June Favorites: Furious Factious Pot Washers & “TV In the Morning” by DNCE
June was a mix of mourning and adventure. We lost two great figures, one from the fashion world (Kate Spade) and another from the food industry (Anthony Bourdain). This really made everyone wake up and realize that mental health is a serious issue plaguing our society. There were, though, a few amazing things that happened…

Fan Art Fridays: Olly Alexander
Years & Years put out a new album today called Palo Santo, and I’m really loving it! My faves on the album are “Hallelujah”, “Rendezvous”, and “Karma”, which happen to be the more upbeat tunes on the track list. I’ve always loved the ballad-y songs from Years & Years, but this time around I’m digging the…

April Favorites: Melania Trump’s White Hat Memes & Yodeling Kid
Oh. Em. Gee. It’s. May. Like, two weeks into May already and I’m just getting a chance to sit down to write this April Favorites post. I have been so busy and so exhausted. Every time I told myself I would get this post done I’d end up falling asleep. Anyway, April had some interesting…

Spring 2018 Wonderland Playlist
Spring 2018 finally decided to make its way to New York. Yeah, I know, I know, it’s technically already mid-spring. Mother Nature is such a diva. And then she had the nerve to make it so hot during the first week of May that I couldn’t even walk three minutes to the train station without…

March Favorites: Bachelor Arie Banned & #MarchforOurLives
Okay, so I know I always joke about the saying that goes “March comes in like a lion and out like a lamb,” but this year it legitimately did. The beginning of the month was so rough, especially with all the non-stop snow storms. I could not deal. I don’t think I’ve ever been more…

Fan Art Fridays: Chloe x Halle
Okay, I know I’m a little late with this, but my ears just got around to finishing Chloe x Halle’s new album, which was very well orchestrated, IMO. Titled The Kids Are Alright, the album features a great mix of R&B, pop, and trap. It’s been a while since I’ve thoroughly enjoyed an entire album…

February Favorites: Avocado Proposals & Amy Schumer’s Wedding
The Month of Love was quite lovely, and I’m so sad it ended so quickly. Ugh, why does February have to be so short?! Pop culture brought us a few really insane/cute romantic news stories and some eargasmic tunes (my ears are still ringing well into March 2018, guys). Let’s take a look at my…
