Heat. Heat.
Heat.
Heat.
Good morning. Happy Vlogmas day two. I
just got back up from the gym and it is
the most gloomy day ever. Oh, it's
raining. Darn. It was supposed to snow
today, you guys. There was a 95% chance
of snow. I was like, how perfect for
Vlogmas, but it's looking like rain at
the moment. Sad. But I'm happy because
my blowout lasted through the night. I
just sleep with my hair up like in like
a bun situation and it's like this. And
I just worked out. Like, are we kidding?
And I'm tan. So, I'm just feeling good.
You know, we're off to a good start. I
put Last night was the night I had to
switch my aligners for Invisalign. So,
they're like a little bit tighter and I
feel like my voice is a little bit
different on those days where I change
it up. So, sorry if my voice sounds a
little different. I should I I need to
stop pointing it out, but the vibes are
immaculate in here regardless. And I
actually have a friend coming to stay
with Ryan and I this week. She's a
friend of Ryan and I. She's here doing I
need to ask you exactly what it is, but
I think it's like a rotation for vet
school. She's at vet school at UG
actually, but she's here doing something
for veterinary school for like a week.
So, she's staying with us tonight and
tomorrow night. So, I had Ryan help me
this morning bring like move the desk,
pull the Murphy bed down. I wanted to
make this the full hotel Danielle and
Ryan experience. So, I'm going to make
the bed. We're just going to make it
nice and cute here. I'm actually going
to be gone when she gets here cuz I have
to do something. So, I just want it to
be nice and cute when she walks in. And
then I'm taking her to a movie premiere
tonight. We're going to the world
premiere for Oh, what fun, which is a
Christmas movie or like a holiday movie.
And there's a red carpet and everything.
And I was like, this would be so fun to
bring her to. Also like a fun festive
thing. I love a Christmas movie. It's a
Prime Video movie. Michelle Fefeifer's
in it. Eva Longoria and I think they're
going to be there. So, it's going to be
really fun. And I think I know what I'm
wearing. So, I'm excited. So, yeah.
Let's get set up for Miss Michaela. I
recently got a second set of sheets
because we've had like I feel like when
we do have guests there there's like
another one a couple days later, which
like isn't normal, but that's how it's
been working out because my brother is
coming to stay with us this weekend. So,
I have a pair another pair of sheets
that just makes it easier cuz Michaela
leaves Thursday and Freddy comes Friday.
If I don't get around to like washing
the sheets, it's okay. We have a second
set. This set, oh my god, this is from
Cozy Cozy Earth, I think. Oh my god,
this is so soft. And I actually love
this color. So, we're going to put these
on today from Miss Michaela.
Hey, so this is going to be such a
comfortable sleep. Like sometimes I want
to get like a throw pillow just for
decoration. I'm like I don't have
storage for it. Like I basically put all
this stuff in these drawers, but there
is no room when everything's in there.
So, but like kind of a sleigh. I have
this blanket. if she gets cold. The one
thing that Ryan's parents told us that
we could benefit from is especially if
like two people are sleeping in here,
which actually Ryan's best friend and
his girlfriend are coming to stay with
us for New Year's Eve, so we should
probably do this sooner than later. But
like there's this gap here and sometimes
people like to have two pillows and like
that's like kind of scary. So if we got
two more pillows then you don't have to
worry. But since it's just Michaela, she
could like double up, I think. Oh my
god, these sheets are so soft. Okay, bed
is made. And then I just tidied up the
bathroom. I need to get her a fresh
towel to put in here. I'll just never
get over the Murphy bed. Also, someone
gave us an idea to put artwork, like
hang it up cuz this is like the wall to
hang something up there. So when you
pull it down, there's artwork. And I
love that idea. I'm also so happy I got
this because obviously this is Ryan's
closet so there's no room in there. But
if she wants to hang anything up, she
can. She could put like her shoes there,
anything like charging station. I mean,
this is so fun. In the new year, like
last year, if you guys remember in
January, I think it was, I like
organized every single part of our of my
apartment. And I want to do that again
this January, February, of like just
really like, you know, making this more
whole. like maybe maybe getting a piece
of work here. Even though I film a lot
of videos in front of this, so it's
really helpful for it to be plain, but
like really just finishing the whole
apartment up. So, more to come in the
new year. Vlogmas day one is up. Feels
like Christmas wig. And I just heated up
a bowl of chili I'm going to have for
lunch and get excited and read all of
your comments. It's a real caffeine kind
of day. I think I'm going to do a half
calf ice latte. So, one shot of real
espresso, one shot of decaf. So, this is
Yeah, we're going to do not intensity
five. Do intensity three for the
caffeinated. Do a bigger boy today.
