Wrapping It Up

(This post is an excellent example of why I need to get a compact digital camera)

This is what passes for “satay” in New York, and at US$7 a pop, too. Didn’t really do it for me, but then again it was soy satay… we (Sameer and I) were eating at a vegan place down the street [...]

PRINT

So I’ve been buying issues of PRINT recently.

Burberry:

Jbarks and the State of Economic Recovery

Urban Outfitters:

American Apparel:

Uniqlo:

Lucky + Armani Exchange:

I don’t care what anyone says about A|X in Singapore (ahem, K); over here the service is amazing and the jeans are unbelievably comfortable. Now I need to find a nice pair of stonewashed grey jeans… Levi’s just isn’t cutting it for me.

Stimulating the Economy, One Day at a Time

So today I met En (she’s studying at SVA now) for chills and eats. SVA single dorm rooms are damn small, that’s all I can say. Anyway — we walked around Nolita and the area near Madison Square Park and ended up buying these from a random record shop:

She got for herself a really nice Beatles [...]
