Soho Shopping Haul with DBG2614

Soho Shopping Haul
| @diesel @clubmonaco #dbg2614 #soho #haul
| I started today out with the intent to play some PokemonGo in Soho. I ran my battery down to zero so I started shopping.
I was doing a good job at resisting my shopping compulsion until I saw a 5 foot long pair of Diesel Black Gold jeans hanging at the Diesel Soho store. Needless to day I was intrigued, and was convinced to try them on. The DBG 2614 are really quite cool. They are made to bunch as  you wear them and have this texture that I could never achieve on other jeans. They are lightweight and stretchy, so easy to bunch how and where you like. I found that If I bunch them over my entire leg they do slightly drift down as the day goes on. On a side note I bought a matching short sleeve button down and shorts from Club Monaco just for a laugh and ended up really liking them.

A Gilt Noir Status Perk | Zachary Prell at Saks off 5th

| #giltnoir #nyc #q&a @gilt @ZACHARYPRELL

| To my suprise there are men’s perk from Gilt.com and the first I experienced with a see-now-buy-now post show disgussion by Zachary Prell.I was excited to finally cash-in on a perk I received as a result of spending… enough money… on Gilt.com and acheiving “Noir” status. The conversation was very intimate, starting with champagne and a meet-and-greet, followed by a Q&A. The Q&A centered mostly around how Zachary brought about the vision of his fashion line and how there was a learning curve to starting a business out of his general area of expertise. Zachary is extremely approachable and as a fellow “Zach” I was please to see the good name being shed in such good light. Overall the experience was good and I would not hesitate to go to another Gilt Noir perk.

Summer Cold Soba & Tempura

| #soba #nyc #Japanese @SobayaNYC
| ??❄️
| Call it a weakness, call it a habit, call it delicious ~ There are few things that beat the summer heat but one of my favorites is cold soba.Sobaya in East Village has to be my favorite for any temperature of Soba. Soba-ya (meaning soba restaurant) uses natural ingredients and “buckwheat flour from Azumino, Nagano which is best known for sobako in Japan and also, buying first grade sobako milled by Kurashina Mill”. They have an amazing lunch special that includes Soba or Udon of your choosing, plus a side salad/soup, and tempura! Everytime I eat here I am never disappointed.

My First Blue Apron with Crispy Cod and Summer Squash

| #916 #food #dinner @blueapron
| ???
|I have been meaning to try Blue Apron, or something similar, and finally made the commitment. After reviewing many services, Blue Apron appeared to have the best track record and most choices.The first meal I made was a Crispy Cod ribboned Summer Squash dish. I had never cooked, let alone pan fried fish before, but i’m please that the result not only looked pleasing but was tasty! Initial assessment of Blue Apron is pretty good. However, I wish there was a better way or an alternate way to dispose of the ice packs.

Happy Pride 2016

Happy Pride 2016.

From above the street, it looked like a single bright thought drifting through the city—an arc of rainbow balloons, tethered and carried forward by people moving at an easy, steady pace.

New York stacks worlds on top of each other: sun on pavement, tree branches cutting shade into pieces, a crowd pressed against barricades, and then color—so much color—passing by like a small weather system of its own. The balloons make a soft ceiling over the marchers, and the whole scene feels lighter than it should, like the city briefly remembering how to breathe.

It’s strange how a parade can feel both temporary and permanent. Temporary because it passes, because the street goes back to traffic and errands. Permanent because the image sticks: a public kindness, carried down an avenue in daylight. People showing up for each other where everyone can see.

I keep thinking about how streets collect memories the way old houses do—layer by layer. For a few blocks, the ordinary becomes something gentler. The parade keeps moving, the crowd keeps watching, and above it all that rainbow stretch holds together, floating forward as if it knows the way home.

Gay Pride weekend – it starts

Pride weekend always seems to begin the same way: with a door half-open to the night, a hallway that feels too small for the amount of anticipation in the air, and a few cups raised like a quiet agreement that we’re going to remember this.

In the middle of it all, there’s that bright, slightly unreal glow—colors louder than they look in daylight, laughter that ricochets off the walls, and the sense that the weekend is already moving faster than you are. Hell’s Kitchen has its own weather: warm bodies, music leaking through floors, and the pulse of the city pushing in from the street.

This is the part before the big crowds and the parade routes, before schedules and meeting spots and “text me when you’re close.” It’s the beginning-beginning. A small room where friends lean in, where outfits feel like declarations, where you can catch a glimpse of yourself in someone else’s grin and think, yes, this is why we came.

By tomorrow there will be glitter in places you can’t explain and a hoarse voice you’ll wear like a souvenir. Tonight is simpler. Tonight is just the start—three people framed in a quick photo, the kind you take without planning, the kind that ends up meaning more than you expect.
