Carving (& Drilling) Pumpkins with Karina
I wanted an excuse to see Karina’s schnauzer Lou Lou last week so I bought two medium sized pumpkins at Lowe’s in Chelsea and hauled them all the way to Queens. I already knew I wanted to carve an emoji on my pumpkin, but Karina was undecided. She saw a few cool patterned carvings online…

Gallery Mondays: Celeb Cats
My parents have just moved out to Long Island, so this weekend when I went to visit them I tagged along for some furniture shopping. At Bob’s Furniture in Farmingdale, I saw these hilarious celebrity inspired cat paintings on a children’s bed. One cat is Lady Gaga with the blond bow hair, another is Pharrell…

Fan Art Fridays: Natalie Portman
Today I found out that Natalie Portman is playing Jackie Kennedy in the new film coming in December called Jackie. And oh-em-gee did the clothing design and hair and makeup artists do an amazing job at transforming her! I can’t handle how amazing the resemblance is. Needless to say, I might actually go see the film…

Gallery Mondays: Platform by Jillian Tamaki
As a New Yorker, I must say, this is a very accurate representation of an NYC MTA subway platform. I’ve been seeing this art card on several trains, but since the cars are always packed to the brim, I could never get a good photo of it until recently. Called “Platform,” the art card by…

Gallery Mondays: URBANIMAL’s Pet Dragon
I’ve had this pic sitting in my phone for a few month’s now. I felt it was time to unleash the dragon in this graffiti by URBANIMAL. I saw this piece on a truck on the corner of West 37th and 8th Ave, and I immediately knew it was by URBANIMAL because of the way the…

Gigi Hadid had a rough week, so Fan Art Fridays is going out to her today. Celeb prankster Vitalii Sediuk managed to grab and lift the model up as she was walking out of a fashion show in Milan with her sister Bella on Thursday. Gigi fought him off, as I would have done, and…

Gallery Mondays: The Birds
Fall is literally two days away, so the lovely birds that came to visit NYC for the summer will be headed south soon. I saw this amazing street art by Denton Burrows on a shipping container near the intersection of Ludow and East Houston Street in the East Village earlier this month. The two birds…

Gallery Mondays: Béatrice Coron’s “Elegant”
NYFW SS17 is in full swing! It’s so much fun just walking around Manhattan during New York Fashion Week and seeing all the fashionable people walking about from venue to venue between shows. I got off the A train at 104 Street last week on the way to my parents’ house and I remembered Béatrice Coron’s…

Fan Art Fridays: Tim Gunn
I woke up this morning to find Tim Gunn trending on social media because of this piece he wrote for the Washington Post about fashion designers refusing to make clothes that fit American women. It becomes a problem when consumers see how a piece of clothing looks on a model of a certain height and weight…

Fan Art Fridays: Happy Birthday, Zedd!
Zedd turned 27 today! Seems like the birthday boy is pumping some “Adrenaline” for his special day, as his new track was released today. “Adrenaline” is a collaboration with up-and-coming producers Grey. They’re so mysterious. I want to know more about them… In honor of Zedd’s birthday, I’ve selected this incredible piece of fan art…
