a discovery playlist featuring weekly top 10 music releases

1. Sabrina Carpenter- Go Go Juice: I still need to give her album a few more listens, but upon my first item through this is a definite standout!

2. The Beaches- I Wore You Better: This whole album is basically wall-to-wall lesbian anthems, and this track might be the best of them. Loud, punchy, and a little messy and I LOVE it.

3. Blood Orange- Vivid Light: Like most of his music, this feels like driving at night with the windows down — dreamy, nostalgic, and so easy to get lost in.

BTW: scroll to the end to see how to get a free cloud carabiner!

1. Lorde unarchived this amazingly iconic IG post.

2. Should’ve been the queen of clubs !

3. Already thinking about halloween. I’ll make sure not a single pumpkin is left behind.

4. My favorite rendition of the art vs the artist.

5. Getting excited for whatever Maria of The Marias is cooking up.

6. DJO at the US Open. I wonder if he went because of Challengers.

7. The church is brat.

8. A Hayley Williams photoshoot is high tech.

9. I’ve been repeating in my head “I would like a riiiing I would like a ring” constantly.

things that i’ve been super into lately that i need to share with you guys

1. Now that fall is coming up, I’m always on the search for the perfect knitwear! One of my favorite small handknit shops is Bloke Knitwear, which makes the cutest colorful knits!!

2. We just got a sneak peak of Clairo’s Carbird collab and they are GORGEOUS. I need this ring and I am obsessed with the all the charms.

3. Bringing back a Carly classic— here’s the perfect playlist for when it’s 3am and you feel like the only person in the world awake.

movies, tv shows, and actors on my radar right now

1. I just saw this new trailer for The History of Sound (the queer movie starring Paul Mescal and Josh O’Connor) and I already know this is going to become one of my new favorites. 

2. I NEED to know who is in charge of music in The Summer I Turned Pretty because they’re doing an insanely good job… emphasis on insane because WHAT was loml doing as the outro of the last episode. Cannot wait (but also scared) to see what they come up with in tomorrow’s show.

3. It’s been two years since Emma Silgiman’s ‘BOTTOMS’ was released and my life has never been the same since.

ALL THINGS MUSIC

1.  “Midnight Sun”- Zara Larsson

   I honestly wonder if there’s something wrong with me the amount of times i’ve watched her sing it live on TikTok. My new dream is to be front row at a Zara Larsson concert where she only sings midnight Sun for 1 hour straight.  

2. “The Subway” - Chappell Roan 

   perfect song obviously 

3. “Good Swimmer”- Carol Ades

   I’m also listening to the hell out of my new song Good Swimmer.  I feel like If I didn’t wanna listen to it myself 100x on repeat, I shouldn’t put it out you know??? That’s my rule.

ALL THINGS INTERNET

1. Can he jump over the water?

2. #justiceforneema

3. Ok this video didn’t make me laugh it made me sob but then I started laughing at myself for how loudly I was sobbing? So I think it counts.

ALL THINGS STYLE

1. I just started renting some clothes from this website because I’ve been wanting to explore with my style a little bit and i’m so obsessed. It has all these smaller designers literally couldn’t recommend it more. 

2. I’m a Pinterest FIEND. These are some of my latest pins, clothing wise, look wise.  I love Pinterest.  I would die for Pinterest. 

3. On a similar note I feel like my environment and interior design taste also really influences my style. I feel like dressing your body and dressing your house can be one in the same - it’s all just feeling and experimenting and following your intuition.  I also like to imagine the outfits I'd wear in my dream home- it’s one of my favorite daydreaming prompts. 

ALL THINGS REEL

1. I can’t stop thinking about this video !!!! Please watch this video !!!!!

2. Lady Bird - this is my everything always movie.

3. I fall asleep to interior design youtube videos and this one was actually so good.

SONG LYRIC OF THE DAY

“I love myself sometimes she hates me”  - Carol Ades (me) (I’m really proud of that one also it’s just so true)

Okay that’s all for me this week ! This was fun :) Hopefully see you at my set at All Things Go September 27th ! It’s such a dream come true to play this festival and i’m so excited to jump around on stage and sing my songs for you <3 Talk soon 

Love, Carol Ades
