My Wish list

one day, I'll be seating on the front row. 
Recently found this Celine Bag. As soon as I saw the bag, I was like "This is so mine."

Lou Doillon

This video have made me such a big fan of Lou Doillon.
Also, the background piano song is called "overnight", which is by Gonzales.
Since I watched the video, I always listen to the song right before go to sleep.

"50 Most Stylish New Yorker"

Hey Guys
So, I have picked 10 best looks from StyleCaster's "50 Most Stylish New Yorkers."
It was heavily depended on my taste.. so.. If you guys don't agree with my selection, don't get mad :)
For the very first time, I uploaded two pictures of men's look. 
I like every single style of men's look, but Luigi Tadini got the first place.
He looks very comfy, but at the same time, he look very stylish.
His selection of clothing was good, but his hair style and the sunglasses make his look complete.
From women's look, I pick Abigail Lorick for the best look.
She looks very sophisticated and fierce. She has this soft but charismatic look.
And the most, I LOVE her bag. It's classy.
The bag also brought her look to the next stage. 

If you guys want to see more looks, please go check the StyleCaster website.

What’s your favorite NYC nightlife spot?

2A – it’s this bar on Avenue A and 2nd street. It feels like a really old bar-bar. And that’s such a rare thing in town these days. I’ve been going there for almost 20 years.                    
Who do you consider to be a great NY artist?
Sam Gordon. He’s a painter, collage artist.
What’s your first NY fashion memory? 
I feel like I have so many of those moments. I remember when I was a kid I was in Patricia Field and I was in a dressing room, god knows what I was trying on at Patricia Field, and Debbie Harry was next to me and she asked me to help her unhook whatever she was trying on. And my first thought was like OMG I have to call my mom – because my mom was obsessed with Debbie Harry growing up and the American Gigolo soundtrack. I think that I went to a pay phone – you know it was 1995 – and I was like MOM I just helped Debbie Harry out of a bustier at Patricia Field! And she was like I don’t know how I feel about that...

Do you have a secret shopping destination in New York?
Well I always tell people to go to Beacon’s Closet in Williamsburg because it really is like a massive warehouse. If you can’t find something there, you can’t find something anywhere!
Do you have a favorite place to hear bands in New York? 
Yeah! I always think the smaller, the better. We’re going to a show tonight. It’s always, like, whatever I’m doing today is the best answer! We’re going to see Matthew Dear tonight.

Who do you think is a really influential New York based designer? 

I think we have a really strong group of designers here. Obviously we have our Calvins, our Ralphs and our Donnas, who I think are hugely influential. Look at the sort of massive trend for minimalism, and look who started that – the likes of Calvin Klein. I think we also have a very strong, successful bunch of young designers. Look at the Prabals and Bibhus and Peter Soms. And obviously Proenza, but to me Proenza are more established. These guys have really come out in the past few years. They are so talented, they’re all sort of creating trends. But also it really started because they all are creating businesses.  
Do you have a favorite New York Artist? 
Who do I really admire? I love Hope Atherton’s work. I love Julian Schnabel’s work. I love Louise Bourgeois – She’d pretty much be my favorite for New York artists, but she has passed away unfortunately. She’s incredible.
What about a favorite New York nightlife or restaurant spot? 
I just went to The Lambs Club the other day, which was really great. I had a great time there, and the food was good. My friend Cobi Levy is opening a place called Niko on Mercer Street. I’m really excited to go there.

What are your go-to neighborhood spots?

I live in Greenpoint, Brooklyn and there’s a park there called McGolrick Park that I really love to hang out in. It’s really nice and relaxing. I also really like this Korean barbecue called Dokebi in Williamsburg and the Bloody Marys at Enid’s, which is in Greenpoint. I don’t really leave Brooklyn that much when I don’t have to.  
Is there any emerging New York talent that you’re really excited about? 
That’s difficult because I live in a hole. I live in a bubble. My friend Yara has a line called Nomia that I really loved. I really like this band called Wild Yaks. They’re in Brooklyn and awesome. I think that’s probably it. I live in a bubble. I make jewelry all day and I don’t pay attention to anything so I can’t tell you anything!  
Is there a NY designer that continually inspires you?
I love Robert Lee Morris a lot. He continues to be inspiring even now. Also, my friend Bliss Lau, who does amazing jewelry and is just constantly reinventing the idea of how you wear jewelry. I love Alexander Wang. I think he’s really great and constantly producing things that are so wonderfully wearable and fashion forward at the same time.

