Does your chain hang low?

Today is the day... my first party pics from Germany! I have to mention that German clubs are seriously not too bad! They are huge, they have different halls for all kinds of music, plus some really talented DJs, and a very diverse crowd (unlike Manhattan where it's 80% girls and 20% guys) with lots of people who are actually dancing and not just hanging around trying to look like the coolest thug in the club. Hats off, the small underground clubs in the Big A. can't beat this! However, in Meatpacking you can find 20 clubs within four blocks whereas in Germany I have to drive to the next biggest club for like an hour from where I live, boohoo! Club-hopping is a foreign word here - can't wait to move to Berlin!

A Love Letter to Henri

Dear Henri Bendel, I miss you! 
Honestly, I have never bought anything in your ultra glamorous store on Fifth Avenue - admiring all these tiny treasures you're hiding over there just by looking at them was simply enough for me! Let me tell you, strolling through your upscale specialty store was always a pleasure for me, I would spend hours in this spot taking pictures of all the fabulous things you offer. Entering your emporium I found myself in a wonderland, surrounded by glittering boxes, sparkling jewelry, unique books, splendid make up, delicate candy and the most amazingly dressed mannequins. This is why I dedicated a couple posts to you already.
I promise, as soon as I come back to New York (hopefully very soon) I'll visit you! Until then, keep on shining like a diamond illuminating the oh so glamorous Fifth Avenue!
Lots of love, Laura

Welcome 2013 Remix

A new year has started, a year that will be as fabulous as 2012 for sure! Today you get to see the reason why I couldn't blog much lately... I was simply too busy enjoying the holidays and last couple weeks with my friends and family! Have a look at my girls having fun at the club, on Christmas, and on New Year's, some fabulous swagga clothes (wow, Germany became more fashionable), two marvelous hours of ballet performed to hip hop (thanks for the wonderful present, mom), me in an old Life & Style mag I found (back then I was a Jessica Alba double) and well, shoes!

A New Yorker Moment Part I

 

The city makes up for its hazards and its deficiencies by supplying its citizens with massive doses of a supplementary vitamin - the sense of belonging to something unique, cosmopolitan, mighty and unparalleled.

Hope you enjoy my favorite shots of some unique New Yorker moments!
