The Highline

Hey guys! This is part two of the photos from my mom's birthday. Warning, photo overload. After eating at Cookshop (check it out) we walked off some calories at The Highline. I never get tired of this place and if you ask me to go I'll go in a heartbeat. Maybe it's the combination of industrial architecture and thriving greenery, but there are so many photo moments here. I've never been here in the winter time or walked the whole way. Have any of you?

What's your favorite thing about The Highline?

All photos by me. Camera: Canon PowerShot Elph 150IS

Aesthetics

Aesthetics, oh aesthetics. The word has become so popular today I've heard people say, "That's my aesthetic." I even find myself saying it when out and about with my friends (in my head too). There are never-ending categories of aesthetics, but my favorites include clean lines, empty space, and a modern design. The one exception being Tokyo. Here are a few snippets from my adventures.

Do you guys also love the clean, modern aesthetic? What are your favorites?

Have a wonderful weekend,

Chinatown

The other day I met up with some friends in Chinatown, with the plan to grab $1.00 dumplings and jumbo-sized bubble tea. Btw, it's way bigger than Starbucks' trenta (Warning: not for the faint of heart). Arriving early, I had the opportunity to explore Chinatown as if I was seeing it for the first time. Here are the digitals I took, film will be coming soon.

The Art Complex

TGIF guys! I hope your finals are finally over, if not, you can do it! It was a bit of a challenge to push through, especially with all this sunshine. It's just screaming "come outside and have fun." Uber hard with endless final papers (5-20 pagers no less). These photos were taken in my school's visual arts complex, a space I wish I'd spent more time in. I thought it was a great compliment to where I'm leaning towards with my style. And I feel like it might be my new uniform. P.S.: I think I really, really love joggers.

I'm wearing a Club Monaco shirt, J.Crew trouser joggers (similar) and Superga Cotu Classics

The Photo Booth

"A NOSTALGIC, KIND-OF MOOD"

 

I just finished my paper, and I'm celebrating with a new blog post! I've been feeling super nostalgic lately. I'm enjoying the longer, sun-filled days and doing things at a slower pace. It might be spring and the approaching summer season, not laziness (I swear). With finally getting into film photography, I'm looking forward to capturing more moments (stay tuned). I love the uniqueness and quality that you truly can't with a digital. But for now, here are some pictures captured with Photo Booth, which I've been neglecting for way too long.

I've decided that I want to post more than once a week, I've been feeling so inspired and there's so much that I would love to share. Before I forget here's a song to jam to and get ready for those dreaded Monday blues. Enjoy!

As always, thanks for reading.
