❣️Ins  Boring meals/leftovers delight (less time fussing over the stove)  Underwire bras Yuzu-flavoured everything Jewellery with a history  Dark painted interiors  Bare nails (preferably bitten, shows character)  Self-publishing  Re-reading books you love and ignoring TBR lists On that note, not reading books you’re “supposed to” have read Too many coffees (we’ve been playing it too safe, people. Let your heart remind you it exists, like a pitter patter of rain inside your chest.) 🗑️Outs  Kitten heels Long manicures  Natural deodorant  Linen sheets (cotton percale all day)  Wolf cuts  Pay-in-4 - it’s a money trap, friends. Save your coins! By the time you’ve saved up the $, you might not want it. Dogs with backpacks (smelling treats but not being able to access them is a special kind of torture) Carrying everything you need (then you miss out on the beauty of that spontaneous Duane Reade trip where you leave with mint-flavoured toothpicks and a bag of gummies! What were you there for again??)

If you’re from brooklyn or new york city or just moved here, i know, this is cliche. But i! Don’t! Care! The truffle popcorn is addicting, even if I'm farting for the rest of the movie, it’s worth it. Plus they have cute little trailers to gab about with your date or friend, but i also go alone because nobody tried to have small talk with you at the movies and you can just disassociate peacefully in blissful high-power air conditioning on a hot nyc summer day. They have guest curators on a monthly basis and do fun screenings of old flicks. Highly recommend it. Nitehawk > Alamo.

I have another indie theater that I prefer because it’s cozier, has better vibes, is much closer to me, and everybody who works there is genuinely passionate about film. It’s not really anything special visually but it’s a beautiful institution and it’s so fun to be there ❤️ But this one is an old art deco theatre designed by architect John Eberson (he designed Loew’s Paradise in the Bronx and the Paradise Theatre in Chicago)! It’s pretty run down/poorly managed and staffed but it’s a gorgeous building and definitely worth visiting. Not my photos but included for illustrative purposes!!

Again, I'm using this category as an umbrella so I can list my favorite movies that I think by watching will make everyone's life better or at least distract you from whatever bullshit is going on in your own life for a moment, and put a smile on your face. Maybe you'll even relate to what the characters in the films are going through and you'll feel a little bit less alone and it will change your life forever. These are my favorite movies that I watch over and over again: An Unmarried Woman, Swingers, Annie Hall, Broken English, Girlfriends. Last Days of Disco, and Hannah and Her Sisters. And one of my favorite theaters to watch movies in in New York City is Metrograph. A sanctuary. A safe haven. The programming is extraordinary. And they have a wonderful restaurant upstairs called The Commissary. Run don't walk.

Yes, it’s 5 hours without an intermission. I saw it in Melbourne in 2013 and went back to see it again in the same run. It’s been over 10 years (wowwie!) and I can’t think of another piece of art that has imprinted on my imagination the way that performance did. I was also eighteen years old and green and wide-eyed! What a time that was.

I have to start off this recommendation with an apology, as for all your Northern Hemisphere-based folks wont be able to find this easily as I stock up when I go home to Australia. BUT, in all my years of hunting for the perfect white t-shirt that hangs just right, I have found my holy grail. Specifically, the Boody men’s crew neck t-shirt (NOT the new “classic” which is mostly viscose, ew), bit the original which is 95% bamboo. I buy them in a Small and they are the perfect oversized t-shirt. Buttery soft, expensive-looking and, most importantly, stay looking fresh after they’ve tumbled about in a washing machine. I’m hoarding a few!

No frills, no expensive subscriptions, just a basic app that occasionally crashes (bless) with a limited number of meditations guaranteed to lull you to sleep. Personally, endless choice is the last thing I want when I'm trying to reach the Land of Nod. Give me the same sweet Englishman telling me how to dial down each of my senses and I'll fall asleep every time. They also have guided meditations for daytime situations if that's your thing, but I'm a "meditate till my earbuds fall out in the dark" kind of gal.
