After a week full of 60+ degree weather in New York, I'm officially read to slam the laptop shut and enter the weekend. I'm bathing suit shopping online, I'm spending time basking in the short-lived early spring weather, and I'm absolutely gearing up to make another playlist to get through the weekend.

Spoiler alert: This contains spoilers for Young Royals Season 1 and Young Royals Season 2. If you haven’t watched those, I envy you. Your life is about to change. No spoilers for Young Royals Season 3.

All the cool film girlies just came back from Berlin. Specifically, they are fresh from the 74th Berlin International Film Festival, and they still smell like cigarettes to prove it.

Growing up a One Direction fan, I am brimming with unnecessary knowledge of four British (and one Irish) men.
