The lovely Haute Highschooler just nominated me for the Liebster Award! Thank you a ton, it means a lot to me that you enjoy my blog, even though it’s just getting started.

My nominees are:

The rules of the award are:

Once nominated, make a post thanking and linking the person who nominated you.
Include the Liebster Award sticker somewhere in the post.
Nominate 10 other new bloggers who have 200 or less followers who you think are worthy of this award. Let them know that they have been nominated by commenting on one of their posts. You can nominate the person who nominated you.
Answer the 10 questions asked to you by the person who nominated you, and make ten questions of your own for your nominees.
Copy these rules into your post.

Answering the questions made me have a flashback to the days of Myspace surveys.

Questions for chosen bloggers to answer:

1. What’s your horoscope sign?

I’m a full-blown Libra, even though I’m a Virgo-Libra cusp

2. If you could personally witness anything, what would you have seen?

Either aurora borealis or the festival of colors in India.

3. What’s the best compliment you’ve ever received?

I can’t think of specific compliment but any time that I’m told that I’m a good friend or girlfriend is the best. I cherish my friends a lot and there’s nothing more I love than making them feel loved.

4. If you had to be named after a city, state, or country which would it be?

This is an odd one. I did have a friend named Asia when I was younger and I always it was pretty.

5. What’s your favorite word?

Melancholy or pomplemousse (grapefruit in French).

6. Books or movies?

Both! I love watching movies and reading books but if I had to choose one, maybe books.

Butterfinger or Sour Punch Straws

8. If you could be any cartoon character who would it be?

Jake the Magic Dog, duh.

My baby blanket. Yeah I’m in my 20s and I still sleep with a baby blanket, WHAT OF IT?!

By Chloe., the vegan cafe taking Manhattan by storm

My friend and celebrity chef, Chloe Coscarelli, just opened up her very first restaurant, in the West Village. By Chloe is centered around comfort food that many vegans have to miss out on, like hearty burgers and even mac n’ cheese. Since the restaurant opened about 3 weeks ago, the line has been out the door with locals and fans who have traveled just to get their hands on a delicious locally sourced vegan treat. I personally am not vegan, in fact, I love meat and am usually hesitant toward vegan versions of meaty foods, but I trust everything Chloe makes. She, of course, did not disappoint this time around. My favorite meal so far is the classic burger, air-baked fries and a cold brew Stumptown coffee. Chef Chloe started out as a vegan pastry chef (she won Cupcake Wars!), so the grab-n-go baked treats are her specialty. I have actually dreamed about her chocolate chip cinnamon espresso cookies and banana bourbon ice cream. I highly suggest vegans and non-vegans to go try out this new little place in Village out. It is even open late so you can satisfy your late night cravings or get that late dinner you have been waiting after a long day of work.

By Chloe. is located at the corner of MacDougal and Bleecker at 185 Bleecker St.

As for my outfit:

If you have known me for a few years, you probably recognize this t-shirt. I bought it at the Marc by Marc Jacobs store in LA probably 5 years ago and have gotten so much use out of it, it’s ridiculous. It’s now that perfect worn-in soft cotton and still goes with everything. I will probably still be wearing when I’m a crazy 100 year old woman with a fabulous sequin skirt.

This skirt is also a favorite piece but newer. Banana Republic is one of the few stores that sells petites, and I have been wanting a pencil skirt for forever. It was more than I was willing to spend at the time it came out so I admired the perfect skirt from afar. As soon as it went on sale, it had to be mine.

I have a great rooftop terrace in my building in wonderful West Harlem. I decided to use the space for a silly shoot, by me and my self timer. I’m really glad no one from my building saw me trying to find places to set my camera and scurrying to beat the camera to my spot. As you can tell, I am not a model. In fact, far from that. I prefer to be behind the camera. I did like my outfit this day though, and decided it was blog worthy.

I’m often drawn to boxy tops that make me look like a toddler. I’m only 4’10” so looking young is not hard, but quite frankly, I do not care. Also, I have had this skirt for probably too long. I have been saving it for when denim skirts came back in style, and LUCKY ME they have! As for my shoes, they are apart of an extensive loafer/oxford collection. I am always drawn to menswear inspired shoes and I don’t think I will ever have too many pairs. This pair is my favorite and I get compliments on them all the time. I love mixing menswear inspired pieces with feminine ones, like a mini-skirt. Even as a kid, I have loved boys clothes and trying to make them sort of girly. It all started during my Avril Lavigne phase of wearing ties and boys underwear and a lot of black and pink (I was really cool, ok?). This style has seemed to stick with me my entire life and I love it. My style is most likely influenced by my mother, who dressed me like a tomboy while I fought to wear bows and pink. I think she knew my style before I even did.
