I have been calling Gregory... Littley Littley for years. His digital handles all spell it out this way and most recently I saw a cute hat on his Instagram handle rocking "Littley Littley" so I don't stand alone on loving his social handle's name. Gregory and I met ages ago through the business. When we met, we became social media buddies right away. Greg has this energy and aura that just radiates on and off social. He has an incredible work ethic which does not go unnoticed. I am thrilled to close this year with our last Muse of the Week/Month featuring a BOY #boysinboymeetsgirl. Throughout the years guys have been wanting to steal our girls' style so we decided to let them join in. :) I am excited for you all to get to know Littley Littley more below. Thank you Gregory for being our Muse of the Week and for being so cool! P.S. The shower is where I come up with a lot ideas too and often talk about in my interviews. Read more below on this awesome muse.

1. Are you a subway or car (via, uber, lyft) boy?
I’m a mix - Subway & Lyft rides :).
2. Favorite spot to be creative?
This may sound pretty basic, but a nice long hot shower gets my mind working in a really unique way. I can dream up, create, just let my mind wander…for 10 uninterrupted minutes.
3. Causes you advocate for?
Over the past few years I’ve definitely been more aware of injustices and I find myself becoming more and more involved with the Ally Coalition.
They mobilize a community of allies that aid and encourage artists and people from every walk of life, to use their voices and influence to end discrimination against LGBTQ people. Rachel and Jack Antonoff have done a lot with the organization. I always look for to their holiday fund raising talent show. http://theallycoalition.org/
4. Favorite quote?
With all that’s going on in the world, I hold these words close :) "When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping." To this day, especially in times of "disaster," I remember my mother's words and I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers – so many caring people in this world." - Mister Rogers
5. Tell us about the last moment you shared with someone?
I’m in a pretty great relationship and we recently had an in-depth chat about our values and life goals. It was refreshing to learn that we are so very aligned, and at at the same time still very independent and driven in our own ways. That moment was important to me - it gave me a lot of hope just made me very excited about our future together.
