Here comes Peter Cottontail

Hopping down the bunny trail

Hippity-hoppity, Easter's on its way

Bringing every girl and boy

Baskets full of Easter joy

Things to make your Easter bright and gay

He's got jellybeans for Tommy

Colored eggs for sister Sue

There's an orchid for your mommy

And an Easter bonnet, too

Oh, here comes Peter Cottontail

Hopping down the bunny trail

Hippity-hoppity, Happy Easter day

Here comes Peter Cottontail

Hopping down the bunny trail

Look at him stop and listen to him say

Try to do the things you should

Maybe if you're extra good

He'll roll lots of Easter eggs your way

You'll wake up on Easter morning

And you'll know that he was there

When you find those chocolate bunnies

That he's hiding everywhere

Oh, here comes Peter Cottontail

Hopping down the bunny trail

Hippity-hoppity, Happy Easter day

PAC: Characteristics of your FS

This is for or all the people with intention to marry or have a long term relationship. Next up will be a soulmate characteristic PAC. I decided to split it in two to get more details!

Now onto the PAC!

Here are the piles!

Pile 1

Pile 2

Pile 3

Pile 4

Ready? Let's go!

Pile 1

This person is a rebel. Might be a bit hypocritical about it. Like they might come from money but decide to live out their best broke musician dreams while still living in their rich dad's apartment that he bought for them. That's just one case example, take it as it resonates.

This person loves to keep appearances, they love to be in control of how people perceive them. I'm seeing they want to be taken seriously.

Long, messy, brown, curly hair. Middle part is possible.

North America, Australia, Oceania, Hawaii, UK.

Dainty eyes?, Blue eyes, light eyes.

Not too defined features but also not ugly. Might be what people call "medium ugly" for some of you. Nothing too shocking about their features.

Musician, plays guitar, indie music taste, 420 friendly? Nirvana (the band), big social life, plaid shirts, leather jackets, bad boy persona, baddie aesthetic, motorbike, cigarette, old school lover, 70s aesthetic and fashion.

Pile 2

This person is very much hypocritical, they don't know what they want in life. Very much lost with their career and family life. You might help guide them.

They definitely have unconventional dreams like opening up a tea shop, or flower shop. Which is fine, but I'm seeing they want to do that for the wrong reasons. Very easily manipulated person, it'll be frustrating for you to see. But they'll get better with your help probably.

Probably from any capitalist country. Take that as you will.

Light eyes or medium eyes but not dark. Downturned eyes.

Short hair, pixie cut, wolf cut.

Wears bandanas, baggy clothes, long skirts, hippie style, boho aesthetic, activist. Necklaces and bracelets, lots of jewelery in general.

(sorry it's a bit short, your person wasn't too specific with the looks but rather with the personality)

Pile 3

You guys got yourselves a romantic, old school, kinda person. They probably listen to music from the 50s and 60s and jazz, lots of jazz. Might love to take things slow and smooth. Doesn't like running late to things and is always calm and early. Very collected person, never a hair out of place. Always is composed. They might have been different before they met you. They probably were chaotic and funny before they met you but something happened that made them this sophisticated, chic person. You might need to bring the fun in them back, I'm hearing. Might be a judgy individual.

Latinx, Hispanic, Southern Europe, North America (East Coast)

Brown eyes, very deep set eyes, intense gaze

Short hair, very short for men, curly hair, either Brown or dirty blonde.

Long eyelashes, very pretty features. Either small nose or large nose, no in between; defined face, high cheekbones.

Medium height, slightly muscular.

60s, 50s music and fashion, coffee and tea lover, might be a cook or love to do it, kitchen lover, architecture fanatic, probably loves house decor and renovation, secretive, mysterious, romantic, candle collector.

Pile 4

(idk i swear this is not Hozier themed, there's just something about him present here)

"imagine being loved by me"

This persoooon omg. So pure hearted. Truly has the best intentions at heart. They literally are sunshine personified. They radiate light, like their smile lights up a room and they always look clean and cheerful. The type of person everyone likes. No one ever dares say anything negative about them and if they do, it's because of jealousy.

They might have a lot of pretty privilege that makes this effect happen. Like if this person was a 6/10 (conventional attractiveness scale) their personality wouldn't be as appreciated. But because they're so beautiful inside and out, it shines through. I'm getting they realize this privilege and it rubs them the wrong way sometimes but they won't fight against it because it's helping them with their goals.

