The Three C's

Hello whoever happens to be reading this post! Today I spent a lovely (mostly) day in the beautiful City of New York! I started my day off taking the bus in with my mom (aka Momma Chang) and then we parted ways as I went to my hair appointment in midtown while she went into flatiron for work. 

Unfortunately today was VERY hot and humid so my hair was basically done for the moment I stepped outside of the salon. For a quick drink I decided to go into this lovely Cafe on 38th street that I've I had my eye on for a while. It definitely did not disappoint! It was a small spot but filled with great vibes and my iced coffee was excellent!
                                  
                     

Next stop I met up with my mom in flatiron at the IMG models office and this is where the highlight of my day, wait no YEAR happened. I'll let the photos do the talking for now. 
                                 

                         

Yes, that is the Chanel Iman. Vouge cover girl, Victoria Secret Angel, A$AP Rocky girlfriend, Chanel Iman. She is my all time favorite model and I must tell you one of the sweetest people I've ever met. This was actually my first time ever meeting her in person, however I have spoken to her over the phone for an interview I did (if someone asks I'll post the interview! ). I also completely adore her outfit! From her studded strappy sandals, to her leather mesh circle skirt, everything about her and her outfit was effortlessly flawless. 

In the pictures with Chanel I am wearing a flowy black tank from Charlotte Russe, a pair of black and gray cheetah print skinny jeans from Urban Outfitters, a spiked faux leather headband from a local beauty supply store, American Apparel tennis shoes and an embellished silver cuff that I got for $10 at a random store in the village! 
Here's a closer pick of the cuff! 
                              


I also got the chance to meet model Alyssa Miller, who is supposedly dating Jake Gyllenhaal. So I'd like to think that due to Alyssa and I's handshake, I've technically touched the hands of Jake Gyllenhaal haha. Unfortunately I didn't get the chance to take a picture with Alyssa but I recall her wearing a gorgeous red circle skirt with white daises printed all over it (this may not be the exact design since it's from memory but regardless I absolutely loved what she was wearing) 

Sadly my time with the models was short as Momma Chang had a meeting with Chanel and I was summoned away. I was actually pretty bored all day for the most part but walked up 23rd street to find some lunch and wounded up at another cafe. 
                                   

I honestly completely forgot the name of this Cafe (their fault for not having free wifi!!) but the pesto chicken panini and iced latte I got was delicious! Plus being Internet free I got a chance to people watch and really focus on my surroundings.  

All in all it was a great day and Of course I always love a chance to be in the City! 


                                                                                                   Until next time,
                                                                                                             DC
