Girl Crush: Nora Kirkpatrick

Keyboards are the new messenger bags.

Nora Kirkpatrick is 1/12th the indie, psychedelic, folk group, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros. They are a traveling band of hipster gypsies and their happy, eclectic sound is intoxicating. Nora plays the keyboard, accordion and the occasional tambourine. Crush! At a recent live show, she totally shined in a simple baby blue vintage romper with her long blond hair in a middle part. At Coachella she was snapped in another sweet vintage number. I just love her chic Marsha Brady style. I can totally see her jamming in AKA’s floral romper or Rag & Bone’s stam romper.
