Sara Schiralli

I love Weeds! So far, season 5 has not been a disappointment…to me. At the end of this week’s episode, “Van Nuys,” there was a great song being played. I HAD to figure out who it was.

Mystery solved:
The song is “Bang Bang” by Sara Schiralli.

Schiralli’s album “Bang Bang” was released in December of 2008. It can be purchased via Itunes for only $9.99.

It’s On with Alexa Chung

Alexa Chung’s new show on MTV, It’s On with Alexa Chung, has been on air since June 15th. It’s very interactive and if you ask me, involves too much Facebook and Twitter. Still, the choice in guests, musical and not, has been fun- Bradley Cooper and Michael Cera were personal favorites.

Any way, I try to tune in atleast once during each show to spy what Chung is wearing. As you know from my previous post, Chung has become a sort of fashion muse for me these days.

Let me cut to the chase: Now, thanks to MTV Buzzworthy Blog, I no longer have to watch the show to get a glimpse at what the leggy Brit is wearing! Among many things, the buzzworthy blog posts What Did Alexa Chung Wear Today? entries. Each post breaks down what Alexa Chung was wearing for the episode (shoes and accessories included). Furthermore, the posts include suggestions on how to emulate the outfit without forking out as much money.

If you want to save some time hunting around the blog, you can click here to skim through almost two full pages of Chung’s previous outfits.

I can’t wait for the new album from The Almight Defenders (the supergroup comprised of the Black Lips + King Khan and BBQ). It’s due September 22 from Vice Records.

You can hear a new track titled “Bow Down and Die” from the LP on their MySpazz.
