Audio Obsessions

Some songs I'm obsessing over currently - mainly from my Toronto road trip. They're all perfect for a summer playlist.

Gotye- Easy Way Out
Great 1960s feeling to it

CHAPPO- Come Home
I love everything, love everything about this song.

The Raveonettes- Into the Night
So dreamy- I cannot wait to listen to this at night off a balcony in California


Washed Out- Feel It All Around
Theme song of Portlandia and just oozing with cool.

Black + White

Currently obsessing over the classiness of the black and white combo.




Even the shoes are working both





I love the belt skirt combo and I die for these shoes


Can't wait to try the look out.

Tangerine Touches


Today's Inspiration for all things tangerine colored:


Speaking of tangerine, I decided to buy an item to celebrate my new blog so I stopped at Somerset and bought these sandals at Aldo:

"Sprouls" Sandal

They're just the first step to expanding my current tangerine collection:

Scarf from a Chinese store in NYC

Tassel necklace from H&M in Chicago

Victoria's Secret Bathing Suit 

Forever21 Dress - can't wait to wear in California

I'll keep posting more tangerine finds.

Dominican Flashback

This past spring break I went to Punta Cana and stayed at the Barcelo Premium Resort. It was ridiculously beautiful and perfect weather every day. I took a few pictures on my iPod touch and never uploaded them. So here they are:


Don Julios - we ate Pizza here every day

Day of Sunscreen

Hello Blog world! I'm beyond excited to finally start my own blog. I've been meaning to do it for so long but I couldn't find the perfect name. But today changed that.


The name "Tannegerine" came to me listening to Shwayze's "Don't Be Shy" as he sang:
Sweet little nectarine 
Sit down next to me  
Take a load off, Annie 
I think you're beautiful
So nectarine got me thinking tangerine, and I loved the idea of using my name (Anne) in the word Tangerine. And as far as colors go, I am falling madly in love with the color orange plus I have a slight obsession with staying tan. And so the perfect name was born.


As for today, my day was wonderful. I ate breakfast at my friend Katie's house and played with her dogs, Winnie & Sophie.
So cute.

Then I kayaked with my friend Jess on her lake for 2 hours. Such a great shoulder workout! 
Prime tanning today


Of course I said hi to her dog, Jenny:


In light of anti-aging talk and 2 hours of kayaking in prime sun time, I had to stop by Ulta and pick up this SPF moisturizer:
Yes to Blueberries SPF 30 Moisturizer $20


It took me a while to choose, but I wanted to have a good moisturizer that protects my skin from the sun and smells good.   This was one of the only ones at Ulta that fit both, while being a reasonable price. I can't wait to use it. I don't think it's ever too early to protect your skin from wrinkles, and so skincare is my new religion as far as I'm concerned.

That's all for now. Can't wait to upload all of my purchases from the last month. Stay tuned!
