Snowy Manhattan
It was nice to wake up this morning to a snowy Manhattan. When I got outside onto my street, the snow was really light. It’s seems to be coming down much harder now. Hoping they call it an early day for us :)

Just got back to my desk to find a treat from a co-worker. He brought back a box of red velvet cupcakes from Big Booty Bakery for a bunch of us. Funny name aside, they have awesome baked goods (and empanadas!) If you’re near Chelsea, definitely check them out.

If you’re a regular reader of this blog, you probably have come to suspect that I’m a big Ryan McGinley fan. Yesterday I tweeted about his ethereal photo series for the New York Times Magazine, which captured Winter Olympians in mid-flight draped in Rodarte.
The above video, McGinley made for Opening Ceremony’s collection of Levi’s cords. In it, he captures models mid-air to the music of Pictureplane’s “Goth Star.”

My friend Colleen and I have been obsessively planning DIY projects as of late. Projects we have slated are the pies in a jar and these terarriums. I thought the above images could act as inspiration until we finally get some time to be able to make things.

"To be hopeful in bad times is not just foolishly romantic. It is based on the fact that human history is a history not only of cruelty, but also of compassion, sacrifice, courage, kindness…If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember those times and places — and there are so many — where people have behaved magnificently, this gives us the energy to act."
R.I.P., Howard Zinn
