Bye Vicky

What once used to be one of the most anticipated events (especially my late teens early twenties self) on national television has become lackluster fodder. Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show happened last Sunday, and from seeing the huge drop in viewership ratings many didn’t seem to care.  And could you really lame them? I stoped watching the show eons ago. The only reason I knew it was happening…

FBNYC News: Is In-Store Black Friday Shopping Dead?

FBNYC News: Is In-Store Black Friday Shopping Dead?

I’m going to go with an unequivocal maybe. Hello all, we have survived, yet again another Black Friday. Let us all cheer and be merry with all of the deals we got on said day! Now that I got that out of the way,  I will have to admit, I personally was not excited for Black Friday. I started my gift shopping early this year, and Black Friday sales were not a huge priority this year. I was however,…

FBNYC News: Amazon is Coming to Town

FBNYC News: Amazon is Coming to Town

Fresh off the news of the eCommerce giant making it’s way to New York, Queens to be specific, have many New Yorkers intrigued and annoyed. If you don’t know, New York is an expensive ass city. With crowded boroughs and almost every area gentrifying, it is hard as is for many New Yorkers already .

So what does it mean for Amazon’s residency for the city? New jobs of course, but at what cost? The…

FBNYC Trend: Puff Puff Give

FBNYC Trend: Puff Puff Give

New York is officially cold. Yay. I don’t know why I am always so surprised once the temps officially drop for the past twelve years, but here I am. Once again, feeling like winter has creeped back up on the unsuspecting. Sweaters and lightweight jackets are replaced with North Face and warm wool overcoats. I for one, hate the cold (California till I die! I am yelling this by the way then crypt…

FBNYC Personal: Neflix Maniac

FBNYC Personal: Neflix Maniac

I normally don’t write about shows, but this particular one has inspired me to do a brief synopsis. Don’t worry no spoilers are ahead. Only an insight into the ten episode Netflix original series called Maniac. The story, is a rather simple one, once the layers (and there are a lot of layers) are stripped away. Two people meet during a pharmaceutical trial for drugs that claims to take the place…

FBNYC Personal: Fashion Month: I'm Done

FBNYC Personal: Fashion Month: I’m Done

I wanted to go into detail about each fashion week this season as planned, but soon felt uninspired to write any reviews about the lackluster display of clothing traipsing down the various runways. Where is the glamour? The art? The drama?There were a few stand out pieces and designers, but overall I am just trying to compartmentalize my feelings of the rather blatant downward spiral of…

FBNYC Trend : White Boots

FBNYC Trend : White Boots

So, I have to be honest. I am not one to follow trends. I work on fashion trends a year before they are presented to the consuming public.  So by the time you lovely people start wearing them I’m over it. The glen plaid blazer (check), PVC everything (check), and ,shock ,white boots. I have had a hate and hate relationship with white shoes that aren’t sneakers for as long as I could remember.…

FBNYC Red Carpet Style: The Emmy's

FBNYC Red Carpet Style: The Emmy’s

Hey guys! I wasn’t going to divulge in anything Emmy this year, because the red carpet was filled with underwhelming looks from the attendees. Boooo!! I will say I was extremely happy to see one of my favorite miniseries HBO’s “The Night Of.” Get so much love. Side note, If you haven’t seen Riz Ahmed’s portrayal of a college kid’s night gone horribly wrong; you need to check out “The Night Of.”…
