Summer Streets

Saturday, August 16, 2014

Finally went out to Summer Streets and luckily caught it on the last day this year! Even though being awake at this hour on a saturday morning was a pain in the butt (the event ran from 7am -1pm) it was refreshing to get going early on. This was taken on the huge line we waited on for FREE HELMETS!! YEAH. 

jacket - $7 aeropostale 
yoga shorts - $8 target
sports bra - $13 tj maxx
sneakers - nike


After getting our helmets, we got our citi bikes because we couldn't find the free bike rentals, but they were probably all gone anyway. A really nice traffic guard just gave me one for free and he was so sweet!! So I got to ride around on this baby all day without redocking heheh. There was a lot of free food but we didn't want to wait on the lines and we wanted to get on the road already and it was so COOL. The street is huge and just cruising down with all the buildings by the sides was so much fun. Just imagine NYC with just bicycles - so freakin' swag. I'm definitely going to be coming back next year and hopefully getting there earlier!

My boyfriend being a dingus on the Brooklyn Bridge.
We rode all the way down to the last rest stop and went on the bridge which was EXCITING cause I've never crossed it before! Being on the bike, you realize how annoying pedestrians are and it was so crowded on that damned bridge. Afterwards, we just cruised along the empty streets with the brownstones and the Brooklyn Bridge park. 

$7 and it's from Zara!

We passed by a house having a "stoop" sale and even though my dummy boyfriend didn't want to stop by and check it out OF COURSE WE DID cause he owed me puahaha. They had such cool stuff for sale but I just picked up this bombass sweater that's going to be perfect for back to school. It's like a mix between a poncho, rug, and ugly christmas sweater BUT I LOVE IT.

The Whitney

Friday, August 15, 2014
Cool sculpture we passed by while walking to the museum!

peep us in da mirror 


I decided to take my boyfran to the Whitney Museum of American Art cause they have pay what you wish nights Fridays from 6-9pm. The line was soooo long, winding all the way down the block, but the wait was quick ~30 min. It's originally $16 for students but we ended up getting in there for just $1 for both of us! (cheap asses hahah) The lady gave us a weird tone but we're broke college students so C'MON. We were only interested in the Jeff Koons exhibit and his work is really vibrant and fun to look at. So check it out on Friday nights! I don't think I would shell out the $$ any other day.

OOTD time! (I'm really digging the all-white look for the summer) :D
linen shirt - club monaco (hand me down)
tank top - $4 hollister
shorts - $10 american eagle
tennis shoes - $12 payless
bag - lesportsac

Mad Decent Block Party 2014 (Brooklyn)

Saturday, August 9, 2014

Introducing my favorite people in the world!! All of my high school friends (along with Mo haha) decided to get our asses to Coney Island for Mad Decent. Even though it was a bit pricey and the event was HORRIBLY horribly horribly organized I'm glad I got to spend today with these beautiful people. I kinda wished it was bit more ghetto and ratchet, especially after all the hype of this being the hugest ratchetfest ever. Please take note of the sign we made with our blood, sweat and tears and we had to sadly discard it at the end cause it was breaking hahah

bralette - $2 h&m
high waisted shorts - $10 forever21
rose headband - urban outfitters
I got those little rhinestones on our faces for $1 at target btw :) WHAT A STEAL.


Just some of the polaroids we snapped before heading out. It was so much fun getting ready and we ended up getting there so much later than we had planned.

My boyfriend got me a polaroid for our 1 year anniversary!! It's the Fujifilm insta mix 8 and it's in the CUTEST shade of pastel yellow and I'm soooo excited to use it. I honestly think any girl would love this as a present, it's just one of those things. And i took a few pictures already and decorated them with cute stickers that I've hoarded since when I was a child and now I can finally put them to use. YAY
