tenth summer in nyc
felt inclined to actually finish a substack for the first time in nine months…. it’s 90 degrees and sunny in new york, im in jelly shoes and a skirt that doesn’t fit the way i want it to. i’ve lived in new york almost ten years and moved over ten times and i’m packing up boxes again. i was just talking to dani about how music has been eliciting emotion in us again too, like as long as you stay in new york you’ll still be touching the culture, if you want it. summer used to drain so much from me, but now it’s like it’s pushing me to do more, like stay at the office all day and not go back to brooklyn for fourteen hours, or go to the party after the beach and smoke cigarettes even though i can’t do drugs anymore. summer is the perfect time to wear the same outfit for 24 hours straight, sleep on a friend’s couch and walk the hour instead of taking the subway. i bought these vagabon platform sandals from assembly bc the week of cut up feet is always worth it. an h&m sponsored ad brought me these perfect linen shorts, and a few weeks back i sold a bunch of clothes in ridgewood and bought perfect black dresses from simon miller & dries van noten from graceland for $85 each.
<3 to all !
