MOVING. Hi everyone, just wanted you to know that I’m alive, even though the past two weeks has been stressful as hell. The amazing sublet me and my boyfriend had found fell through which resulted in a lot of last minute living arrangements.
Meaning, in the past 13 days I have moved 10 times (!!) which is why I haven’t updated in a while, finding a longterm apartment/hotel in a somewhat reasonable price range during fashion week is almost impossible!

Anyway, snapped these pictures at one of the apartments in Brooklyn, the place was really cool even tough it had a huge hole in the bathroom wall instead of a door.. (we ended up checking in to a hotel that night and the search continued).
Now it looks like we’ve finally found an apartment in East Village for the rest of our stay which would make my life a lot easier so please keep your fingers crossed!!

    Claire: Haha I know! but it was pretty much the only thing that looked amazing, the place had holes in walls and in the floors (!) so we ended up at a hotel and searched for other apartments!

    Loving this location, that bath is just amazing and i like that the plaster on the wall has come away leaving the wood exposed.

    I feel for you. I’ve moved a lot while being in LA due to various reasons. I actually am moving again next Saturday ahhh! Well I hope it works for me this time especially since I don’t have a car which royally sucks. LA and no car=no bueno. Still it has to be 10X harder in NYC I’d think at least here I can find rooms for 550 albeit not in the best of neighborhoods *sigh*. Good luck in your moving and by the way the photo is fantastic.

    This poncho is super cute. I am loving how different designers are coming out with their own version of ponchos. Before I read this was from Zara, I had guessed that it was designed by leyendecker. I need to get one!
