Is it just me or did this weekend (or even past week) seem like NYC was literally put on "pause" for a few days. Everything was just so quiet, empty, and dark. I've never been so grateful for lights and crowded streets - the mindset of a true New Yorker. The other day I was checking out ASOS's newest campaign with muse Charlotte Free. I wanted to share something I heard her say because for some reason it really stuck out to me. She was discussing fashion and said, "its the last art form that has so many possibilities.. everything's been painted, everything's been sculpted, but fashion.. you can really make anything of yourself." Some people will never understand why we love fashion so much, and don't see it as an art-form like I do.

UES

Wearing: IRO Jacket | Equipment Blouse | ASOS Jeans | Rachel Roy Loafers  

Been spending a little too much time uptown recently because of the blackout, but I honestly can't complain. It's so beautiful up here by the park - and the shopping isn't too bad either. I feel pretty helpless though and like I should be doing more than just sitting around waiting for Con Ed to get their act together - hopefully by tomorrow night we'll have our power back. I went downtown to my apartment this morning and uy, it was a whole new world down there. Empty streets, nothing is open, pitch black everywhere... kinda scary. So proud of everyone for staying strong though, go us. 


Cole Haan Style Corner: 2


Ah, Meatpacking District… The times we’ve had - at 11 am on a quick shopping venture, and at 3 in the morning after a “night out.” I’ve recently become acquainted with knee high boots, and the Nola Slouch Boots to me, are a modern take of Elvis Presley’s blue suede shoes (Cole Haan style). You can find me strutting in these babies to the grill at the Standard Hotel or Catch Rooftop on a Monday night.
