Daydream lily.

April 25, 2010 – 12:22 pm

I just love it when I find a blog that gets me hooked from the first second I lay my eyes on it. This one is called Daydream Lily. It is packed with beautiful pictures. The topics are art, photography, fashion and handmade things, just all the things that inspire her.
She doesn’t take the pictures [...]

2 Years Of Neon Enlightenment

April 23, 2010 – 3:44 pm

Dear readers,

for the first part of yesterday I had completely forgotten that we were turning 2 but I soon realised we did. And boy, it could not have been celebrated better.
1. Completely unprepared and last-minute we interviewed Darwin (from Darwin Deez, obviously) before his gig – we talked about Dawson’s Creek, anti-Hanson chatrooms & sexuality [...]

Eyes Shut Blink: Owen Gatley

April 22, 2010 – 1:05 pm

Seems to me like Bristol’s absolutely packed with talent. Not only does longtime Neon Enlightenment favourite Jack Hudson live there, the same goes for Owen Gatley. In August 2009 he sent us an email requesting to take a look at an animation he did on evolution. Look:

Fast forward several months and Owen Gatley has just [...]

April’s perfect look.

April 18, 2010 – 4:12 pm

Wow, I can go out barelegged today. Spring is definitely here and I like it!

The look I’ve chosen resembles the items that I wear most of the time. Yes, I’m a girl, but menwear inspires me so much. Just take a blouse (you can choose a girly one if you are a girl), a [...]

“Us and the aliens”

April 14, 2010 – 7:46 pm

As you might have guessed, I have a bit of a weak spot for We Have Band. First brought to my attention more than a year ago, it was love at first sight. I then saw them perform at Les Ardentes and their star has since been rising and rising. They just brought out WHB, [...]

April 11, 2010 – 12:17 pm

Once again I was looking through endless pages of Lookbook outfits, when suddenly I was struck by this amazing picture/outfit:

So immediately I became a fan and went to see if she had a blog, and yes, she has! Go here and be amazed.
She’s from Los Angeles, 18 yrs old and into mystics, magic, dreams and [...]

Strange Boys + Fool’s Gold at Domino

April 11, 2010 – 12:13 am

Domino Festival takes place every year at the AB and always has a really eclectic program. There’s one feature that ties all the acts together though: innovation.
On the bill tonight are Strange Boys, Fool’s Gold and Rain Machine ft. Kyp Malone (of TV On The Radio fame). I only went for the first two though. [...]

The 12th of April will be a good day

April 8, 2010 – 10:52 pm

Because, dear readers, there are 3 lovely things you should be aware of.
1. Darwin Deez’s self-titled album is out on Lucky Number Music! A quirky, fun pop gem, do have a listen and order your copy here!

2. Remember Planet Earth? I talked about them a while ago when they gave out that Valentine’s ep and [...]

Eyes Shut Blink: Marcello Velho

April 6, 2010 – 3:49 pm

Back in July we got an email from Marcello Velho (also known as Gaspar Lepage, his artist name) asking us to check out his artwork. I gladly did and really liked it. However, it got pushed forward a bit cause other things had to be posted first and before we knew it, it was September [...]

April 4, 2010 – 1:06 pm

I stumbled upon this blog a couple of weeks ago. It is not your normal fashion blog, like I usually post, but this one is worth the exception. It is filled with pretty (very pretty!) pictures, which offer enough to inspire you.
Other posts on the blog consist of youtube clips (the Smiths, the Sonics, [...]
