All Caught Up: Polo Bear, Kids Pick the President, Sandy Liang x Monchhichi
WTF is a winter arc?
Hello! I had every intention in the world this week of going long about the Addison Rae (re)Brand but honestly, everything worth saying has already been covered.
Fabulous job assembling a team, great gowns, etc.
Since next week will be… hectic here in the States, to say the least, we will take a week off and keep the digital space a little bit less noisy.
This week's picks include bootleg private jet flights, Netflix Moments and the print magazine revival of 2024.
