crushing on kate

I want to live in a kate spade store.

dirty little style secret

I have a secret. I know one must follow certain fashion etiquette and invest in quality pieces however I have found something so ridiculously trendy and disposable, I can't stay away. conway on 34th and 7th ave in nyc is my secret spot. everything is "inspired" by what's in major stores yet nothing is over $20. my spring flats which are strappy gold with silver rockstar studs were $4.99!??!? let's not mention it again. that said, if you're in nyc and need a new wardrobe or a quick fashion pick me up, conway is a must see.

under my umbrella. ella. ella.

on a rainy day in nyc (which happens to be today), one must own a very sturdy and stylish umbrella to make the many block-walk to the subway station bearable. more often than not, we youngsters and/or urban commuters have a couple of cheapie umbrellas to make due. this results in a busted, pathetic brolly that usually ends up in the corner wastebasket and a disgruntled ny-er who is left soaking wet. I say enough already! let's grow up and give our rainy day women a proper brolly to work with. if u have the bux to spend, burberry is tops. for major rain coverage at a spend-thrift price, this totes golf umbrella is perfect! and if something girly is more your thing, this hello kitty umbrella takes the cake!

love drunk

not too long ago, I produced this masspike miles ft. rick ross "love drunk" music video for famed hip-hop director dan "the man" melamid. the vid recently released on mtv and rising up the charts is fire. literally. while we were shooting, a gas station caught fire by our street location and we were able to capture the intense scene for ourselves.

superchic supertrash

mix a structured rachel bilson with a 4 am wasted kesha stumbling out of the soho grand and you have supertrash. a european women’s line based out of amsterdam (no wonder I'm high off their style) that recently launched in the US during this past new york fashion week. a ton of stars have already been spotted rocking the brand from victoria beckham to stephanie pratt, paris hilton and many more. get yours here.

bootights

are the boots? are they tights? yes! they're both!! met this super cool chickie at sundance who made the very cool fashion item, bootights which are tights designed exclusively for wearing boots. they are clever, and cozy and comy and cute. since boots are de riguer for the urban fashion set, this is a must have item for the sock drawer.

hair there.

in anticipation of the big sundance trip, I've decided to go loooong. and by long, I mean add extensions and about seven inches of length to my hair. after a short search on facebook, my roomie and hair stylist extraordinaire, meg d. of salon V fame in the east village on 7th and ave A. came to the rescue. we bought the hair and the locks st hairlocks.com and went to work. meg slaved over my head for five hours?!?! adding 200 individual pieces to my head. if you're in nyc and thinking of extensions or even not in nyc but need a professional that does a bang-up job, holler at meg d. she'll hook a sister up.