Gosh, this just makes me too happy.
Should we play a song? Hey,
I haven't used this in a while. I've
only used this like twice. This is the
vanilla cold foam. Let's just like do it
up. Why not? It's Vlogmas after all.
Wow,
that's a dessert. But isn't she
gorgeous? Wow. It's time to do the
makeup. You guys already know I bought
this light so I have optimal lighting
and it's just wow. You have to get
adjusted, but like it's also really good
when I make Tik Toks in here. I have
this on my Amazon as like my filming
setup or mirror makeup light. I don't
even know what I called it. But we're
going to do my makeup. I'll check back
in after. Makeup is done. I can't
believe like I have not touched my hair
with a hair tool today. Crazy. I have
some content I'm going to film for like
branded stuff. So, I'm going to do that
now. This is the little outfit I'm
wearing right now. How cute is this? A
little HSAsa top and then my favorite
silk pants from Vince. The caffeine
hasn't hit me yet, you guys. What the
heck? I actually thought it'd be a
little interesting to show you guys a
little BTS. So, I'm sitting here for the
video I'm about to film and I want to
use the back camera on my phone, but
like and I do have a monitor somewhere.
I just don't know where it is right now.
So, I keep like sitting there filming
and then checking it to see if I got
myself in the shot and if I like the
angle. So, let's see if I Yeah, that's
cute. Perfect.
Okay, here I go. How cute are the vibes,
by the way? So, I just finished filming
all the things I needed to get done, and
I wore this for one of the videos I was
doing. How cute is this? So, like I
said, Hotel Danielle and Ryan booked up
this week. I've got my friend Michaela
coming later today, and then on Friday,
my brother and his best friend are
coming to stay with Ryan and I. So,
we've got a turnover service. Like,
everything's happening. Very, very
excited for them to come. So, naturally,
as a big sister, it's my duty to make an
itinerary or just like help plan this
weekend. My brother just wanted to come
with his friend to show him New York
during Christmas time. And he was asking
me if I knew of anything going on this
weekend. What are the vibes? So, I'm
actually on SeatGeek right now on the
app because this is where I find out
what's going on in New York. Cuz I hate
when it's like, "Oh my gosh, I didn't
even realize Tate McCrae was here last
week." Like, big miss, you know? You can
get Broadway show tickets on here.
Concert tickets shows you what's going
on nearby. I can't go because I have
something else, but I see that Jingle
Ball is next weekend, which is so fun. I
love Jingle Ball so much. And like I
didn't know when it was, but now that
I'm on this app. So, I want to say a
huge thank you to Segeek for sponsoring
this video. Segeek is the go-to for
concert tickets, game tickets, all the
things. There are more than 70,000
events listed on Segeek, so you're bound
to find something that you like. And I
feel like there's so many artists on
tour right now like Hollyy, Jonas
Brothers, like so many people. And then
there's obviously artists that have
announced tours like Cardi B, Demi
Lovado. I know Chris Stapleton's doing a
tour. Morgan Wallen, I think next year.
So you got to stay up to date on Segeek.
Oh my gosh, I found the perfect event
for Pretty Friend. I know for a fact
that they are huge fans of Whiskey
Meyers and Whiskey Myers is coming to
the Brooklyn Paramount this Saturday. I
think I need to tell Freddy. Like
they're huge Whiskey Myers fans. Oh my
gosh, I'm so proud of myself. Segeek
also has your back because each ticket
is rated on scale of 1 to 10. 10 being
like a really good deal. Plus, every
ticket is backed by their buyer
guarantee. I feel like tickets are the
perfect gift to give to somebody. So,
with the holiday season coming up, I
feel like the gift of tickets is
perfect. And if you use my code Danielle
10, that'll get you 10% off your
SeatGeek order. That's 10% off your
tickets with code Danielle 10. If you
use the link in the description that I
put, it'll automatically add the code to
your account. So, whenever you go to
order, Danielle 10 will be on there.
Thank you again to CG for sponsoring
this video. And I'm going to text my
brother right now. Okay, I'm going to
spend a little time drink my coffee. The
caffeine is definitely starting to hit
now. And I'm going to edit those videos
that I just filmed. And then in about an
hour, my friend Collier is coming here
to drop off some artwork that I
commissioned for her to make for Ryan
and I that Ryan has no idea about. And
I'm so excited for you guys to see.
