01.06 This Week's Index
a subtle ode to time well spent
babes, i’m going back to the North this week for the holidays. while i’m sad to leave CDMX, i’m excited to spend time with family and get back into my NYC routine.
a lot happened in 2024 and you can get the figurative / personal take in my last post. but i don’t want to be depressing anymore and wanted to spruce things up with a fun wrapped list of my favorite recents.
you know the drill — we’ll cover a lot of ground from music, art, to randomness. hopefully you check them out or just read this post haha.
disfruta,
ten xoxo
The Mat MX | my go-to spot for hot yoga + pilates while in CDMX. the pilates class was no joke and worth the sweat.
GNX by Kendrick Lamar | while i’m still a champagne papi fan, i need to show respect for this awesome album. fave track: hey now ft. dody6
everything on Creative Independent | been following them since inception. their content + interviews provide a realistic lens into what creativity in the everyday looks like. current fave interview: on being generous in your work with poet Ocean Vuong
Cardón MX | stumbled upon their shop in Condesa and fell in love. their selections focus on Mexican and Latin American designers. really cool styles & fits!
the movie Queer | took myself on a solo date to the Cinépolis Diana and Luca Guadagnino did not disappoint with this trippy, angsty cinematic take on William Lee Burroughs’ book. honorable mention: Omar Apollo acts in it. <3
House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski | read a review of it and thought “why not?” oof, i was not prepared for this psychological thriller and actually got spooked. also geeked out on its footnotes!
Sombra Tattoo | got a new tatt here and absolutely loved it! hit my girl reeeegi up if you’re in CDMX :)
the series Shop Cats | as the resident cat mom, you know i can’t turn away a mini series about the fabulous bodega cats of NYC. the host Michella Donna is so hilarious!
NYTimes interview with André 3000 | i’m a huge fan of his and immediately digested the entire interview + performance as soon as i got the email notification. such a beautiful mind!
Duolingo | i’ve been learning Italian + Arabic for the past few months and this app was a huge help . . . even though it harasses the shit out of me lol.
Museo Jumex’s Siluetas Sobre Maleza exhibition | omg such a rich exploration into the body and territory. also it featured Ana Mendieta’s works and had a huge fangirl moment.
[i carry your heart with me(i carry it in] by e.e. cummings | a hint for what the next post will be about . . .