Jenné Lombardo, Founder, The Terminal Presents
What are your favorite New York shopping spots? 
No. 6 is one of my favorite stores. On Centre Market Place. It’s right around the corner from my house. Of course Opening Ceremony, and my friends' closets. In fact, that’s my number one!
What about some neighborhood hang outs where we could always find you? 
I usually stay downtown and just keep it in the neighborhood. So I’ll go to my friends' restaurants to always support them. The list is somewhat endless, but I love Kenmare. I love Ñ on Crosby Street. It’s a nice little staple that I’ve always been going to. Indochine. Lure. Where do I go out at night? I don’t even remember where I go out. Don Hills. Kenmare.
Are there any emerging New York designers that you are particularly inspired by? Especially because you’re so involved with MAC & Milk?
I really adore Katie Gallagher. I respond very well to her clothing and to her as a person. I love Suno very much—I never thought I would appreciate color until I met them! They’re incredible. Wayne Lee is also really good. I like what she does.

Do you have a favorite New York museum? 
We love them all. If we’re bored on the weekend we’ll go up to the Met. I feel that there’s sort of a childhood, nostalgia thing about going to the Met. It’s so easy to get lost in it. Definite nostalgia.  
What about a favorite shopping spot?
We actually do a lot of our shopping outside of NYC, but we’re big on going thrifting—going to flea markets and things like that. But in the city we love going to Ralph Lauren, and of course to Barneys and those department stores, which are always exciting.                    
Are there any New York fashion designers that continually inspire you? 
Us? (laughs) I don’t know, like inspiration for our aesthetics? The way we dress kind of just comes from being together for 16 years. We always think of it like some weird amalgam between John Goodman and River Phoenix.

Olivia Palermo, Model, Actress, Designer   


Do you have a secret, off-the-beaten-path shopping spot in New York?  
Not specifically. I think sometimes you find the best things when you least expect it. Just to go to small little boutiques that have one-of-a-kind pieces. And probably Nolita, I would say, is a great area.   
Do you have a favorite date spot that you like to go to?
I really enjoy going to Café Gitane. Johannes and I really like going there. So when we’re home we go there for dinner—so every once in a while.  
Do you have a favorite New York-based book, movie or television show? 
Aside from Sex and the City? Well, I did appreciate that 24 did its last season in New York—that was great.

Ashley Smith wears: American Apparel shirt; Cheap Monday jeans; Aldo shoes; Vintage Handkerchief
Ashley Smith, Model   


What is your secret New York shopping spot? 
I used to be a tomboy growing up, so I wore a lot of band shirts and things like that. I mainly shop on the Lower East Side and that vintage place, The Cast on Orchard Street. It’s a really cool store that used to be underneath another store, so you couldn’t even see it because it wasn’t above ground. They have t-shirts that are cut-up in certain ways that already have the vintage look.  
Do you have a New York nightlife spot or restaurant? 
My favorite restaurant that I frequent is Takahachi on Avenue A. It’s this Japanese place that is amazing. I don’t even know how to explain it. I get this tuna tartare there that is to die for.  
What do you think is the most influential decade for fashion in New York? I think I need to do a little bit of a history lesson before this one. For me, when I look back on history everything looks so great, but I think current times are always the best times—because you live in them now. So, now.

Luigi Tadini wears: J.Crew shirt; Barbour jacket; Marc by Marc Jacobs inner Jacket; Calvin Klein jeans; Opening Ceremony shoes; Vintage gloves; Ermenegildo Zegna scarf; Selima Optique Sunglasses; Woolrich bag

Who is your most stylish New Yorker?
I think a recluse Garbo was a pretty stylish character in New York. Who else… Max Fish was pretty stylish in a very different way. I think somewhere in between is really the essence of New York—someone who has this unique kind of uptown style that is timeless, and then the ever-changing trend-centric downtown.   
Who are some of your favorite NYC designers right now?

I love the work what Phillip Lim does for men because I think he really pushes gender boundaries—kind of that David Bowie characteristic and really giving menswear some delicate elements, some feminine—usually its womenswear elements—into his work. I love the work that the Proenza Schouler boys do. I just think that the idea of creating a collection in New York is already an achievement in and of itself. So the fact that these designers manage to pull this off every six months is really baffling.
What are some of your favorite stylish New York nightlife spots? It’s funny. I think as a foreigner —I grew up between São Paulo and New York—every time I come back and I’m crossing the bridge over to the city it’s like Rhapsody in Blue is playing in my head. So I think things that are really iconic to New York City still resonate for me, no matter how long I’ll live here. Central Park is incredibly stylish in the sense that you have so many different types of people using the park. And still, you have the whole geometry of New York that I think is very inspiring to someone’s style. And it’s changing, like fashion. In terms of places itself, I find myself going back to the same places all the time. Of course, I love the splendor of the 1950’s-looking Boom Boom Room. But, I also love little, tiny, hidden away spots. There’s this really small restaurant in Brooklyn called Cafe Moto, which I really like. It’s under a subway stop.
