• Gallery Mondays: Crystallize by La’Maj & Co

  Well, hello there, 2017! About a year ago, I saw this gorgeous replica of a bottle of Moët & Chandon Impérial Champagne in the window of a shop between Fashion Ave. and 8th Ave. in the Garment District in Manhattan. I wish I could remember which shop it was exactly, but the only information I…

• 2016’s Best in Music

  My favorite part of the year is here again! 2016 was a great year in music for my indie darlings and popular artists alike. As usual, thanks to Spotify, I was introduced to countless new music making geniuses, causing a great deal of stress while creating this “best of” list. Nonetheless, I made a decision…

• Wardrobe Wednesdays: Adriana Lima @ LA Lakers vs. Brooklyn Nets game, Barclays Center

  Brazilian model Adriana Lima wore a sexy white choker dress to the LA Lakers vs. Brooklyn Nets game at Barclays Center in NYC last week, showing off some cleavage. Or should I say A LOT of cleavage? She paired the dress with a pair of gray suede Aquazurra over-the-knee boots, giving the look a sassy…

• Gallery Mondays: Spa

  We got our first snow in NYC over the weekend, but I wasn’t even mad because I had a reservation at Russian and Turkish Baths in the East Village. I went with Karina, who has been to a few other bath houses before the one we went to on Saturday. It was my first time…

• Gallery Mondays: Dream Jar

  I went to the NJEA at the Atlantic City Convention Center in New Jersey again this year for work. I was super excited to see the student artwork there, and I wasn’t disappointed. I saw this really great mixed media piece by Irving Adame from Haddon Township High School. As soon as I saw it,…

• Gallery Mondays: Puck

  Back in September, I was walking through NoLIta after buying tickets for a show at Mercury Lounge when I saw this golden statue on the Puck Building, known as the home of retail store REI. When I first saw the statue, which is one of Shakespeare’s characters named Puck (hence the name of the building),…

• Gallery Mondays: On Ripeness and Rot

  Is it still hunting season? I saw this rather interesting piece of art last month at Last Rites Gallery in Midtown. The piece is part of Kimberly Witham’s On Ripeness and Rot series, which contrasts fresh fruits with dead animal carcasses. How’s that for morbid? It’s crazy how she combines the two so gracefully, almost as they…

• Gallery Mondays: ‘Untitled’ by Brittany Mangar

  I visited the Studio Museum in Harlem last month during Open House New York 2016 where I found an exhibit full of photography by emerging high school artists who participated in the museum’s Expanding the Walls program. It’s not surprising that I found this exhibit, Color in Shadow, intriguing. Most of the photographers are around…
