Only on the subway in NYC...

I was heading to Brooklyn and a bunch of kids jumped on the train with a boom box. They started rappin a bit and then after blasted some old school break dancing music on their boom box. I looked away and when I looked back I saw the kids break dancing and the cool part was that the train was crossing the bridge so they had a good 5-8 mins without the train stopping/people jumping on/off the train. It was definetly the most creative/entertaining way to make some cash on the train that i've seen so far.

Oh what a change...

Since you've last seen me, you'll notice that i lost the big ghetto gold earrings, the fabulous nails, crossed with the whole hipster look - that whole trashy classy look. It's probably because that look here is old and the only people still rocking that style are the girls who were rocking them since day one in the PJs. That look was soo 4 years ago. Or maybe it was never the "in" style since high fashion is all around. It's crazy how different SF is to NY. Or should I say, how far behind SF is from NY, style wise. I am loving the late 80's/early 90's look crossed with the bohemia style.. it's been around for a while. The greatest thing about NY compared to SF is that you get to change up your style for every season. Summer was great, who would've thought that I would wear Keds without socks.. in different colors or gladiators with fringe in different lengths. SF wouldn't allow you to get into those without freezing your little toe off. I got into cute skirts, tank tops, bras that have cute straps and backs. I was able to wear cute bikinis under lose tops.. oh the endless things you could wear during the hot NYC days. Then you get the ultimate extreme of winter. Winter here is fun because you get to wear cute long coats and accessorizes with cute scarves, puffy ear muffs, all kinds of hats, knitted barets, fancy gloves, colorful leg warmers under your boots, cute tights.. ohh all the fun I am having with shopping for NY's winter. It did get as cold as 25 degrees last week which was harsh. It fucking sucked when there was a cold front because that wind feels like 15 degrees and you either need a scarf or a nice coat that covers your mouth so that you can breath... Yup.. NY's winter!!

P.S. Patiently waiting for Top Shop to open to help add to my winter collection!!
