ny sneak street style shots

ok so my major disappointment of myself whilst me being here in nyc is not the fact that i got scammed by a bad beauty deal & accidentally paid WAYYYY to much [$500+] for a haircut (beware young padiwans thinking of travelling to nyc) at a tacky/bad salon. ALWAYS yelp review everything!

NO

i am so terribly and utterly shy at asking people to take their picture! so heres all you get! and sometimes the really hot people are so intimidating that i dont even want to do a sneaky! so this is some of the MANY cool outfits im seeing here on the street. lots of back view shots sorry. but seriously if you want good street style blogs i hopefully dont have to link you to them. they do this for a living for crying out loud. so all these are my photos... pls dont steal unless you ref me.

obviously this city has had a LOT of attention to detail. the subway, although a bit dank and dirty has these gorgeous signs all through it. most of them tiled. this pale green colour is my all time fave colour so i love these shots. this is also where im spending a lot of my time getting around.

tears on the flight in. kind of one of those things about growing up in generation Y. new york has been one of those milestones that you see all your life in films and hope to one day see it for real. its the mecca of all things consumerism. so in other words all you could ever want as a gen y-er.

I'm not sue if my expectations were too high about this place being some kind of saviour of my life but its actually really scary. i knew i was going to love it at some point but amongst being rained on an not really know where the heck the subway stations were and where the subway was taking me (complete gamble and i finally figured it out)
i even ATE subway while looking for the subway so i think that helped.

so all my fantasies (my whole life) of arriving in NYC on a sunny day and everyone being nice & eating bagels was a rainy cold day!

But i tottered along with y $2 umbrella and discovered this giant machine that has amazing-ness on every corner. great to meet up and lunch with my good friend hamish who showed me  his amazing studio on 5th ave and the best cafe near madison. we went to one of the trendiest (so i found out) restaurants for dinner. food was out of this world mexican. not bad for my first day! 

people who said they appreciated my outfit = 4 

people who asked me for directions = 1 (i must look like a new yorker)(yay) 

times getting lost/disorientated = lets not talk about it. (did i mention someone asked me for directions?)

shopping bags = 5

NEW YORK WIN. (NING)

san fransisco is freaking gorgeous. the houses look like dolls houses. it was sunny every day i was there and it was a cool place to hang. although coming fresh from melbourne which im told is quite similar to san fran i think to get the full on experience you need to go to another us city first to see how different it is. hot fashion. next stop NYC. this little girl and her mum had matching chihuaha's. the little one was seriously the size of a grande starbucks cup. just sayin. that shi cray.
