New York is ridiculously humid and hot. My solution: Wear as little clothing as possible without getting a “slut citation”.

I’m having way too much fun in New York. Although extremely stressed and every day has seemed like a major road bump, I’ve seemed to muddle through and I’m still here… SHOCKING.

And yes, I went edit happy. Yay or nay? I loved how drastic they were in comparison to what I usually do. Thoughts? If you hate it…well, see prior post. JUST KIDDING.


thrifted crochet top | F21 tie-dye skirt | F21 skirt underneath (so I’m not naked) | Jessica Simpson Dany platforms | vintage bangles | Betsey Johnson watch | homemade friendship bracelet | $10 A.Wang knock-off sunnies | Natori bra

Now look into my nostrils. I shall tell you your fortune.

      NYC is an amazing place, I really do love it! There is a great place called Angelica’s Kitchen in the East Village. So delicious! And then go to Lula’s for vegan ice cream! Also go to Blossom for great burgers that don’t even seem VEGAN!

    Yes, I love the edits! They’re a fun change.

    I love this post! I was just wondering if you could tell me where you got your hair color done? Was it in sf? I’d really love to know! I live near sf, & would love to get my hair done like that! My hair is virgin from coloring so pleeeeaasssseee let me know! I adore you so much & wish I could dress like you!! Have a great day!! :)

    • http://www.profreshstyle.com Christina of Profresh Style

      Hi Denisse! It’s actually at this great salon in Berkeley called Barberella, make an appointment with Heather Roberts. She did a great job! I was virgin too and now, I couldn’t imagine going back! <3 Have fun and can't wait to hear about your trip! She will hook you up with a beautiful hair color!!

    I especially love this one: http://www.profreshstyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Desktopnew-photo-31-546×727.jpg

    I like the edits. Funny I felt the same way in NYC even on the worst days, I loved being there and life.

    Hope you’re doing ok back home.

    • http://www.profreshstyle.com Christina of Profresh Style

      Those are my favorites too! I was obsessed with the lighting! Yes, NYC can bring a lot of emotion but there really isn’t any other place I’d rather be..besides being home right now. :) Thanks for asking love, everything is okay.

      The skirt is beyond amazing. I was so surprised it was F21! It had finished trim and a zipper that worked, well. LOL. :)

    I never knew I wanted a skirt like that until now.

    It’s breathtaking.

    Lots of love from Sydney,

      Actually yes! I mean, don’t go walking 40 miles in them but other than that, they are great!

  • http://supersonicmagnifique.blogspot.com/ Aimee

    I love the editing of the photos! Looks great. Different is good, sweets! And keep on truckin in the big Apple. It’ll be worth it in the end! Good luck with the stickiness of the East Coast… sucks, doesn’t it?

      It will definitely be worth it, I know it! Just got to stick it out and pay my dues! Which in the end, will all be a story to tell! And yes, it does suck but I’m so happy I’ve finally made it to this coast!

    LOVE your photos! What kind of camera do you use and are you taking self-portraits or do you have an assistant? ;)

    • http://www.profreshstyle.com Christina of Profresh Style

      I actually use a self-timer for the most recent ones since I moved to NYC! But back home in SF, I used various photographers! :) Glad you like!

  • http://www.thekeytochic.com Melissa

    Hoping to see more rooftop photos in the future! I think this is a great way to beat the heat – in light, breezy pieces. I’m particularly partial to your pretty crochet top.

    • http://www.profreshstyle.com Christina of Profresh Style

      Yes! I know, there will definitely be more! I’m moving to another place in NYC with a BETTER rooftop so stay tuned for really awesome posts!! (Hopefully) :)
