New York Video Diary



Someone close to me once said that "to life, fashion is the cherry on top". I completely agree, but the past few months have been so amazing that every single thing is the cherry on top. The first and foremost reason I started blogging was to document my travels, with fashion adapting along the line. The reason I love to travel and have this blog at all is that it is fuel to my 'weakness' of wandering. I thrive on new experiences, pushing myself and discovering parts of the world and often myself, that I never considered to exist beforehand. I'm not entirely certain as to why I love New York as much as I do, maybe because there is so much to do and make the most of every day; but I feel like that is where I actually live and now I'm in Sydney homesick for it.

This is a little sneak peek of my time in New York for my readers, and my family whom have never been. Wandering the Highline, shopping on Broadway, coffee at Saturday's, flashing at the Top of the Rock and of course some of NYFW. It was often too cold to take footage, forgetting my camera battery on several occasions (mainly over FW) or just knowing that some moments are best kept in your own memories. Also, I don't know why I raise my arms all the time; I just put it down trying to spread some happy.

  25. Jess. Oh. My. F'ing. God. First of all - you are such a sweetheart! Secondly.. I love your blog, you have me mesmerised with how simply beautiful each and every one of your posts are - the outfits, the accessories, the location. But lately it seemed like it was only about fashion. And that's not a bad thing, who am I to tell you what your blog should contain haha -you can tell me to shut up now - I just LOVE the video diary. It was that little something that was missing all along. I really enjoyed watching your video diary, I NEVER leave a comment seeing as there are always a billion but congrats! I really hope you get to make the move one day.

    And also - I have never been to NY but this makes me want to go so so much.

    PPS haha, along with everything else, I rate the song. Perfect choice, compliments the video diary perfectly.

  68. there's something about new york that you just can't get enough off. I go every year for at least 2 months and every time i leave NYC, I just feel this disconnection from home, even though new york isn't my hometown.
