“I have an embarrassing admission or maybe not embarrassing when you consider the current options for music discovery: a substantial portion of this list came from Shazamming songs in television shows and movies. For example, the first song “Dur Dur d’être bébé!” by Jordy was a recent find when I was watching The Real World: London. The song introduces Australian model and actress, Jacinda Barrett. She’s from the era when reality TV didn’t doom one to be a reality TV star.

HAPPY NEW YEAR MY ANGELS! I’ve missed you so much 🥺 How have you been??? It’s been so fucking cute to see how many of you have been reading Make It Make Sense over the break - please send me all the pics!!!!!! Most of my break was filled with my friends coming home from overseas (Liv from the UK and Rubes from Sydney!!!!) so lots and lots of gorge girl time!!! There was also lots of beach, lots of lake, and very little internet. Which is probably why I’m feeling so GOOD RIGHT NOW.

Welcome to ICYMI, an ad hoc edition of Fashion Tingz that’s part read/watch/listen recommendations, part places you need to visit, part fashion things you may have missed… and 100% a good time. As an ex-fashion editor and personal stylist, I see a lot of cool fashion shit floating around the digital depths of the Internet. Now, this stuff may seem kind of out there, kind of obscure, or kind of boring — it all depends on who you ask.

If I can stream whatever I want, autoplaying for the rest of my life from a queue of my non-making, morphing art into entertainment into consumption. The result is a landscape of devalued creative expressions and a devaluing of creatives. Why pay an artist when I can just lift this for free?
