    omg. i love super 8 -- the colors / lack of sharpness turn a standard beach visit something otherworldly, almost like some sort of real-life cartoon. she (they?) captured some really beautiful scenery too 
     
    i wonder why she keeps releasing so many random covers. not that i'm complaining obviously, i just wonder if she's still trying to prove herself to the general public. i'm glad though -- now they can see another side to her voice, and absorb more of her creative elements. i would hope that, at this point no one could really still consider her to be 'manufactured' or 'inauthentic'. i can't think of any other "pop" star that would have the animus or the ability to release something as personal and care-free as this. her talent(s) just seem to be effortless... i'm hoping that with all these releases, more people start realizing it too

    i think all 'entertainment' related merchandise is generally priced at a retarded rate. but on top of that, i think her shirts are pricier due to the cost of screening those particular 'all-over' prints. they obviously use up more ink, and require a more precise process to get the actual photographs (as opposed to a simple graphic) across the entire body of the shirt. its a pretty cool idea, not something i've seen from other artists. usually similar photographic prints are done by designers like christopher kane, and can cost upwards of $300

    i understand that they'd essentially want to stamp the image on top of the tee (which wouldn't be difficult, if you were printing something small, like.. psy or an angry bird), but I guess in my head it just seems like more work / quality control. you can't really get a photograph to show up on a tee in photographic quality unless its gonna be printed in extreme detail. i have two shirts like this, and they couldn't even be done on cotton, because the fabric has to be really fine. one is like, silk/rayon and another a bizarre polyester. my point is, this kind of print seems to require more thought (or at the very least -- higher level processing) than your run of the mill graphic tee due to the size of the print and the necessary fabrics. i would hope that these would be printed on good tees at least. i kind of want one. it doesn't say what it's made of, but it says it can't be dry cleaned, so it can't be cotton
     
    these t-shirts make sense to me. i mean, lana herself is kind of a product. but one that required more ... thought, and higher level processing (on all ends -- particularly hers). the lighter and flask though? unnecessary. we get it lana, you're a ~ bad ass bitch ~
     
    i don't know what i would do if someone pulled out a Lana Del Rey lighter and/or flask. cry? laugh? probably fall in love and then feel guilty about it

  11. TrailerParkDarling liked a post in a topic by COLACNT in Why do you love Lana?   
    I've never really been a true fan of like, anyone, I don't think. but I feel a bit of a connection with her, in terms of her visual style, her overall demeanor (awkward, but often misconstrued as bitchy or even worse), and her whole 'world' in general (what with the various shades of narcissism, girlish emotional torment, and daddy-heavy love). My focus in school has always been science, but I feel as if she's allowed me to tap into a more creative side of myself (re: fan art). ultimately, despite the depressive and often fucked up undertones, I think she's made me more optimistic about life, and people in general. no easy feat.

    I decided to go out on a quest to do an entire AKA CD as if I was assigned the project by her label myself, and this was the result! It includes a 32-page booklet, a tray insert, and a CD label.

    Even has an interview I've never heard 
     
    She said of Sinatra's "It was a very good year" - "It's the only cover we do, me and my band, besides an Elvis song." This was after doing Heart-shaped Box so idk what she's talking about lol, maybe recordings?
     
    PS Ednafrau she said if anyone she meets listens to Jeff Buckley, it's how she knows she's found a soul mate.  ^_^

    um, her fashion is fucking sublime. she doesn't always look perfect (which is a good thing) but there are always strange little details, like fabrics you can pet, or slippers you can steal from a lounge -- but it's always very her. it's called personal style, which is something you can't buy off the rack

    Hello guys I've wondered if I could post a video I made for the official instrumentals of Born to Die and Paradise. I've put a lot of effort into it and I'd be happy if you rated me fair and square. I had an old channel I was HaloFSky or Lanas Best Buddy later on but UMG closed my account and I want to begin from scratch. By the way the only section I don't like in my video is Carmen and Video Games but I hope you generally like the idea of Dark Paradise and the continuation of Bel Air. Cheers xoxo

    My 2 cents...
     
    I think the live version of National Anthem is breath taking. I really want a copy of it where there's not someone screaming OH MY GOD LANA I WANT TO FUCK YOU SO MUCH for my collections.
     
    I don't like a lot of the unreleased tracks I don't really like the fluffy sound.
     
    I don't consider the AKA album to be a failed pop effort. I think most of it is very anti-genre. Fuck you hipster runoff!
     
    Body Electric live= Body Electric studio=
     
    I think a lot of the tracks on Paradise seem rather rushed. Some of the bridges are so mechanical
     
    I really prefer Lana's look when her hair was strawberry or auburn colored. The black is just too much.
     
    And I thought Lizzy's platinum look was really unflattering!!!
     
     
    Phew... That felt good.

    Let me get this straight...
    So if Lana has food cravings it's because she's on drugs.
    And if Lana doesn't have f-food cravings it's because she's on drugs.
    Therefore, she's on drugs. #Logic

    I feel sorry for her, the weather here has been so horrible this week   that's pretty much how I looked when going out of the house too, thank god no one took pics of me. 
     
    #toocoldtostalk. The store she went to is in China Town   she can't be too far from there. 
     
    (blue dorritos represent a deep addiction to meth - Heinsenberg style-, coke must mean she's on cocaine!! breaking news!)

    i'm so happy that she's consistently booking legitimately major fashion spreads; large ones at that. what is this, like 7 pages? despite the fact that i hate the new saint laurent, she still manages to make this my favorite:
