Gallery Mondays: Tara
Last week, I visited the Rubin Museum downtown with Niketa during K2 Lounge Fridays. It was too cool! I waited for Niketa in the museum’s gift shop, where I ended up acquiring some new post cards for my walls. When she arrived she bought a bracelet and fragrant soap. After our little shopping spree, we sat down…

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…

Roosevelt @ Mercury Lounge
I saw Roosevelt live at Mercury Lounge with my friend Karina on Tuesday, September 28th, and it was by far the best concert I’ve ever attended. The night began with me panicking because I couldn’t get a hold of Karina by cell and the opening act, Shallou, had already begun at 7. She wasn’t answering…

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…

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: “Art of Jazz” Mural at PAL Harlem
I saw this vibrant mural on the side of the Police Athletic League (PAL) on the west side of Harlem a few weeks ago while headed to pick up some items I found in a Craigslist ad. I just had to stop and understand what was happening in this mural. There’s a trumpet-playing man popping…

Gallery Mondays: ‘Shadows & Substance’ by Marcia Haufrecht
I was walking by Chashama 266 in Midtown West last month when I saw these really great paintings. I loved the summer vibes I got from them so I snapped a pic from the other side of the glass door. I really need to make an appointment to see one of Chashama 266’s exhibits at some…

Wardrobe Wednesdays: Lily Aldridge at Radiohead Concert in NYC
Lily Aldridge was spotted wearing a black studded mini dress and ankle boots on her way to a Radiohead concert in NYC on Tuesday. She played the look down with a camo dress shirt, which she wore opened and rolled up a bit on the sleeves. I usually am very iffy about mixing patterns but…

Gallery Mondays: Her Conference 2016 at Old Slip
Over the weekend I attended Her Conference 2016 at Old Slip in the Financial District of NYC. The building is super lavish, complete with auditorium space, conference rooms, and a dining hall. At check in, I noticed these rectangular blocks of abstract art lined up in an interesting pattern on the wall. They all seem…
