But first: want to earn up to five free nights in Lisbon or Mexico City?

here's the plan

You worked hard enough this week. Let us plan your weekend…

  1. 1.

    If all that stood between you and a $28 billion inheritance was seven entitled, estranged family members, what would you do? Probably not what Becket Redfellow (Glen Powell) does in the new, under-the-radar black comedy How to Make a Killing. But we'll gladly go along for the fun ride as he does, especially when one of those family members is a comically pretentious artist (played by Internet Boyfriend Zach Woods). Plus, his sultry (read: manipulative) childhood friend (Margaret Qualley) has a few tricks up her sleeve. The “watchably weird” dark satire comes from the same director who gave us Aubrey Plaza as Emily the Criminal. Consider the popcorn buttered.

  2. 2.

    This simple, fashion week-approved styling trick is the shortcut to making any outfit look instantly cooler — and chances are high you already own everything you need to pull it off.

  3. 3.

    Curate the Most Millennial Playlist, starting with a new moody song (and video) from Lana Del Rey that explains, once and for all, why she changed the name of her forthcoming album (twice) and settled on Stove. Then add the latest dance bop from Lykke Li, who has blessed us with a single from her first album in four years.

  4. 4.

    Beanie off, beach hat on. This card can unlock up to five free nights at World of Hyatt hotels globally until Feb. 26, 2026. Your out-of-office is already writing itself.*

  5. 5.

    Food snobs, cover your eyes. This well-known chain is going for a Michelin star — by reintroducing a beloved dish, with a new and improved recipe. At the risk of sounding cheesy, we love this for them.

Psst…For more dates worth knowing this week, check out the Skimm+ calendar.

My Non-Negotiables

Happy (almost) weekend. Dearest gentle reader, this author can confirm: Bridgerton has stolen my grip on reality. And after Benedict's “be my mistress” audacity? I require answers. With just six more days until the second half of season four comes out, I find myself with the rarest of NYC jewels: a weekend with no plans. So, with nothing on the calendar, I'll be…
