but Grooveshark does not have on their site is Eyelashes. Seriously do yourself a favor and go check it out! You will not regret it {I promise}.)
[Bonus tunes that I love from her album Foreword - EP]
I have finally reached my millionth earring lost {sad, I know}. With studs being the only type of earring that I wear, with an exception for special occasions, once I lose a pair, I am honestly out of lucky. For one, they are some of the easiest things to lose. I mean very easy. And the last pair of studs that I have lost (well, only one earring; the other one is resting safely on my desk) were the only ones that I have been wearing for a while now. Sure, call me cheap all you want to, but I actually never really care what type of earrings that I wear. It is just not one of those fashion accessories that I pay much mind to {not saying that I can't. I just choose not to}. So just imagine the panic that coursed through my body when I realized I was missing one of my studs. Honestly! It was crazy. One minute I was relaxing on my bed, catching up on the updated books on Wattpad, and the next I was in the bathroom nearly having a panic attack due to the fact that I was only wearing ONE earring. Just one. So, being the type of person that I am {which is one that needs to wear earrings, otherwise feels like a dude}, I postponed taking a shower until I found my earring, walked out of the bathroom, and began to search every crevice of my room, the hallway, and the bathroom. Even retracing my steps (which really did not work out that way) did not help in the very least. And sadly, no. I did not recall my missing earring. And as a reminder to myself about how much of an earring failure I am, I will share with you guys some adorable studs that I have come across. I'd probably get them if I were not such an "earring-losing-jerk." So, yeah, I'll sit here (in my desk chair) and allow these indescribable earrings taunt me from behind my screen, while you all are probably buying them right now {yeah, have fun with that, meanie!}.

1. These Square Rhinestone Stud Earrings, $6.24 *SOLD OUT*I love these black, diamond, and metal earrings. They are flexible enough in style to be dressed up or down, and perfect to be adorn with any outfit.
2. These Clover Stud Earrings (Matted Gold), $13.00 *FREE SHIPPING* I adore these clover shaped earrings. They are not only adorable and feminine, they can be worn with pretty much anything {especially those gold accessorized looks of today}.
3. These Ceramic Pyramid Stud Earrings, $26.98 Every gal needs a good 'ole pair of stud earrings. I actually have a few pairs of these, but I only have one earring of each pair {told you I lose all of my studs!}. Being black, these are sure to match with however many outfits, whether it's black, yellow, red, blue, green, brown. It is all up to you.
4. These Starfish Studs, $65.00 *ON SALE* There is no legitimate reason as to why I would not want these beautiful studs. With it being the Summer season, what is a better accessory than one reminiscing the sea? Besides, I love that these are gold {once again meeting the gold accessory trend of the now}.
5. These Stainless Steel Polished Stud Earrings,$11.99 *SOLD OUT* Stainless silver accessories are something that I must have. These types of studs I can just throw on without a thought, and just roll with the flow. I enjoy these types with more casual wear, but feel free to throw them on while in a rush out of the door when you're late for a meeting. I dare you. It's fitting, simple, and cute. Sometimes simplicity is the way to go!
6. These Gothic Punk Rock Spike Rivet Red Heart Stud Earring, $7.28 *ON SALE*Nothing is more lovely to me than something with spikes. It screams total "rebel" and "bad ass" to me. Okay, maybe not the whole "bad ass" persona, but a rebel will do. I have been infatuated - nope, in love - with spikes way before they became a hot trend. They are so punk, amazing, and just beyond sexy. {Yes, I did just call spikes sexy. Get over it, wontcha'. ;)} Oh, and the feminine addition of a heart makes up for my wannabe "bad ass" thought about these bad boys (or gals, whatever).
7. These Diamond Palm Tree Stud Earrings, $745.00 Although mighty expensive, these tropical studs are the perfect addition to a Summer getup. Forget that, though, I just want these, and yeah, I'll rock them during the Winter, too. {Call me Mrs. Rebellll!}
8. These Map Studs, Unknown Price With my love for travel and adventure being a very prominent part of my life, I think these lovely studs would be perfect for my style. They are adorable, trendy, unique, and very amazing. Unlucky for us, these were being sold on eBay and are no longer available. But thisis a similar pair, as is this.
9. These Anchor Stud Earrings, $14.00 I find these lovely blue shaded studs to be an adorable pair of earrings! For a girl who loves the sea (or sailing), these would be perfect. But curse my limitation! These studs are just amazing and I want want want! Honestly, I have no clue as to why I am so drawn to this set of earrings, but I am glad that I am. Hm, future purchase anyone? *Cha-CHING!*
Song Choice: 'Bottom of the River' by Delta Rae. As a 2012 single, this song has won my heart over by the lovely voice of Brittany Holljes (the 2nd gal in the band who is the leading vocals in this song), and the amazing beats caused by non-instruments. Although not all of this band's music is my taste, some of their songs I find very amazing and I love, love, love! Give it a listen if you haven't. Trust me, when I first heard it during dance practice, then when I got home and turned on Music Choice, I was entranced. You better not tell me that you're not. (Oh, the music video is slightly creepy, so beware. :))
