this is a photo Diary(ish) of a twenty-something year-old taking on seven days in new york city for fashion week, one hot minute a time. watch as she steps into a puddle of trash juice and denies the whole thing happened, then does a marylin monroe over subway fart in front of a gaggle of construction workers. it’s ok, she is proud about it all.
I can never go back, can i.
Checked into an AirBnb in SoHo and got lost everytime I went out to get milk.
Dress – 2nd DAY. Skirt – ASOS (similar). Hat & Bag – Kurt Geiger. Watch – Larsson & Jennings. Bracelet – X Jewellery.
…so much that once I took a cab back from two blocks away.
As usual, the effect of New York to this European-to-the-core is that of whiplash, whatever medal I mentally award myself for packing semi-appropriately for the weather (contrary to the numerous occasions in the past in which I had completely missed the memo about either blood-stopping cold or biohazard heat). The minute you get in that Uber at JFK, it’s Keep your hands in at all times, and better secure those sunglasses because they will fly off on the next loop. If a New York minute is to Johnny Carson, the interval between a Manhattan traffic light turning green and the guy behind you honking his horn, to me it’s that (ever so slightly dejecting) micro-moment when the tax gets added onto a bill. One minute you have the exact change, the next minute you’re splitting your $100 note and getting a Robin Hood sack of change in coins. My point is, seven days in New York is but a blink of an eye, and at the end of it all, you’re just in sheer amazement of how much you managed to take in such beautiful grandness, smelly, screaming awesomeness, in that split second of a minute. Well here’s me trying to explain in photos.
And of course, it’s just too bad a London Minute is essentially the customer ahead of me in the Royal Mail Post Office checkout line, which means I’m looking forward to being in New York again in about TWO BILLION YEARS.

You are so talented and we are so lucky we get to see your work for free on your blog. Love Sophie xxx

Holy moly! I just can’t even begin to grasp how you can make the post layout like this. It must be so much work. It looks absolutely amazing, but again, so much work. How did you learn to do this?
Loved the way you edited the photos

Your blog > any magazine out there *insert heart eye emojis*!
Wish I was there for NYFW! From your Instagram (as well as The Apartment’s account of course) it looked incredible and I’m so jealous of all the wonderful shows you attended and the outfits you got to wear.
Can’t wait to see all your LFW posts. Speaking of, never managed to catch you at the LFW Apartment (or the London Design Festival for that matter!) as I know you were probably dashing to and from shows all the time, but hey, here’s to hoping I’ll run into you at the next event somehow…

Glorious! If you ever decide to publish a good ol’ skool print mag, I’ll be the first to stand in line to buy a copy. I love every single shot, though my fave is the black and white photo where you’re wearing a hat. It’s forties cinema at its best.
I’m gonna have dinner now, all those food shots are making me extra hungry!

So beautiful! I always wondered how fashion week bloggers do it – do you have a photographer following you around all day? Or, do you set up photoshoots? Are those your own clothes or borrowed? I’m so curious about this process!
I love how you put together all the content on this site. So elegant and sleek!
We released our new collection today so have a look and let us know what you think!! We would love to hear from you and send something if you’re interested!

Wow, incredible blog layout! How long have you been blogging for?
you make blogging look easy. The overall look of your website is excellent, as well
as the content!
As a fellow blogger, you have got to share on how you do all these image overlaps and text going partially over images. You got to share me your secrets! Been looking all over online for plugins to do it how you do and its killing me!
Although I’m not a woman and can’t dress the way you do, I still foll ow your blog religiously. For your curated photographs, website layout and beautifully structured all rounded blog.
It will be heaven and earth if you could nudge me in the right direction to posting in the layout that you do, even a little snippet.
I’ll always be waiting! airprds@hotmail.com
Lots of love from Bali island.
In love with this photos and looks

There is just so much beauty and individuality in every single editorial (rather, digitorial) that you publish. My only hope is that I can soon develop my own signature style and produce amazing imagery/written content in the way that you do. Thank you for continuing to inspire me (us) to create.

I never realized it was possible to make the act of eating pizza look so stylish. You are stunning.
What a unique and beautiful collection it is..! This unique clothing dressup looks amazing and attractive as the vegan trend follows the vegan fashion to attract someone and also to avoid animal related products.