North America, Sweden, Finland, etc, Northern Europe and UK.

Blonde hair, short hair, curly hair, honey hair.

blue eyes, light eyes, almond shaped eyes

Bunny pretty (that one TikTok trend ifykyk), slim, short, cherubin look (if you don't know what that is, think cupid angel type of beauty), white clothes, flowy dresses, short eyelashes, defined jawline, big smile, straight teeth, bunny teeth, cardigans.

Hope it resonates for all of you!!! 💕

Along with the cans of macaroons, jelly rings and coconut marshmallows, every Passover supermarket display includes bags of Joyva sesame candy. It’s not terrible, but nothing compares to the deliciousness of homemade sesame brittle. 

Our Moroccan and Iraqi mothers and grandmothers always made batches of their own sesame brittle for Jewish holidays, hennas (a traditional Sephardic pre-wedding celebration), bris ceremonies and mimouna (a traditional North African celebration to mark the end of Passover).

The combination of toasted sesame seeds and honey originated with the Ancient Greeks, then spread throughout the Middle East and Southern Europe. In Greece and Cyprus, it’s called “pasteli;” in Arabic “haloua de jijlan;” in Spanish “aljalwas de ajonjoli;” in Italian “giuggiulena;” and “croquent de sesames” in French.

Sesame brittle is still very popular throughout the Middle East, Italy and Spain. European bakers consider it chic to decorate wedding cakes and cream puff towers with thin strips of sesame toffee. And while peanut brittle reigns supreme in the U.S., sesame brittle is growing in popularity  — not that it ever went out of style in our homes.

Rachel’s Spanish Moroccan family calls sesame brittle “halwa.” As a little girl, she recalls her mother, Rica, making it for all their family celebrations, served with a glass of fresh mint (nana) tea. Nowadays, her husband and cousins are so excited when she makes it. Sharon’s grandmother called sesame brittle “sim`isiyi,” and always had a tin of it on hand. She would serve it to her guests on long Shabbat afternoons with fresh fruit and a small glass of cardamom tea.  

The texture of this joyous, nostalgic dessert can vary from chewy to extra crispy, and the recipe may include roasted almonds. Vegan and gluten-free, it’s the perfect quick treat to add to your repertoire, coming together in 30 minutes.

Notes: 

When making sesame brittle, make sure to lay out all the utensils and have the ingredients pre-measured. Working with hot sugar means having to work quickly, before it has a chance to harden. 

The tricky part is to roll the brittle thin. We recommend using a stone countertop or a Silpat non-stick mat on the bottom and another on top of the syrup. Place the rolling pin on top of the mat, to ensure that it doesn’t stick.

Store in a tin or glass container with a tight lid for 4-6 weeks.

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀the official sugar honey iced tea tour lookbook

⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀© 𝑝𝑜𝑤𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑑 𝑏𝑦 𝐆𝐀𝐋𝐎𝐑𝐄.

rising rap star 𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐂𝐄 served countless memorable looks on her first headlining tour this fall! styled by the infamous 𝑛𝑎𝑣𝑦 𝑟𝑜𝑒, the artist's looks range from custom to archival — with a signature style that reflected the feel of the tour and showcased her personality and southern upbringing in a fun, vibrant way.

an undeniable and overarching theme of the 𝐒.𝐇.𝐈.𝐓. 𝑡𝑜𝑢𝑟 ensembles is that they take us to the countryside of the dirty south, where hunting culture influences fashion. animal; print, fur, skin... the rapper sported different textures and fabrics across the 22-night tour embodying her deeply planted 𝓖𝑒𝑜𝑟𝑔𝑖𝑎𝑛 roots.

fur coats from 𝑠𝑒𝑘𝑠 at her toronto show, 𝑘𝑖𝑚 𝑠ℎ𝑢𝑖 faux fur adorning her arms in connecticut, and even got her hands on some exclusive threads from 𝑠𝑝5𝑑𝑒𝑟 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑙𝑑𝑤𝑖𝑑𝑒 with a cow print jacket in arizona.

her houston crowd saw her serve the look she coins 'country Cruella', featuring a custom body length printed trench coat from 𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐂𝐄 𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑖𝑚 and matching vail bra. not to mention the 𝑫𝒊𝒐𝒓 cowboy boots to top off the outfit's western vibe.

