    I think my rarest piece of merchandise is the Born to Die serpent flask! I saw one go on eBay for $600 the other day and hadn't even seen it listed anywhere in ages. Additionally, I own pieces that are less hard to come by but still pricey on resale such as the Paradise boxset, heart-shaped coke rosary, & Zippo lighter. I'm so glad I was able to get all of those while they were still being sold for their initial price.
    I also have three of her first magazine covers - Wonderland, Lovecat, and Intro! (I actually own every single magazine she's ever covered with a unique photoshoot for the cover, and also probably double that in magazines that have covered her with recycled photoshoots)
    Then, of course, my plethora of vintage dresses she's worn... I would say probably out of all of them, her Coachella dress is probably the rarest vintage piece I've found. I've been searching for it since the day she wore it and I finally found the exact dress for sale the other week. I had known of the brand for a few years, but the exact style & print combo was a waiting game x

    It was during such a sad time in my life. It was November 2015, i was 17 years old and i just quit college and i had no idea what to do with my life. The weather was cold, my family were dissapointed in me, my friends gave me the side eye and i just felt so miserable. During this period i started using spotify to expand my musical taste. I started listening to a lot of new albums, and one day i stumbled apon a singer called The Weeknd. I thought his album cover was really creepy and he kind of quenched my thirst for wanting darker music, it was something i'd always been really into but i just didnt know many singers that were a little more depressing, bare in mind i was still young.
    So anyway, i came across Prisoner featuring Lana Del Rey and her verse gave me so many goosebumps. I knew who she was briefly and that she sung video games and born to die(those songs came out when i was a lot younger so i naturally brushed them off but i still respected her a lot), but i'd never really gave her music a chance. So anyway i decided to look on her page and thats when i found Honeymoon. I listened, thought honeymoon was boring and repeptitive, MTWBT sounded okay but i was dissapointed so i thought "fuck that"
     
    Anyway funnily enough about 4 or 5 days later i had the MTWBT chorus stuck in my head and it was the "sent to destory" part that kept repeating in my brain, and i finally thought okay ill give this bitch one more go and try to listen to more songs, and the rest is history. I eventually fell madly in love with the album. Then i moved on to BTD and Paradise, and then UV. I ordered all of her CDs for christmas and i forced myself to not listen to a single one of her songs again until i receieved the CDs on christmas. It was probably one of the most exciting Christmasses and pre christmasses ive ever had. And it was so rewarding discovering all her music. It definitely took the edge off my miserable days, so i thank her so much for that and still do.
     
    Always and forever miss del rey xo

    So, yesterday was my 8 year anniversary of the day I first discovered Lana. I thought it would be fun to share my story of how I discovered Lana, & I'd love to hear how you all discovered her as well!
     
    On January 29th, 2012 I made the innocent gesture of complimenting my friend's makeup, having no idea it would change my life forever.
    She told me her makeup was inspired by the singer Lana Del Rey, and I told her I didn't know who that was. She played me a small clip of 'Video Games' and it was enough to leave me interested to know more.
    Later that day, I typed "Lana Del Rey" into the YouTube search bar, not really knowing what to expect. Upon hearing the name "Lana Del Rey" and hearing her dark, narcotic voice from the short bit of 'Video Games', I honestly assumed I'd be stumbling upon a hispanic woman in her late 30s, early 40s.
    The first result was the Born to Die music video, and I was stunned. At first I was so shocked to see this young, white, strawberry-blonde woman sitting on a throne surrounded by tigers, singing so deeply yet so beautifully. I kept watching the video, and became just so hypnotised by the beauty of the video, the song, and the singer herself. I had the video on replay for the rest of the night. I even had it going while I was removing my makeup & washing my face at the end of the night. I was so lured in. It was instant.
    I, of course, immediately downloaded 'Born to Die' and 'Video Games', and downloaded the album on iTunes the next day. I also remember 2 months later watching American Idol with a friend and Ryan Seacrest announced that Lana was going to do a performance of 'Video Games' - I excitedly called over my friend who was getting snacks in the kitchen to come sit down and watch the performance with me, and I was telling her about how Lana was a new artist I was getting into and really loved.
    So, I always say 'Born to Die' is the song that truly introduced me to Lana, and started my now 8 year journey as a fan.
     
