Last Minute Thanksgiving Eve Extravaganza

timedream.tumblr.com

It's that time of the year again - Thanksgiving Eve, aka one of the biggest party nights of the year.  For some, this evokes great memories; returning home for the holiday and being able to go out with all your old friends as a group until Thanksgiving Eve 2013.  For others, this night is nothing more than an annoyance, as the less than desirable bridge and tunnel crowds pack our favorite venues to capacity with sky rocketing entrance fees.  Either way, you know damn well you won't be found sitting home on the couch with a glass of wine watching re-runs of "The King of Queens", that's what Sunday through Tuesday nights are for anyway.  Below is a list of below the radar events tonight for all you last minute procrastinators.  Happy Thanksgiving!

Detroit Electronic Movement Festival

Do you love music festivals but are tired of the same neon-clad teeny bopper crowd sucking on lollipops "raging" like there's no tomorrow to the now standard "Top 40" playlist of "EDM"? If your answer is yes, Detroit's Movement Festival is where you should find yourself on Memorial Day Weekend (May 25 - 27).  Beginning in 2000, the Movement Festival has remained a bare to the bones experience focused strictly on the music.  With techno heavy weights such as Chris Liebing, Kevin Saunderson, Carlo Lio, Juan Atkins, Josh Wink, Marco Carola (to name a few) annually saturating the lineup, we can guarantee that the most popular outfit color will be black.  Excited yet?  The best news of all is that this festival is insanely cheap.  Single day tickets are $34, three day passes are $69, and three day VIP passes are a meager $154.  So come get in touch with your gritty, industrial side and join us in the Motor City.  Tickets are now on sale here.

Is Your Favorite The Greatest?

soundisstyle.com

Mixmag knows that everyone has that one track they listen to on repeat while relentlessly trying to make it their best friend's favorite song as well.  Until December 21st, Mixmag is asking you turn that passion into a vote by going to their website and entering what you believe to be the "Greatest Dance Track of All Time".  Voters can choose between 300 nominated songs from all different sub genres of dance music with release dates ranging from 1977-2012.  Dont worry, if that's not a broad enough selection for you, you even have the option of manually entering your track of choice.  The winner will be announced January 17th in the February edition of Mixmag. 

Election Day at Urban Outfitters

urbanoutfitters.com

Today is the day that welcomes endless facebook status rants, some clever, but mostly not, meme's being posted left and right (no pun intended), and an overwhelming amount of political hashtags on twitter.  We agree that everyone should go out and vote. Not only is your right, the act of voting will also  grant you with a perk at one of our favorite stores, Urban Outfitters.  According to the flier above which is posted on their website, Urban will take 20% off your total purchase for today only, once you present proof that you have already visited the polls.  Good thing our closest Urban is open till 11 pm, although the lines at election centers won't mirror those at the gas pump, we know that this is a critical election for Americans. 

Sandy Essential: Pleather Pants

http://breakfastatyurmans.tumblr.com/

As our first post Sandy post, we though it would be appropriate to write about the one piece of clothing that has been a wardrobe essential for us this past week.  If you're thinking anything along the lines of raincoat, gloves or knit sweaters, you're far off.  Having pleather pants has been a gamechanger in the quality of day and night outfits we were able to create with the few pieces of clothing we grabbed before fleeing our powerless apt.  Pairing these pants with a plain black tee and boots is a comfortable and fashionable daywear look, while adding a lace shirt and heels dresses up the outfit for a night out.  Being so versatile, pleather pants are definitely a closet staple.
