Fab Foodie. Chic Geek. I Like pretty things. The musings of a style savvy, uber nerdy, cupcake crazed, visual merchandising, design dabbling, burlesque loving Brooklynite!

Mouthfuls of Spring and Summer @kiwiananyc . Slow poached baby beets with lavender infused ricotta, and a simple salad of watermelon, fava beans, ricotta and mint. ❤ #foodstagram #brooklyn #parkslope #appetizers #kiwiana #summer #spring #salad #tastetherainbow #vegetarian #whatsfordinner #topchef (at Kiwiana Restaurant)

I went to the ballet with @imbibeblyth1933 for my birthday and got all emotional. Mostly, I got teary-eyed when @daniil took the stage. Not just because he was amazing, but because he reminded me of my old roommate @tomingsnyc and I started to miss him. 😢 #abt #lecorsaire #latergram #ballet #somanyfeels (at The Metropolitan Opera)

Got my swing dance on today at You Should be Dancing. This class was so great, I think I'll keep coming back. And not just because people kept calling me "Batgirl." You should totally check it out. It's right by Penn Station and you can learn anything at any level for almost nothing. This 3.5 hr crash course in swing was only $35! Thanks for the invite Arkeida! #dancing #swing #photooftheday #batgirl #danceclass #nyc #woc #retrogirl #rockabella #retro #swingdance #selfie #swingskirt (at You Should Be Dancing...! Dance Center)