    This next part is how I stumbled upon her unreleased music and got myself even further down the rabbit hole - 
    I listened to the Born to Die record throughout the next several months, and then the day of the Paradise release on November 9th, 2012 came. I remember going to Grooveshark (does anyone remember that now-defunct streaming service?) to stream the new EP. This ended up being quite a silly memorable moment as I was with some friends helping set up for a movie night and had the aux cord, and of course this being my first listen of the new EP, I was very embarrassed upon "my pussy tastes like Pepsi Cola" blasting through the speakers of the room, catching some confused stares from all my friends lol. Nevertheless, once the EP finished streaming, I saw a few other songs I didn't recognise from either record, so I added those to the queue. I especially fell in love with this song 'Kinda Outta Luck,' so later that evening I typed the song into iTunes assuming it was a non-album single, and was puzzled when nothing came up. At this point, I didn't really know that unreleased music was a "thing." So I took to google, and it was then that I discovered the plethora of unreleased songs in an LDR megapost. I couldn't believe it. It was like finding buried treasure. I also discovered her whole past as Lizzy Grant, which made things even more intriguing. It was in that moment I sort of converted from fan to full on stan. Lana was all I listened to for months - absolutely nothing else. All my other artists I loved took a backseat. I was constantly watching interviews, live performances, reading up on her - I was so mesmerised. I can't quite explain the feeling I had then, and still have, of just this extreme amount of interest and fascination with someone. Upon getting to know more of her story through the interviews I was watching & reading and through the lyrics of her hundreds of songs, I related to her so much. I felt so understood, like I finally found this sort of soundtrack to my entire life. & 8 years later, I'm still riding that stan train hard.
     
    I never would have thought that simply asking my friend about her makeup one day would lead to all of this - owning a whole fansite, my insane magazine/dress/merch collection, traveling the world for 15 shows, meeting amazing friends through her & even being able to meet Lana herself and thank her for all that she's done for me - it's just unreal. I always wonder what would have happened if I never discovered Lana that day back in January of 2012. I'm sure I would have stumbled upon her somehow, but would I have ever dove deeper into her music and became such the huge fan that I am today that's led me to have so many wonderful and important life experiences? It's always surprising to me when I reflect back on the smallest of gestures that have changed my entire world. This was definitely one of them. & one of the biggest ones at that.

    At the moment ALL world governments are trying to keep a positive view on this matter. They are also colaborating with each other in
    hopes to contain as much as possible this new deadly virus.
    One thing is for sure, the Chinese government are not telling the whole truth to outsiders, so as to not scare people into a worldwide panic.
    But the fact is the death toll is much higher than is being said and ALOT more people have been infected.
     
    With todays global traveling by jet airlines more and more people are spreading the virus.  - All it needs is one person on the airplane with the virus
    sitting in their seat for more than 3+ hours to infect the rest of the passengers (and crew). Airplanes re-circulate the air inside and are pressurized, which means
    if you got one person with a virus,  alot more inside those airplanes will be carrying it too.
     
    Some people are more immune than others to these things, but this new virus has so far killed 80+ people and is spreading worldwide. The Death toll is rising and
    no cure has been found yet.
    This whole thing kind of sounds like that film "World War Z", but do NOT WORRY that people will be turning into zombies.
    There are no zombies in this matter.
     
    This is a deadly virus which kills by destroying your immune system and respiratory system (Lungs etc.).
     
    CHECK often your local news broadcasts and/or radio.
    Look at this website - https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/summary.html
    If you know of someone infected - contact your local police and hospital as soon as possible. This is serious !
     
     
    One good thought to think about is  that we have specialized people that deal with these sorts of virus and they may find the cure - or
    at least "something" that will give a little comfort to those which have already been infected.
     
    Be safe , and live safe 
    and DON´T PANIC ! ( not yet)
