WONGIE SONG OF THE WEEK: khalid - young dumb & broke

khalid - young dumb & broke
there's something wonderfully sentimental about khalid's new single which happily captures the slacker / aimless / haze of high school teenage apathy which in some weird way resonates just as much to this way old 'adult' at the same time. already a sensation with his massive hit 'location' earlier this year, this 19 year old singer/songwriter is easily one of the breakout stars of 2017. love him!

POP GAL: carly rae jepsen - boy problems

carly rae jepsen - boy problems
ewww.... boy problems are so annoying! what's NOT annoying is the continued discovery of carly rae jepsen's amazingly celebratory 80's pop 'emotion' album. working with fashion photographer petra collins, the collective of cool gals 'over it' (including actress/blogger tavi gevinson) is something that'll make you happy for the weekend. joy of joys!
