Tunesday; VERITE

Somebody Else; VERITE

We absolutely love VERITE's pop'y cover of

The 1975's "Somebody Else".  

It's been one of our favorite tunes

for the last couple of months, and we

have heard several different artists covering

the song, but this is by far one of our favorites.

It has a sort of "Anthem"-esque feel to it.

Check it out now on Spotify!

Happy Tunesday!

Show Me Route 66

Traveling is one of the true loves in our lives. 

We thrive on adventure, meeting new people

 and having our eyes opened to new experiences and cultures.

 We are proud that the world-famous Route 66 highway

 is not only historical to America, but in St. Louis as well. 

This dream route is celebrating its 90th year of 

adventures and though the "original" route is not intact,

 Route 66 can still be traveled by a few historical routes

 that have been modified over time.

We can only imagine how beautiful traveling the 

route would have been at its peak to see all the 

sites and architectures at the time!

Oh how far licence plates how come

in their design over the years! It's crazy to think

how basic they use to be.

We really go a kick out of the old cars on display

at the exhbit. It's hard to imagine people actually felt 

SAFE in these things!

 We were like bugs to a light with all the

amazing neon signs the exhibit had on display.

It was the first sight we saw when we walked in

and I think it is safe to say it is where we spent a majority

of our exploration. How could you not?!

We wanted every vintage neon sign for our home.

We asked if we could keep one, but we were quickly

turned down.

 Hands down one of the MOST amazing pieces

in the exhibit is the original Chase Park Plaza neon sign,

beautifully refurbished by the museum. It was spectacular!

We can't even begin to imagine how magnificent it was 

in it's prime. Pictures don't do this one justice,

you definitely have to see it for yourself!

The Missouri History Museum is celebrating Route 66's 

birthday until next July with its interactive and free, 

6,000 foot exhibit that guide visitors through

 St. Louis's most popular stops throughout the route's

 history, many of which are still around today. Without 

giving too much away- we loved all of the buzzing

 neon signs, the AIRSTREAM TRAILER and

 the diner-themed area complete with jukebox, 

original uniforms and listening station.

We were also surprised to learn that some of

 our favorite spots now have been a favorite to visitors and 

St. Louisans for decades

 (see if you can catch those fave spots in the images above).

Moto Z Fashion Night at Laurie Solet

Last week, we gave you an insight into

Verizon's amazing program to fight domestic violence,

HopeLine. Verizon graciously invited us to learn

more about this wonderful program at their evet

last week at the boutique Laurie Solet.

 At the event Verizon also gave us a sneak

peak into all of the amazing products they have to

offer with their exclusive product, the  Moto Z. 

The camera on this phone is convincing enough

to convert us from being iPhone users.

The photo quality is almost more vivid than real life!

Along with the phone came some AMAZING accessories called Moto Mods.

All of the MOTO Z accessories, including the phone cases

 "snap" onto the back of the 

phone using special magnetic technology that also

connects the accessory to the device.

We were especially impressed with the speaker

and projector accessory.

That's right, you heard us, a PROJECTOR.

It's as cool as it sounds. The projector snaps onto

the back of the phone and displays whatever is showing or

playing on your phone onto a screen, up to 10 feet!

... Anyone thinking what we are thinking? Sounds

perfect for some backyard bonfires and movies

projecting on the garage.

This event was such a unique way to get acquainted with 

all of the wonderful devices Verizon has to offer.... 

and was made even  better with a side of shopping

with some of our favorite fellow bloggers

at one of our cool local boutiques, Laurie Solet.

This store has so much to offer from jewelry,

to the seasons latest trends with some amazing brand names;

including Free People and Cupcakes and Cashmere, 

and plenty more!

We can't wait to share what we bought

in this season's Fashion Posts!
