A good place to stop, rest, and get drunk on sangria. 
Appropriate that I can't remember the name of the place...

NY fashion week begins soon so here's a little reminder of what it was like last season in September. I don't know if I'm committing the biggest blogger faux pas by doing such an immense 'throwback' post but (oh well) here goes. Filled with many of the city and its iconic cabs, frolics in Bryant Park, our new favourite place for coffee and bluegrass jams: The Randolph, familiar faces in foreign places, looks of contempt while waiting for a sandwich, a sprinkle of Harry Potter reference, and of course, avocado toast.

Upon waiting for a friend to meet us at Max Brenner's, Stevy and I found ourselves having time to walk around the block and take some pictures with those fun Citi bikes New York now has to offer. Outfit of choice included a muscle tank from Brandy Melville with full Mean Girls effect included, pastel pink pyjama shorts, my mom's floral Gucci purse, and my stark white creepers. Ray Bans and vintage Madonna jacket again as circulars. And after a completely saccharine lunch due to a chocolate pizza, I went from rolling around a bicycle to swinging from a bellhop's cart at the hotel. Natural transition, I'd say.

Going way back to fashion month in New York when we took a trip to the Lincoln Centre on the last day of fashion week and decided to take the opportunity of its barren landscape to snap a few photos. Worn were the silkiest of Valentino's blouses along with a clutch by Chloé that fully embodies a floral pastel painting and colours of a Fabergé easter egg - all rolled into one. Both those over the top pieces paired with a 3rd, my building block Chanel Mary Jane's, begged for frayed denim shorts and classic wayfarers to loosen the outfit up. An undone blouse also helps.
