Jay Z on repeat. Safiya this one’s for you
There’s nothing you can’t do
now that you’re in New York.
“Shawn Jay Z Carter”

"Empire State of Mind" by Jay Z feat.Alicia Keys. Dress: Prada, Brooch: Miu miu, Hat: The Hat Shop
Here is a comment I recieved from Safiya in response to a recent post.
“Let’s hear it for New York!”
Whats not to love?[New York]…. passing both actresses Naomi Watts and Parker Posey within 5 mins of each other on a crowded Soho street. Bumping into Mickey Rourke and tall blonde girlfriend while exiting the IKEA Brooklyn…realizing that Mark Ronson does indeed come into your part of Brooklyln…discovering that the best and cheapest vintage stores are right next door to your apartment building if you look hard enough enjoying your cousin’s amazing rendition of broadway classics on a west village stage, sneaking into free John Mayer concerts because the door guy thinks you’re cute, never having to wait in line at your frequented nightclub or perhaps that waitress at the cute little French place that always remembers your order and escorts you pass the long line on a crowded Sunday brunch day – even if you’re nobody special. But best of all finding out that fashion is not exactly whats advertised by the many overly detailed shopping windows but is as a result of a subtle somehow subliminal meshing together of many inspirations on a day out in this dynamic mecca I call home ….. for now.
