Start watching this new music series now. It’s going to be adorbs. Guaranteed.
You MUST watch this series of videos (which I can no longer embed because they start playing on their own… terribly annoying). Three videos highlighting the amazing grassroots, community-and-creativity-fueled rebirth of Detroit.
No doubt that Detroit will reemerge as a creative leader and hotbed of innovation in the next decade. Stay tuned.
Seriously. Watch all 3 here.
Going to see these little ladies at The Bowery this week.
Adorbs.
Oh you know, just a standard night at The Standard Hotel… nbd…
Seriously one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen!!! Even a street full of jaded New Yorkers was blown away. Each one of these lights is A HOTEL ROOM— complete with choreographed dancer inside.
Target, you are amazing!!! NYC loves you.
Aaaand I’m back in NYC.
But actively wishing I were still on holiday. Le sigh.

Cee-Lo has a really cool new video for his cover of Band of Horses. The song is great and the video is desperately romantic, especially with all the nudity, which is why it’s NSFW. See it here.

This is probably the first time puppets have made me want to dance (since age 5, anyway).
This Sia video for Clap Your Hands has a really charming, homemade, arts and crafts quality that reminds me a lot of Isabella Rossellini’s latest work.
Also, the song is infectious.