revice wasn't the only custom denim that made an appearance on the sold out tour — it seems the 𝐴-𝑡𝑜𝑤𝑛 native can't get enough of a jean look. vintage 𝐴𝑝𝑝𝑙𝑒 𝐵𝑜𝑡𝑡𝑜𝑚𝑠 and a full body custom from 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒆𝒕 𝑯𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒕𝒉𝒓𝒐𝒃 are but a few of her delicious denim collection; her custom belted jeans from @/trendyguy.inc on ig have gone viral twice since their debut at the los angeles date!

one thing each of 𝑆𝑝𝑖𝑐𝑒'𝑠 carefully chosen tour costumes has in common is they're all fitted. her lyric '𝑠𝑢𝑝𝑒𝑟 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑐𝑘, 𝑔𝑜𝑡𝑡𝑎 𝑡𝑎𝑖𝑙𝑜𝑟 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑚𝑦 𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑖𝑚' rings true as each custom made piece hugs her curves and hides almost nothing from the audience. what better way to show off her hourglass figure than with leather ﹠ latex.

the rapstress wowed her halloween crowd in brooklyn with a latex 𝑃𝑙𝑎𝑦𝑏𝑜𝑦 𝐵𝑢𝑛𝑛𝑦 costume custom made by 𝑔𝑎𝑟𝑜 𝑠𝑝𝑎𝑟𝑜 — paired with chic 𝒃𝑜𝑡𝑡𝑒𝑔𝑎 𝑣𝑒𝑛𝑒𝑡𝑎 knee highs as she rapped across the stage. but she let it all hang out in ohio, and it paid off. the mixed leather lace up top from 𝑠𝑒𝑘𝑠 and 𝑚𝑎𝑡𝑡𝑒 𝑏𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑑 low risers she wore at her sixth sold out show in cincinnatti had comments raging across tiktok and instagram asking where to purchase.

even though many of her outfits arguably ran a little dark (don't get us wrong, we love a lady in black!), 𝑆𝑝𝑖𝑐𝑒 incorporated captivating splashes of color into her wardrobe that reminded us how cute she is. besides the bold latex 𝑘𝑖𝑚 𝑠ℎ𝑢𝑖 set, the rapper looked darling in her soft pink bodysuit from ℎ𝑜𝑢𝑠𝑒𝑜𝑓𝑗𝑚𝑐 , matching 𝑣𝑒𝑡𝑒𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠 bomber jacket and shiny pina cuissarde boots from 𝑎𝑙𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑝𝑎𝑢𝑙.

this lookbook would be incomplete without the note that nearly everyone's outfit hit. whether self or fan proclaimed, cheetah print has become trademark of 𝑆𝑝𝑖𝑐𝑒'𝑠 brand — and it showed this tour! social media went wild for this decked out leopard print corset set from 𝒂𝒍𝒆𝒋𝒂𝒏𝒅𝒓𝒐 𝒄𝒐𝒍𝒍𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 and 𝑗𝑒𝑛𝑛𝑖𝑓𝑒𝑟 𝑙𝑒'𝑠 tracy boot. traffic to both sites has reportedly ramped up over 150% in the last 7 days.

you can shop any of the mentioned looks through the links above.

Omg I love this idea and trust your judgement. Can you tell me whose type I’d be? (You can include Nick if it fits lmao).

I’m 5’11, I’ve got shortish black hair and blue eyes, I’ve got a bridge and septum piercing and I’m covered in blackwork tattoos. I’m also from England. I’m into all kinds and music but I really love alternative rap, hardcore techno and I fuck with UK hardcore metal.

I’m pretty reserved, don’t really speak much unless I’m spoken to but when I’m drunk I literally won’t shut up and just wanna hug everyone. I’m the kind of person to be really affectionate with my friends and go out my way to make sure the people I care about are always smiling.

I love the rain, my favourite time of year is like that weird period where it’s spring going summer because it’s like.. not TOO warm but it’s also not freezing.

My hobbies include producing music, exploring abandoned buildings, photography, collecting vintage magazines, graphic design and painting.

My style is kinda like gothic chic. I’m obsessed with Alexander Wang runways. I also love the southern gothic aesthetic.

I think that’s everything. 🤭

- ⚔️

Love it love it you’re giving me a Colby brock vibe more than anybody 😭 Ion know if u fuck with him but i kept picturing him as u spoke.

