NOBODY RIDES FOR FREE

(Photos by: TR)

There have been several swells rolling in and I finally got my fair share of good rides in the last couple days. It was a fun morning swell this morning.. board swapping and nose riding included. Last night I saw the most beautiful sunset while I was sliding on glass with friends. I couldn’t believe how blessed I was to experience it. The sky was illuminated in red and the sun was blood orange. It made the entire ocean glow like smooth, orange glass. I have to take a deep breath just thinking about it.

I’m not quite surfed out yet but getting there. I’d actually like to spend an entire day at the beach surfing, resting, surfing, resting, and surfing again. I cannot remember the last time I did something like that. Life happens some times and you gotta pay your dues. But those couple of hours on the water make it all worth it. You gotta work hard to slide hard. Hahaha!

Work than slide ’cause nobody rides for free!

TAKEN BY THE WIND


(Photos from: here)

I am a huge fan of Sugarhigh + Lovestoned. This little photo shoot collaboration makes me an even huger fan. The photos are amazing, amazing, amazing! And the wardrobe. And the setting. Incredibly inspiring work. I want to go run in an open field topless now.

These girls are in their element. When you see what they’re doing and where they’re going with SH+LS you can tell it’s not phony or contrived. It’s the real deal. They’re whole brand and image is exactly like the life they live. A glass bottle full of coolness [preferably Jack Daniels.] It’s hard to find that kind of ingenuity nowadays. You know? You always get these people who are trying to portray a lifestyle or way of life because it is the hip thing to do. But not these girls. I have a deep appreciate for people like Tami and Chloe. They are themselves and rock out hard. And they are so freakin’ talented! Have you seen they’re t-shirts?? Gems.

Anyway. I have always been attracted to that rough and rowdy, rock’n'roll, carefree lifestyle. The creativity and lifestyle that SH+LS exudes totally makes me want to live like that. Even though I am obviously not the best candidate [due to my lack of raw coolness] I’m not that Led Zeppelin, swim topless in a lake with 15 other men and women, own it at Burning Man kinda girl. But I wish I was. SH+LS makes any girl feel like she could be that cool though.

Thanks SH+LS for letting me live vicariously through you. I’m taken by the wind!

SUGARHIGH + LOVESTONED | DESERT ROSE


(Photos from: here)

The girls behind Sugarhigh + Lovestoned have got to be the raddest hippie livin’, rubber-trampin’, Hawaii surfin’, art-driven girls out there. They got some talent let me tell you. If you ever want to see what it is like to build a company from the ground up and maintain one of the strongest concepts that oozes personal style (and lifestyle) you have to check them out. Yeah, I said that all in one breath. Woo.

 All their clothing and styling makes me want to channel my inner Pennylane and travel around the USA being a bandaid (NOT a groupie, kayyyy? There’s a difference.) And go dance naked in the desert. And buy a pair of real riding boots. And go on ebay to look for a cool mexican blanket. Anyway, you can check out their shop here and start building your wardrobe for your next road trip or music festival.

Definitely getting my studs and leather on for my next music fest!
