Watch: La La Land
We know, we know, everyone is talking about this movie! But we still can’t help being obsessed with it. We loved all the singing and dancing, and it was so fun to see a musical made and set in today’s world. If you haven’t seen it, treat yourself to this dazzling movie with beautiful music, dancing and choreography! And if you have already seen it, we have enjoyed listening to the soundtrack on our commute – it is sure to put you in an upbeat mood!
Listen: Modern Love Podcast
We love this podcast! It is based on the super popular NY Times column – Modern Love, which is a collection of reader submitted essays on love and relationships. The podcast consists of notable personalities like Katie Couric, Colin Farrell, and January Jones reading these stories with updates from the essayists themselves. The podcast is so touching and beautiful, and we love that they are based on true relationship stories.
