One of those city nights…

There are moments when I absolutely positively love New York City and this past July 4th was one of those moments. It was one of those days when you wake up and the whole day is just smooth sailing. I’ve been partying like a mad woman. I think it’s unconsciously because I’m trying to get over a guy that I’m…

Harlem Edit: Where to Eat Uptown

I’ve lived in New York City for 11 years and in Harlem for 8 years. I thinks it’s about time I do a Harlem Edit, listing all the best things to do and see as well as where to shop and EAT! I remember the first time I got off the 2 train at 125th street and Lenox in 2007…

The Best Memorial Day Sales

I’m excited. Wanna know why? It’s because we have a 3 day weekend! Yes, I did just get back from vacationing in California but a girl can never have too many vacation days. Especially when it’s time to kick off the summer Brunch Parties and dancing the day away on a shore in Washington Heights. But I love this time of…

I don’t know what it is, maybe I’m working too hard but I feel totally and completely wiped of all energy. I don’t normally take naps but I’ve taken to taking…

Silk in Winter

monroesteele — Tue, 28 Feb 2017 03:22:07 +0000

There is something about wearing silk in the winter that thrills me. I love the juxtaposition of silky shiny material against the stark, cold, concrete, barrenness of New York City in the winter. I already rocked my silk dress a few days ago and now it’s this Tibi skirt. I love the cut of the skirt. It’s so unique and…

Fall is Fall, I can rock a sweater under my denim jacket, or my favorite leather jacket. But Fall inevitably leads to my least favorite season of all time,…

The Unfinished Church Bermuda

monroesteele — Tue, 25 Oct 2016 23:28:00 +0000

Alicia and I had just had ice cream from a little shop in downtown St. Georges and after lolly gagging through the colorful town and shops we began to walk uphill. We just wanted to explore every nook of St. George’s Town in Bermuda. The clouds were darkening and we knew it would rain soon but we were content to…

Gueras Fatim in the Tuileries

monroesteele — Tue, 11 Oct 2016 22:46:57 +0000

Before going to Paris, I had my heart set on working with an up and coming designer. I scoured instagram and came across Gueras Fatim, a women’s wear line founded by designer Fatoumata Guirassy in 2015. I fell head over heels in love with her clean yet unique aesthetic and we began chatting on Instagram and later connected in Paris.…