Okay, I'm just about done editing, but I
wanted to kind of give you guys a little
summary before a caller gets here. So, I
have been wanting a piece of art for the
apartment. One, that's sentimental. Two,
that has a little color cuz you guys
know I'm a very neutral girly, but I
love color. And I think it was one of
you guys that commented like, "What if
you did a pop of red?" Cuz I love red. I
think that's perfect. And then I was
like, "Hm, this wall right here is very
plain. it could bring some color to the
room. So, I reached out to Collier
because she does such cool pieces for
restaurants, people, brands, like the
coolest stuff. And I told her, I was
like, I don't I I want your help. And
she was like so down immediately. And I
was like, I just have this vision of
like a big red apple because obviously
red color, but also the big apple. Ryan
and I live in New York. And I wanted it
to be something really cute for me and
Ryan. Like kind of me and Ryan, like
kind of like Ryan and I's favorite
things in New York. She does these
pieces for other people. I've seen her
do them for she did one for Hi
Bachelder. She did one for her
boyfriend. She's done them for other
people like and it's so so cute. And I
was like, "Yeah, we need one." So Brian
has absolutely no idea that I even have
been talking to Collier about this, but
we basically have been collaborating on
the last few months of like, you know,
what would make sense to be on the
artwork. I had initially I had this
vision of the apple in the middle and
then like a ton of things around it and
then kind of going back and forth with
her and she was just like so creative. I
think we ended up do you'll see, but it
has a ton of Ryan and I's favorite New
York City spots and things. I'm so
excited. Brian literally has no idea.
So, she's on her way over right now to
show me the artwork in person. She
showed it to me like in I've seen so
many photos and videos and stuff, but
she's so sweet and she wanted to hand
deliver the artwork. So, very, very
excited. So, that'll go right on that
wall, I think. I mean, I guess I could
totally do a switch up once I see it in
person, but I think it'll be a you know,
you'll see it a lot like if we're in
here. The other option we had talked
about was doing it like on this wall,
but I'm not sure because I actually just
ordered on Framebridge two black and
white photos of Ryan and I on our
birthday party. Like black and white
really cool flash photos and I got them
framed in black frames and I even got
photo lights to go over it. And I don't
know exactly. I also thought about
putting the frames here cuz it's just so
plain here. So, the frames will either
go there or could also do on this wall,
but I'm realizing I don't know, beachy
vibes with that. We'll see. We'll see.
But very excited about that as well.
Collier said she's pulling up. I'm so
excited. I've got Spotify on the TV
playing some music,
guys. She just got here and she wrapped
it. Oh, yeah. And apparently there's a
second one that they accidentally made,
right? Say hi to my vlog.
>> Look how cute. so excited. She posted a
video with like hints. The hints were
like so good. She was like, "Guess who
I'm making artwork for?" I freaked out.
>> They were such good, very specific
hints. Anyways,
>> I'm so excited. Thank you so much. Oh,
but yeah. So, they accidentally gave her
two and they were like, "You
>> That one didn't get the wrapping cuz it
came later."
>> No, that one came later. And also, you
do not need to wrap two. I couldn't even
believe you wrapped one. And the second
one I'm going to send to Tampa and put
it in my room there.
>> Yeah.
>> Okay, guys. Here it is. is and Collier
is going to talk us through it. Okay, so
originally like Danielle wanted to do
this like apple theme here in the
middle. So it was originally like a big
apple here and then icons around it and
then I got to the end and I really just
felt like it was kind of missing
something and she really wanted to have
this kind of vintage wornin look. So, I
found this vintage postcard, which is
where I got kind of this idea from. And
then from there, I just kind of started
building it out around that. And I think
it really just came together. And then I
ended up switching the apple to like a
different orientation so it could really
land in that corner. And yeah,
>> I love how it came out. And then
obviously we have the bulldog for
American whiskey.
>> Like that's the Georgia bar right there.
And it's perfect cuz we didn't want like
just American whiskey signs. That's like
a perfect detail.
>> It's a little anecdote. And then the
girl gals on the go taxi. So cute.
>> I love it.
>> The apple which we did like the ihe
heart in New York and I think that's
actually cute. And then I did it so it
looks like it's like bitten or whatever.
>> Comedy seller they love
>> obviously. And this is the cutest sign
that they have cuz like the other one is
like colorful and weird glass.
>> Yeah. It's just like not it. And you
were like I think this is the better
one.
>> And then I wanted to do cuz this is like
greetings from their New York. So I
wanted to do a little part that kind of
tied into all of the places that they
have lived before. So, we have all of
the keys that represent all of the
neighborhoods that they had lived in.
And I just kind of wanted to, you know,
tie it all in. This is like the abode
keychain. So, I just I love them. I
think they're so cute.
