Glimmer & shine on the Brooklyn Bridge

Shine on Hey there, This is a throwback post to that time when Rashad and I were freezing just to take these shots! It was springtime in NYC and still very very cold. We worked through the pain and ended up getting some classic nighttime photos on the Brooklyn Bridge. To see more, click here. On a separate note, I discovered this lovely shiny mini dress with a coral base and multi-color glimmer. I paired these with my brown knee high boots. Let me know what you think of this

Midnight memories from the Brooklyn Bridge Hey darlings, I've been missing NYC lately since I've been away due to my initial study abroad plans and now COVID-19.

For now, though, I wanted to share with you these lovely photos Rashad and I took on the Brooklyn Bridge a little over a year ago. Such a nice memory!!

Hot Cocoa Hunter in LIC

Location: Indie Cafe, LIC Anyone who knows me knows how obsessed I am with hot cocoa and how I can basically drink it any time of the year. Summer is no exception to that! While I was living in LIC this past summer, I randomly had an intense hot cocoa craving one afternoon and decided to go to this nearby cafe called Indie. This cafe was great because of its aesthetic, service level, diverse food options, natural light, etc. #cafes #nyc

My Summer Sublease in LIC

Sunlight, railroads, and all-white interiors This summer I had the pleasure of staying in the city and working in real estate full time with my brokerage firm. Because there were no classes going on, I had to find a short summer lease in an apartment as opposed to staying in the dorms. I never imagined that I would live in Queens because i wasn't very familiar with that borough. However, after doing a deep apartment search, I found myself an amazing deal for a studio in Long

Add this location to your NYC travel list!

Opened in spring 2019, Hudson Yards is a new development site located on the westside, in between Chelsea and Hell's Kitchen. This new neighborhood consists of an indoor shopping mall, a creative architectural centerpiece, and multiple residences. It's crazy to think that Hudson Yards was just opened a few months ago and will continue to build more sites. Just recently, my friend and I finally went to go visit the site. Primarily, we went to go see The Vessel and watch the su

Highlights from Naeem Khan's FW'19 Collection

My experience at NYFW: The Shows Last week, I got invited to attend Naeem Khan's Fall/Winter 2019 fashion show at Spring Studios. Naeem Khan is an Indian fashion designer known for creating ornate gowns and pieces. He has dressed figures, such as, Michelle Obama, Beyoncé, and Kate Middleton. A few hours prior to the event, I had to do a quick 30 minute shopping spree as I was in need of an outfit for it. I managed to pull together a look and ended up wearing a black mini dres

7 Reasons to Love Valentine's Day

LIVE LOVE AND LAUGH, ALWAYS To be a "lover", in my opinion, means to simply be human. We all define the term "love" in our own ways as we journey through life. Though, in the past, many people associate Valentine's Day with being a day dedicated to celebrating romantic relationships, I am a supporter of having Valentine's Day be an extra reminder that universal love should always be celebrated. Universal love is the kind that can be defined and experienced by all types of ear
