trendspotting

I've become a collector. I walk places, I see pixelated awesomeness, I document said awesomeness in photographs. Extra points awarded if pixelated awesomeness is from arcade games. Above spotted in the East Village.


Spotted in the Meat Packing District.


Spotted in Montmartre, Paris. I especially love the flower box.

i missed the sun today

They said there was a massive winter storm warning for today. I believe they lied and stole the sun at the same time. Jerks.

Picture was taken by an ex-firefighter from Brooklyn who now works on the water taxi to Ikea. He told me the story of how he miraculously survived September 11th in the most authentic Brooklyn accent I've ever heard.

dancing in my underpants

Sondre Lerche's soundtrack to Dan in Real Life makes me dance around in the morning semi-clothed; specifically To Be Surprised have a listen, maybe you'll want to dance around in your frilly lacy things as well!

back to regular programming

Sorry about the lack of posts. My parents came to visit me in New York and we had a blast; mum kept saying, "this is opening up my horizons." Dad knew everything there is to know about New York after reading my rough guide except how to swipe the metro card with any success. I took them to the Frick Collection as it is my favourite, over to Brooklyn to see the view back at the city, up the Empire State Building and just walking around the city to get a feel for it.

Brought to you by etsy seller smartfish. Would be perfect for my wedding day! Swoon, but expensive.

dear skylight diner

This is not a fork, it is a trident. A trident is for ruling the seven seas. Please re-evaluate your utensils and purchase some forks accordingly.

Kind Regards,

Kim.

glam-tastic

Oh goodness oh goodness! Normally I'm not a huge fan of J Crew with their loafers, cardigans and gold sequined shorts? However, this beacon bag I'm drooling over (minus the price, there is little to no drool over the price)!
