New York City - "IT BAG"

Longchamp est. 1948, a French brand that hasn't seem to have made it's mark in Southern California just yet. The brand first landed in the U.S. in 1999, Madison Avenue NY (of course). In lower Manhattan SoHo lies "La Maison Unique Longchamp", beholding a beautifully designed interior as pictured above. Throughout the streets of NYC, many young ladies trotted around in a Longchamp "Le Pliage". This "IT BAG" seems to be worn mainly by college-aged women. The price, design, and size for these nylon/leather babies are, to my amusement, quite practical. Not only are they spacious and durable, they can also be folded into a compact size with a snap-on when not in use. The designer "Le Pliage" handbags range from $80-$155, no wonder it's flooded in the streets of NYC! "SAN DIEGO, HERE WE COME!"

New York City - Street Fashion

Fashion in New York this summer consists plenty of florals, gladiator sandals, messenger bags, crossover bags, and fedoras. With the blazing east-coast heat, it's no wonder everybody dresses in loose fitted clothing, in hopes of catching a store front or subway breeze! The Big Apple, the city that never sleeps, is on the run 24/7. You'll find New Yorkers scurrying their way around town at all hours, day and night. Unlike Californians and our fast cars, they have fast legs. Many New Yorkers run the town by taking the widely used subway stations, costing $8.25 for a day pass; or, like our Sex and the City fashionista idols, take the taxi. Which is why being equipped with travel friendly outfits is a must! It's not a surprise that many city gals are sporting messenger bags and crossovers for their convenience and style. Gladiator sandals are securely strapped onto your feet, which makes being on-the-go a lot easier. You'll be surprised, every girl in SoHo flaunts a different pair. Gotta LOVE New York City, fashion and function!



XOXO,