I’m between Nick and Matt, i think you’d get along nicely with Matt but Nick would probably fw ur style/be attracted to u the most

So nick or matt’s type fs

“Arniano is a romantic, elegant and secluded farmhouse villa thirty minutes from Siena. Situated in a rolling landscape of green-black cypresses and hilltop villages, Arniano commands a panoramic view across southern Tuscany at its rural best.

The house is a rare find and has been lovingly converted into an unusually light and airy property by acclaimed interior designer Camilla Guinness. It is exquisitely furnished with a mixture of grand bohemian chic and simple Italian style, creating a beautiful, comfortable and much-loved family home.”

[ID: a drawing of Professor Sycamore from the pokemon series. He is a tall southern European man with curly hair and dark blue eyes.

He is depicted in a togepi print button down, a black cargo skirt with pokéball buttons, a ditto shaped purse, oddish socks, and purple croc-type shoes decorated with pokemon charms.

He has one hand on his chin and his right arm is out. end of ID.]

Tried to do some shading practice with this Professor Sycamore Drawing.

Yes I think he looks best in "Tacky chic" clothes and his ex-boyfriend hated that style.

@k-eke thx for the pec tutorial

Sheer Mag — Playing Favorites (Third Man)

Photo by Christopher Grady

The tracks on Sheer Mag’s initial run of 7”s burst out of a recording fidelity too pinched to contain them. The effect was almost a mash-up; sui generis yet familiar, an infectious collage. Something like Michael Jackson circa 1969 fronting the Rock ‘n’ Roll Animal band, taped on a boombox. Those technical constraints haven’t really been present since their first full-length album, 2017’s Need to Feel Your Love — for better (the space and clarity to match the auditory ambition) and worse (a loss of immediacy and, with it, some vitality). Playing Favorites  was originally planned as a disco EP, but instead the band fleshes out ideas they’ve touched on before; we hear more of the glossy Earth, Wind & Fire boogie from Need to Feel Your Love’s title track, for example. They embellish old sounds with new textures — dub drum patterns and countrified finger slides among them — and, more than ever, emphasize the dance music that’s always bopped and wiggled under the joy buzzer riffing.

“All Lined Up” is the purest nod to disco of the bunch with a jangle and shake of bright, clean guitar, motoring bass and a rapid bongo line. It’s as close as Sheer Mag comes to CHIC, but doesn’t tip over into pastiche, with vocalist Tina Halladay still lifting off into her trademark yowl over Kyle Seely’s shooting star guitar leads. True to its title, Playing Favorites is still, despite the varied palette, obviously a Sheer Mag album and not without its share of more or less straightforward, beat-up-leather-jacket rockers. More or less, because even these often push the band’s sonic parameters. When the blazing guitar duel that opens the Mdou Moctar-assisted “Mechanical Garden” fades into a string section, or when “Eat It and Beat It” dips in and out of industrial, Frippian shredding and practically animatronic backing vocals, a window opens on a more experimental, sprawling direction. Less experimental, but seemingly destined to close out encores, is “Golden Hour,” made of equal parts Allman Brothers, “The Boys Are Back in Town” and “Reelin’ In The Years.” As Halladay levitates, repeating “streaming down/streaming down,” the Seelys and Palmer match her full-throated, nostalgic delivery with a sun shower of southern rock, right down to the organ break. On an album where the curiosity and genre dabbling can be taxing in the aggregate, “Golden Hour” is a stirring example of Sheer Mag hitting a sweet spot closer to their previous marks.

The centerpiece of Playing Favorites, though, and what might be, given its genesis, the album’s raison d'etre, is “Moonstruck.” It’s where the band’s foray into bringing the funk up front with the six-string heroics really breaks through. Hart Seely’s slapped bass and the swaggering guitars of Matt Palmer and Kyle Seely deliver a stout, shimmering instrumental to which the listener must move, and amid which Halladay does her inimitable, pugilistic thing, switching styles from conversational to commanding (sample interjection: “c’mon you son of a bitch!”). It’s groovy, hard-nosed and glamorous. The relished, gleeful line “I might have started a brawl/When I smashed that disco ball/But the smile on your face made me feel so fancy free” is as good a summation as any of Sheer Mag’s enduring magic and of Playing Favorites at its best.
