It feels good to have NYFW under my belt. Click through for my final blog for Pocketto Magazine.

On another note, I've been meaning to show you photos of these Maurie & Eve wedges forever. They were sent to me by Free People and they are absolutely humungous, probably the tallest shoes I own. I find myself wearing them all the time, though, despite the fact that I crashed my car because I couldn't feel the brake when I was wearing them. (Nobody told me I wasn't supposed to wear heels while driving, GEEZ!)

And the other thing I'll be showing you more of is the unique Wish jacket they sent me, plus a giveaway because I know you all love a bit of free goodies. Stay choooooned. Or have a life, I don't mind if you do that either.

Love from Par-ee,

Chanelle

Tonight, I leave for London. Until next time, America, you will be missed. If I have any readers in London, Paris or Dubai, I would love to hear from you over the next week or so and meet up!

Day one

 

There’s a thread that flows through the people of New York City, a commonality that serves as the glue to its culture. I can’t put my finger on what it is, but it’s like a shade of colour that tints everything in its reach. It’s this commonality that fuels New Yorkers’ renowned pride in their city, and I believe it’s also what makes them so loud. And by loud, I mean that New Yorkers are absolutely comfortable with talking to a passer-by on the street. The many unsolicited chats with strangers are fast becoming my favourite aspect of the city.

Day two

What do you do when you can see Tommy Ton in the corner of your eye trying to get a candid photograph of you?

I never thought I’d have to ask myself that. And on a day I was wearing a $30 ASOS dress, no less. (It was paired with $30 Sportsgirl heels, $2 Urban Outfitters socks, a $4 JC Penney jumper and a $20 H&M blazer. I gotta do what I gotta do to get by.)
