Brooklyn Is Always A Good Idea: July 2023

thrifted in bushwick

ate good at nobu

stumpled upon a fire speakeasy

had a few cute rooftop moments

and bought some artsy, vintage designer heels

I'm a happy girl.

will be back soon to do it all again

( SIDE BAR: I think I might rewatch the MGM series, 'From'. It was really good. Have you watched?)

Here For A Good Time, Not A Long Time: New York x 3/17/19

I love how easy it is to take a quick trip to New York on a whim. It's become my new favorite playground. There's always something to explore. Hannah and I had a rare Sunday that we (she) were both off and decided to check out the Frida Kahlo exhibit before it left the Brooklyn Museum. Our original plan was to visit the black and white exhibit at Cadillac House but it was closed for the day -- bummer. The weather held it together for us and we were able to have a fun-filled day that consisted of a quick stop by HRY, the Frida exhibit and a delicious bite at cajun restaurant Catfish in Brooklyn. I can't wait for summer.

( SIDE NOTE: Join me at Pancakes and Booze, April 11th for their 10 Year Anniversary show. New location, The Howard Theatre.)

MATTE Projects Presents BLACK

"When you walk to the edge of all the light you have and take that first step into the darkness of the unknown, you must believe that one of two things will happen. There will be something solid for you to stand upon or you will be taught to fly."

MATTE Projects is bringing a collaborative music, design and art affair - BLACK - to the Brooklyn Hanger next Saturday, November 14th. BLACK, founded in 2013, promises to not only be a musical endeavor but a sensory experience as well. 

I'm so excited to attend, and have my mind blown. From the talent, to the large raw warehouse space… this is right up my alley.
