Here at the Worley Gig, we are ever on the hunt for extreme cuteness — the kind of things that make you immediately squee. To kick off spring, undeniably the cutest season of the year, we’re delighted to introduce the latest offerings from K2A (Kid2Adult) Brands and their irresistibly cuddly Moosh-Moosh line of plush pals.

Just try to resist these adorable new Hatchlings (a sweet nod to the Easter egg-decorating tradition), along with colorful springtime designs of the fully hatched Moosh-Moosh characters. If you’re looking for plush toys with the softest feel, the cutest faces, and built-in personalities, you’ve come to the right place.

Pink Thing of The Day: Winged Pig Unicorn

This Pink Winged Pig Unicorn (Unipig? Pigicorn?) was spotted inside one of the themed-rooms at midtown’s sweetest attraction, The Candytopia. If memory serves, I recall that this room, located towards the end of the exhibit, is the one where enthusiastic-but-misguided docents threw a cup of paper confetti in my face as I walked through the entrance, completely obliterating the only-half-drunk cocktail in my hand. Huge bummer.

When you were a kid, did you collect Beanie Babies? I never did, because they were invented when I was well into adulthood, but I still have a small collection of them because people have been giving them to me as gifts for over thirty years. Why, I have no idea. My point is that I have no ocassion to really think of Beanie Babies and their many spin-off plush friends unless I am attending a NY Now gift show, and then I enjoy spending a few minutes in the Ty booth checking out all their crazy new plushies that have huge, oversized  eyes like those paintings by this artist. They all look like they are on acid, which I find creepy. Of course I could not resist snapping a pic of this gigantic, round and very Pink Unicorn. Because, Pink Thing.

Pink Thing Of The Day: Pink Bus in Front of Javits Center

I had to act fast to snap this photo of a cool Pink Bus as it was about to make a right turn onto 11th Avenue in front of the Javits Convention Center. Doesn’t the pale pink color just pop when set against Javits‘ shimmery sea green glass façade? Super artsy! A little Googling reveals that Pretty Little Thing is an online store that sells what I would call Hoochie Mama outfits. The site also features a Pink Monday special where many items are discounted up to 80% off, so maybe pay them a visit if you need some ‘club clothes.’

Eye On Design: Crane Adorable Mini Unicorn Humidifier

When I was a kid, household appliances were not designed to also be cute, just because they were meant to be used by children. Specifically, I recall a humidifier that we had to have in the bedroom I shared with my brother when we were probably 3 and 4 years old respectively, because he suffered from asthma. That thing looked like a spacecraft from War of The Worlds — and while it might have relievedmy brother’s breathing difficulties, it was pure nightmare-fuel for me.

If only Crane humidifiers had existed in the sixties, my parent’s might have been inclined to purchase a model from their Adorable line — featuring, well, adorable animal-shaped, multi-function humidifiers — thus sparing my tender psyche from an enduring trauma. Because, seriously, how darn cute is a little pink Unicorn?
