Today on Autostraddle: AMAZING interview — Stef-on-Hesta Prynn about her new solo project (Sara Quin is “A&R’ing” on it!) Hesta’s band Northern State toured with Tegan & Sara last year, which is reason 450 on the list of why Gay Ladies Love Northern State. Reason #1 is that Hesta’s new project is kickass and will blow your boy-briefs right off your lesbian ass, and obvs Northern State has been consistently kickass for many many years.

We’ve been toying around with ideas for a fashion component to this site, but until then I’ll try to add some cool style links to the daily fix. Jump start your spring/summer wardrobe with these killer Sebago Docksiders designed by Vane New York. They are opening their Lower East Side pop-up shop today, but you can order them on the Sebago website as well. Act fast — they only made 360 pairs of each of the 4 designs (check out the look book here). (@coolhunting)
