It’s that time of year, where Christmas trees are kicked to the curb (literally), buttoning your baggy jeans feels like a challenge, and we all look back on what we did and (often times didn’t) do the previous year.

So, while it’s easy to think enough already, it’s also sort of fun to jump on the 2015 bandwagon. Can you blame us? This week, we’ll be sharing our favorite Opening Ceremony memories in food, fashion, art, music, and culture.
