homeless groupie

Shirt: UO, Plaid shirt: Thrifted, Leggings: AA, Jacket: sweetface

I'm finding that lately, I've been wearing the same pieces over and over and over and over again (saggy tee shirts, leather jacket, leggings, leopard print coat, plaids, etc) which means I either look like a) a groupie or b) a hobo. I need new clothes!

Oh, and I picked up a new nailpolish color during my daily kmart run the other day (I have quite literally gone to kmart every. single. day. for the last week). It's like a purple-y blackish gunmetal-ish color. On top of all that, the color was called "chinatown". How could I ever resist?

today

11:00 am: class

3:00 pm: take-out lunch at a local grocery store

6:00 pm: smoothie craving control at cosi

layers

The temperature has finally cooled down enough to deem layers slightly less inappropriate (mid 60s).

Woke up this morning at 7:00 and reached for the first things that came to sight. I hate 8 clock class. Ughhhhhh.





coat, scarf: zara, sweater: aa, jeans: m x mj, shirt: UO, belt: thrifted

So tired. need nap.

Anybody going to fashion's night out today? Shit's going to be crazyyy.

restaurant highlight: Spice

Sorry for the lack up outfit updates, but truthfully I've been SO lazy when it comes to dressing up lately. I've been wearing the same denim cutoffs EVERYDAY, literally. 8 am classes = apathy. I'll get back into the swing of things soon, hopefully.

Meanwhile, I've been doing a lot of exploring in the city, especially when it comes to restaurants. There are SO many cheap + delicious places to eat around here, its kind of amazing. I thought I would start highlighting some choice places to eat in NYC. Let me know if this should be a regular thing, or if I should just stick to style/fashion haha.

Anyway, I went to a little thai restaurant called Spice (E 10th and 4th ave) today that's located literally a block from my dorm.



indoor waterfall

lunch specials = AMAZINGLY CHEAP, AMAZINGLY WORTH IT



Thai Ice Tea

Shrimp Fritters, sosososo good.

My lunch = 2 orders of summer rolls (appetizers) + seafood rice with this brown curry gravy sauce (all for $9)

Friend's drunken noodle

But...the best part?

amazing.

Verdict?: Definitely wasn't the BEST thai food I've ever had, but super super (yes, 2 supers) worth it for the price.

Regular outfit posting will commence soon.

bag

So I finally gave in and bought the knox bag that I was talking about a couple posts ago, but in white. I was aiming for black, but I figured that I had SO many black bags already, a white bag wouldn't hurt. It was ridiculously cheap in ebay, so I snatched it up without thinking. Thankfully, I have no regrets :) The leather is supersoft, and the hardware is pretty amazing. It's a little bit heavy, but what leather bag isn't?





ridiculously soft scarf from zara, college ID that I look god awful in + keys, Nars Lipstick in Shanghai Express, Raybans, Cinnamon gum (i'm one of like, two people in the world that actually enjoy cinnamon gum), Hello Kitty compact mirror (from way back when), moleskine planner, pen, old crappy wallet (pleather + cow print anyone?), iphone.

P.S. Huge thank you to the reader who reminded me to update my "about me" :) Haha I completely forgot.

blogger meetup

Hung out with the awesome Mer from Merkovsky the other day, since we happen to go to the same school and all now. We talked about a whole range of things that only bloggers could talk about (finally! somebody that understands haha). Checked out the barney's warehouse sale together, and decided to get brick oven pizza. I walked out empty handed, but she came out with an awesome pair of ksubi jeans for like, $40. Crazy.

new york brick oven flatbread pizza = the best.


Mer's gorgeous lanvin flats

my new favorite scarf from zara. SO SOFT. + an assortment of random jewelry + t by a wang tank.

any other bloggers in NYC? :) Let me know!
