New York through my eyes

New York is definitely a magnetic and magical city! Many of its magic has to do with the good willingness of its people. New Yorkers like to share and provide information to those who need it. I’ve been living in New York, on and off, for more than twenty five years and the people in this City never fail to amaze me. Today for instance, I visited a jewelry maker, he ended up not being able to help me nevertheless he spent about 45 mints with me sharing all kinds of insight information, showing me around his studio while explaning me the entire process of jewelry casting and providing me with other companies information who could help me. I’m extremely happy when I’m in New York City, something about it brings a smile to my face every time. I love to play a tourist here and take lots of pictures. Here are some of the latest I’ve taken. Enjoy and don’t forget to share!

Negin Mirsalehi: A unique style

If you have been on the popular page of Instagram then you have seen her pretty face many times. I came across Negin Mirsalehi that way as well and I’ve being following her ever since and then I found out she has a blog. In her blog which has her name, she is not afraid to share her beauty secrets with her readers and inspire us all with her everyday put together outfits. I love not only her sense of style where she combines high and low fashion effortlessly but also how pretty and sweet she looks in her pictures and in her interactions with her readers. Negin says that fashion is an expression of how she feels each day. “One day I wake up and I feel very feminine wearing a dress and the other day I love a distressed pair of jeans, an over-sized sweater and some biker boots. I also love mixing styles, so for instance feminine and edgy (I love to wear complete black outfits, so simple yet
sophisticated)”. She started her blog as a way to communicate better with her followers. Check it out!

The glasses and the bag.

Everything here is simply fabulous.

Humor for your weekend

Humor is the tendency of particular cognitive experiences to provoke laughter and provide amusement. Wikipedia. I choose to be silly whenever I can afford because sometimes that’s all you need to be happy. Life is composed of moments and if we fill them with lightness of heart and spirit everything looks and feels much better. It’s not always easy to do that but, it’s worth the try! I hope you have a fun and laughter-filled weekend!

Thanks for the laugh @miianinii and @daempressfifi

Instagram Crushe

If you have a Blackberry you are missing big time on the big party called Instagram. I’m an irreversible addict; I should confess. What? Facebook? oh… that ain’t feed ego! Instagram is like a labyrinth!, that I should warn you but, once you taste it you’re taken forever. I don’t remember how I came across Luisa Fernanda (@luisafere) but, I’m so glad I did! Not only does she have the most updated and fashionable wardrobe ever but, also the best Instagram gallery I’ve seen so far. If you don’t know Luisa you should and get inspired! You’ll see how she can teach a thing or two to many fashion bloggers?

Converse, leopard throw, a dog and the coolest air giraffe on a Sunday morning?

Instagram-tification and want awesome affordable shoes?

Don’t we all love finding great shoes at even greater prices? I found these Sam Edelman studded pumps at T.J.Max for like half the price that goes online. I love how studs are popping up everywhere in fashion lately. Glam Rocks!

Red Rooster in Harlem has recently been in every piece of print I’ve read lately, even Vogue, and we finally paid a visit this past weekend with a group of friends. The place has a very hip and young environment and the decor is pretty unique and different.

The weather couldn’t have been perfecter. We were lucky we were able to sit outside.

I love this dress. I decided to not just keep thinking one day I’ll dress like that! No! I want to do it now. Life is short and we’re not getting any younger so to all of you who are like me and admire people who dress modern and young with an edge, just try it!

This is the view from the playground I take Lucas to and it’s one of the things I’ll miss the most when we leave. Let’s keep in touch you can follow my Instagram by clicking here.

Instagram-tification: This week

My coffee table. It makes me smile!

Acting like we’re dating. Coffee with converse!

I call it Instam-tification for a reason. The happy effect is instantly, you don’t need to worry about what to write and it feels a lot more personal and cool. I’m addicted to this stuff. It’s beyond simple you see something you love, take a picture and upload it. Here are a few of my personal latest.