>> Oh, yeah. Cuz we live in Soho right now.
But then we've got village meat packing.
>> Yeah. And then if you see tiny tiny and
cursive is like the actual random
>> Oh, I didn't see that before. You're so
sneaky.
>> You'll just find a lot of things as you
keep looking.
We've got Ryan's cowboy boots which on
the heel you'll see his initials and
then Danielle's hat which has
>> her little initials and then this I
asked Danielle if we could do so I
always see on her Instagram they have
you know they do the Polaroid photo
every
>> so I literally she sent me like a clip
from her video of one of the Polaroids
and I I literally redrrew it so
>> like actual but it looks like you guys
>> I thought it was an actual photo in. No.
>> And she was like, "No, I drew that." I'm
like, "Oh, I literally thought it was
the photo."
>> Yeah. So, there's that. And then I
stalked the photographer to find the
actual camera that he used to take that.
So, that's his actual camera and model.
>> Sick.
>> Yeah. We have their favorite bagel. I
feel like this kind of makes it more,
you know, too. We've got Leon's shout
out if they see this.
>> Leon's bagels. We love you.
>> We've got the pool. I actually feel like
this makes it a little fun, too, with
the color. But you see, there's a tiny
detail here. It says Orion's like
billiard's club because he's on like a
pool team and plays pool at like every
bar in New York. So, this is his thing.
And then we've got the bodega flowers
that he would always get Danielle. And I
thought that was just a really cute way
to tie in the both of them. That's why
all these things were kind of I wanted
it to be
>> things that have to do with both of us
kind of.
>> Yeah. And then we've got the postcard.
>> And then there's the one other thing.
>> Yeah. She brought a freaking surprise
for me. I'm like, "Wait, this was
already enough."
>> Because in the end, we ended up
changing, you know, five a little bit.
>> I found Okay. I actually remade the
original postcard, the vintage one.
>> So cute.
>> Kind of inspired. Yeah. And so we did
Danielle and Ryan's New York City and
the front I did like a glossy and then
the back is matte. So you can literally
pop these in the mail.
>> Can literally mail things out.
>> So yeah, that's that's where
>> I love it.
>> I'll send you the original so you can
literally see the inside.
>> Yeah. A little comparison. Well, it's
perfect. Wait, can I have you hold it up
on this wall again? We were kind of
playing around with it to see what it
looks like.
>> You You did it great last time.
>> We're doing short form and long form.
So,
>> of course,
>> it looks so good. It actually ties in
like my darker kitchen, but then like
pops. It's just It's so needed for this
look.
>> Yeah. We did this like really nice
linen, which Danielle, I didn't even
realize. The linen on the side.
>> Yeah, the linen like really ties to
this.
>> Oh my god, it does. So that's actually
perfect. It's a cute little detail.
Collier's all about detail.
>> Yes.
>> Wait, can you shout out your Instagram
name?
>> Yeah, my Instagram is @ Collier Barkale.
I do a lot of, you know, illustration,
oil painting, creative consulting,
really all down the line, but this is
kind of my bread and butter. Um, these
illustration pieces. I think they're so
fun and so special. They're all about,
you know, like celebrating moments and
times like pieces you'll have forever.
So yeah.
>> A thank you so much.
>> Of course, you guys. I can't wait for
Ryan to see the artwork later. But for
now, I popped on my rain boots and we're
going to head on a little venue tour,
which feels so cool to say. I'm hosting
an event with a brand that I'm obsessed
with and I'm really, really excited. And
they want me to do a little like
walkthrough to see the space, kind of
decide like what furniture is going to
be in the room. And I don't know, I've
never done anything like this and I'm so
honored. So, we're going to go do that.
While I'm gone, Michaela is going to be
here. She's going to let herself into
the apartment. But yeah, I'm going to
rush back, change, and then Michaela and
I will go to the event together. So, I'm
going to get my umbrella.
Here we go. Okay, that was a really
quick In-N-Out situation because they
had an event happening tonight where we
were touring, but it's perfect. It's so
cool. I'm basically hosting a holiday
party, so I'm very excited about it. But
now I literally need to rush back to
Soho and change and eat something. And
my Uber is far. And it actually is going
to be quicker to Uber, my map says, than
to Subway, which I really hope that's
correct because I don't really have room
for error because if I want to be able
to walk the red carpet, you got to get
there at 6:00 because basically they let
like influencers walk the red carpet and
then like the actual actors and
directors and those people, the
important people. Oh boy. Here we go.
>> Hey guys, Michaela's here. We're ready.
Bag. Where's the dress from? It's so
cute.
