Who can say no to a good infographic? Not me!

Fact #8 makes me SO UNHAPPY. USE A CONDOM LADIES!

Maddie told me about Stereomood & I am totally loving it! You basically pick something from a cloud which corresponds to how you are or where you’d like to be — energetic, dressing up, bohemian, driving route 66, feel like crying, foreplay (!) — & it spits out a playlist that you can stream.

The Cool Hunter is fantastic. The Power of Color & On Top of The World – The Rise of The Observation Deck are great.

Entire Dog Lost, Delta Offers $200 Credit. You have to be kidding me.

Erin Fetherson Feels A ‘Natural Synergy’ With Juicy Couture. Did you know she’s working as a creative consultant for the company that popularised the “fashion tracksuit”? I think their collaborations are going to be really interesting. I said this on Twitter a while ago but their aesthetic sensibility — especially in their advertising (shot by Tim Walker) — is so whimsical & frothy, which is totally Erin. So I think it’s going to be a success.

The Joy Junket Manifesto is good stuff.

Are you in New York? Do you like to get naked? Do you like to paint? If so, you should go to the Naked Painting Party later this month!

Ben Heine’s illustrations are excellent.

How to Make Visa Obey Your Every Desire: The Credit Card Concierge Experiment! Hahah!
