Spring Prints in Bushwick

WE CAN FINALLY MAKE OUTFITS THAT WONT BE COVERED BY A JACKET!

And we are all kinds of excited about it. 

You know that DAY when the sun finally comes out and your skin can breathe in the sunshine for the first time? We live for it. 

We thirst for color...at first we thirst for colors as pastel and as bright as possible. Kealro broke out this pastel tropical wonder the first week of this year's spring. I LOVE. Vintage men's tropical shirts are super trendy...they kind of always have been a staple of American summer time but now the fun in the irony of wearing ridiculous tropical shirts have made them all the more prevalent on the streets.

This one reminds me of the interior of a Miami Subs. Just needs some flamingos.

Round glasses are baaaaaack. We're not mad at it. Kealro got these at American Apparel for $45 bucks. If you're broke like me, you can find super cheap, round sunglasses at anyyyy Chinatown booth or on St. Marks for like $10. Again, love the round. 

Kealro feelin it on the roof in Brooklyn. 

My Spring ootd was a little less color-inspired but certainly perfect for the 60 degree day. I finally broke out my semi-croptop I got at Topshop in London. The shirt has shrunk since I got it a few years ago BUT my high-waisted 100's from American Apparel totallllly has saved this shirt from retirement. It is giving me a Spring breeze I thought I'd nevah feel again!

Gold accessories duh. I want to be dripping in gold, you know? LOVE these sunglasses from American Apparel. Round enough and quirky enough and gold. 

Feelin it. 

Heyyyy Spring. 

Because we're obsessed.

Brooklyn Local Spotlight: Brooklyn Charm

Where to shop in Williamsburg? A common question in the hood. Much of Brooklyn's allure is its' "hard-to-find" nature. There are SO many places in Williamsburg that you would easily pass without knowing what lay behind that old rustic door you pass everyday on the way to work. But not to worry! There are locals that are willing to share the wealth! One of these hidden gems is Brooklyn Charm- an amazing little shop, full of CHARMS.  Right off Bedford Ave, just a few blocks from the L stop, Brooklyn Charm is definitely a spot to stop by when in Williamsburg. 

It's quite charming. 

My friends Emily, Emily, and I had a random Thursday off a few weeks ago and we decided to hit the streets and make it a day in the burg. We got a beer at Brooklyn Bowl, breakfast tacos at Whirly Bird, and ventured in all the vintage shops around Bedford. Our last stop was Brooklyn Charm. We were there for over an hour. Whoops! 

You can see why we took so long. Brooklyn Charm has EVERY charm you could ever imagine. Elephants, screwdrivers, horoscope signs, US states....I mean anything that you can imagine for real. 

I wanted them all. Andddd after a few beers, I REALLY wanted them all. The process is quite easy. Grab a tray, pick out ya charms, buy a chain, and check out! There is a dollar a charm assembly charge (You can obviously do it yourself to save money...Im not good with pliers so I left it to the pros) AND BADA BING. You have yourself a personal necklace.  

But this is what I put together. Princess Diana and a pyramid. The other charm above is me circa 1991. Fresh and Precious right? 

I love this shit. I wear my little charm necklaces allllllllll day every day. I love to pull a 90s fashion style and wear it over all my sweatahs. It's a great touch. 

RIP Princess Di. Sometimes the world gets jealous of too much perfection. 

Totally not your fault. 

Definitely check out this gem next time you are wandering through Williamsburg. It is fantastic for gifts and even more fantastic for yourself. There are SO many great shops in Brooklyn that just need a little discovery. We will find them all. 

Because we're obsessed.

After shopping the streets of Bedford, walk a few blocks West to spend some time with this skyline. 

Bria in Floral

This winter I have spent most of my time cozying up in the loft and constantly entertaining guests. You come to me, you know? Bria was no exception- coming over appropriately dressed for a comfy day at home. This floral baby doll dress from American Apparel is such a great little dress to romp around in. The high waist is flattering to most all and gives a nice vintage, youthful (baby doll) look.

Love it Bria!

UNIF in the Dark

There's an old convent on the corner of my street. 

Alex and I wondered what spirits and secrets lie behind the iron gate... 

Our heads turned. 

And we were sucked in. 

We felt the spirit. 

We admired the spirit. 

We danced with her until dawn. 

 But the spirit grew tired. 

And we were to leave. 

Because we're obsessed