>> My dress is from South Moon Under. Have
you heard? Yes.
>> Yes. There's one in Maryland. Mer She's
Maryland girly.
>> Yes. I don't know where my heels are
from. No need. All good. We're both
wearing like little black kitten heels
or not sling back. I don't know. Words
are hard for me right now. But we're
changed. Ready to go. Oh, what fun.
That's what we're going to see. Oh, what
fun. Let's Let's go.
We're at Lincoln Center. It's somewhere
here. Wow, this is beautiful. We are
arriving now. We see bright lights,
which looks like a carpet. Oh, yeah. Oh,
it's like Christmassy. Okay, we have I
know. So, wait, I've totally been here
before. This is cool.
just washed the carpet with Invisalign 8
in and everything. I was like, here I am
just out here and Michaela's the best
and took some really cool beaches. But
that was funny because I was telling
Malo sometimes it's really humbling
where like they're like I don't know
this girl like I'm not going to take any
photos but honestly I think there were
like seven or eight different
photographers that like said Danielle
Danielle which was fun cuz cuz my name
is on a sign by the way because they
know my name for sure. For sure. But it
was fun.
And now it's time to get our tickets
guys. How cute. They put little Voss
waters and then I'm hoping there's like
cookies or a snack in there. A nice
little goodie. But yeah, every chair has
a goodie bag. And here we are.
Goodie bag. Heck yeah. Got popcorn and
M&M's. Honestly, two of my favorite
movie snacks. So, I am not mad about it.
We are back now. Here's little Ryan
>> sitting with the gingerbread. Guys, the
movie was absolutely incredible. It made
me want to talk to my mom. I love you.
And I did. It was hilarious. But it's
all about like how moms go kind of
unnoticed during the holidays and just
like in general like you know they get
overlooked. You know it's not all the
time but a lot of times it's the mom
who's kind of trying to like keep the
family together, do all the traditions
every year and obviously in every family
it's different but it was so well done
and like a lot of the cast were there
and it was a great movie. So that was
that. Ryan, have you been in our bedroom
tonight?
>> I walked in there.
>> Did you look at anything?
>> No. I have a little surprise for you.
Hey, Michaela. I already told Michaela
about it. So, you didn't see anything in
there like a big frame or anything?
>> No.
>> Really?
>> She just didn't notice.
>> Oh my god. I have to show you something.
Okay. I'm going to show I'll just film
it like this. Actually, no peeking. You
don't see it, do you? Okay.
>> I feel like I know what it is.
>> How could you know what it is? It's not
the framed. It's not the framed.
>> It's not. Okay. No idea what it is.
>> Okay. So, a couple months ago, I reached
out to Collier Collier. She makes
incredible art and I was like, we need a
piece of art for right there that like
represents us. You're so excited. So,
she made us a custom art piece. Are you
ready?
>> I'm so ready. Oh, wow. This is awesome.
Wow. This is really cool.
>> Greetings from Danielle and Ryan's New
York City. We've got, do you see that?
Says Ryan's Billyards Club. See, could
you play pool?
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
>> The bodega flowers. You get me? Look,

even use photo. She drew that. Wow,
that's really thoughtful.

neighborhood we've lived in

>> Got East Village
comedy salaries.
Look at the football.
>> Wow.

>> This is so cool.
>> The detail. And then an apple for the
big apple.
>> Thank you, Collier.
>> She did such a good job. She drew this.
>> Wow.
>> I know. And I thought it could go right
there.
>> That's perfect.
>> Do you like it?
>> Oh, and the bagel, of course. That's
Leon's.
>> This is so cool.
>> I know. I love it so much. And it's the
perfect amount of like It adds color
>> to the apartment, but not too much
color.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Amazing.
>> Yay. Okay, let me hold it up so you can
see. I've already done this. This is
what it'll look like. Or we could
honestly cover up the light switch cuz I
don't know what the light switch is.
>> What? We don't have We don't have any
idea where the light switch is. No, it
looks so good. Guys, we ordered Chinese
food. Sorry. Part of staying here is you
have to be on camera all the time. Don't
you love it? I love it. We got three
times because my favorite Hunan Beastro
was close, but I've had three times many
times.
>> More than three. More than three,
actually. And we got all kinds of
things. We both were like, I'm hungry.
And then we both were thinking Asian
food. And we landed on Chinese. And I'm
really happy about our decision. This is
super exciting. Got some tofu. Wo, those
are your mine.
>> Yeah. Yum. Oh, guys, this is just I'm so
hungry.
>> A fork, knife, spoon. What do you need?
>> Fork. Just a fork. Is this
