GRUNGE NATION

Your Main Girl wants to get something off of her chest. Doesn't it seem like all the fashion bloggers out there are a bunch of girly-girls with bottomless bank accounts? Their outfits might be awesome, but they are a mere fantasy for us small folk. They just make US want what WE CAN'T have afford. Your Main Girl does not care about the "Similar" link at the bottom of the page if it is not cheaper! If she can't afford a Louboutin she can't afford a Manolo. All she is saying is that like most of the college grads out there.... she is flat broke.

A MUSIC POST

*Your Main Girl loves Some Nights by FUN. Shut up.

Don't get YMG's MG wrong, this is not what she would typically select from her iTunes, but she can't get enough of this song. Your Main Girl and Your Main Girl's Main Girl don't even understand the part at the end where he says something about missing his mom and dad and his nephew's eyes, but it sounds really precious. The music video doesn't make any sense either-but we like it, because who doesn't like a guy who can sing, especially one in a war uniform? The beat also changes so often it feels like you're listening to a new song every 45 seconds. 

Next time you're pre-gaming with your besties4lyfe and are trying not to fall asleep bc you're still hungover from the night before, put on Some Nights, there is no shame in it, Your Main Girl's Main Girl said so.

MINI POST: ART

THE ARTIST LEE PRICE: IN HONOR OF THE HOLIDAY

Asleep: Oil on Linen & Blueberry Pancakes II: Oil on Linen, 64" x 31" &  56” x 38”

Sleeping With Peaches: Oil on Linen, 56" x 81"  

Your Main Girl didn't see this artwork in person though it is on display in New York at the Wendt Gallery and the Gallery Henoch. Her bad, she was too busy eating and stuff. 

Speaking of eating and stuff; that is what Price has given to us via oil paint. She draws a woman, presumably herself, eating...and stuff. Well, excellent subject matter my friend, it really hits home for YMG. What is more heavenly than eating blueberry pancakes while you work on your hygiene. Don't answer that, Your Main Girl doesn't care. 

FASHION POST: STREET STYLE

Street style in New York does not compare to street style anywhere else in the world. When Your Main Girl dresses for the catwalk that is the NYC streets she thinks of it as a dirty canvas.It is YMG's job to paint these dirty streets with something people will stop and stare at. 

YOU LOOK DIRTY: A FASHION POST

Your Main Girl is going to make this very simple: Printed Denim is in, shorts and tights are like so Europe, & adding any tee to a dressy outfit makes you look like you're a fu*king rockstar. 

WHAT? AN ART POST.

Ron English: Crucial Fiction

YMG visited the Opera Gallery in SOHO to see Ron English's solo exhibit entitled, Crucial Fiction. She had to see this artist's work in person. Take a look at the most amazing, trippy, wtf art you-will-ever-see. 

Let's start with Exhibit A: In front of us is Ms. Marilyn Monroe, one of the biggest sex symbols of modern America. We also have Mickey Mouse, one of the biggest childhood symbols of modern America. Two things that obv belong to together right? WRONG. But it feels so right. 

Marilyn With Mickey Mouse, Screen Print

Now for exhibit B: English takes the iconic Rolling Stones tongue and makes it cooler. You didn't think that was possible? Neither did Your Main Girl. The Lips are two people having funky intimate relations and the background is made up of psychedelic skulls.Didn't see that at first glance, did you?!

Star Skull Lady Lips Oil, synthetic polymer paint and collage
 on canvas 80 x 60 inches 

Exhibit C: The good stuff. Your main girl doesn't know how English comes up with this sh*t but she is happy he does! What could be better than a suspiciously happy Barney riding a T-rex, with Homer Simpson looking aimlessly by his side, and  Ronald McDonald Chillin' in a UFO?... 

DONT EVEN COUTURE

YMG is launching her new jewelry line.
