The talented Julia Lea has come on board as the POD's NYC cool stuff spotter. Loved her first submission of this simple VM for J Crew's summer catalogue launch.

Love the look of J Crew's new flagship do. Reclaimed hickory floors and vintage chandeliers complement the curated look design direction. This showcase collection store is up town at No. Ten Thirty Five Madison Ave. Via J Crew.

When in NYC stick to Soho
Icecream on a stick has been around forever. Popbar makes them fresh daily from good ingredients. These guys have portion control licked. Next time you're in New York pop into Popbar.
Cup of tea, Bex & a good lie down anyone?
As a general rule I only post things I've actually 'been & seen' but this chocolate Barcelona couch I spotted on artinfo.com was too good not to offer you a slice.
"Walking closer, one realized that the couch was made of chocolate, each pleat, button, and stitch lovingly rendered with a thick coating that looked eerily like leather. As the maid sliced into the couch, she revealed the glorious truth: a moist, buttery layer cake with hints of cream, coffee, and liquor buried inside. The pillow was even softer, fashioned from an airy angel food cake spiked with vanilla. Viewers had difficulty deciding whether to stare or eat, but quickly settled on the latter."

Williamsburg NYC. Am loving this beer and bbq hall I spotted on www.eater.com. Beer tap handles made from Butcher's knives and a huge wall graphic that is a cut above some others I've seen. I have just promised myself I'm off to NYC before the year is out!
