Horse Shit ....... and a new Chanel bag pour moi! MIDTOWN NYC DAY

November 07, 2020

bonjour!!! et namaste....

Je suis alle a CENTRAL PARK to meet Miss I for some Pret a Manger sandwiches and a little stroll.

I was early and she was late so I had a really lovely couple of hours of sunlight to wander around midtown and the southern end of le park. I drank 2 coffees, smoked 7 cigarettes, and got asked out on 3 dates. I sat and stared at the Plaza hotel and chanted Eloise over and over in my head for manifestation. Midtown is my fave place ever to do nothing.

Miss I and I were supposed to go to an exhibition on Muslim Fashion at Cooper Hewitt, but it turned out it was closed! On a Friday..quelle horreur....

anyways... we ate, talked shit in sheep's meadow, and then found a massive pile of actual horse shit.

next we went to check out the shops. they were all boarded up because of the stupid election of our stupid government. pictured below is Miss I by the Apple Store. here's the deal (i think): like ten years ago, Apple built a massive glass box as entrance to their store. At the time, it was the most transparent structure in the world or something like that. This was important to them because it goes with their silicon valley, tech capitalism blablabla brand ethos...lol. Like two years ago, they tore the entire thing down and rebuilt it... to be even more transparent. Miss I snuck onto the construction site and took some incredible photos.... this will all be expanded on in her next art show. .. and yes, they have special gates, not boards, too keep the people out. fancy!

we headed to Saks 5th avenue to visit a friend who works in boutique there. Used the fancy bathrooms, looked at expensive lingerie, and considered getting a drink at the "bar".

The only living ladies left in New York.....

then GOD happened!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! after strolling and taking a little peak into a Russian vodka bar- we walked through times square, headed towards a parking garage to pickup Miss I's car. And in ghost town times square I found a new fucking Chanel bag!!!!! Ok so lately the peeps that sell designer handbags on the streets of Manhattan have been flexy AF. There seems to be sort of set of new rules for a lot of things in the city as we try to cautiously live covid19 life. Now, instead of having to go find the right lady outside of the right location in the special hat on Canal and follow her 5 blocks away, down on alley, and into a van to look at the interesting um... designer goods, there's way way more cute handbags literally just sitting on the sidewalk. Guys used to mostly just have boring, basic LVs out most of the time. So among a bunch of fuggly "Gucci's, some little YSLs, etc... is this fucking massive bag. and its PURPLE! I've been wanting a bigger Chanel for ages. I usually do about 1 purse a year (i like to wear them hard, things look nicer distressed). I had to do it. After a pretty long haggle sesh, and a trip to an atm, the bag was mine! I still think I was ripped off... but the guy drove a hard bargain. Im not even sure Chanel sells this size of this particular shape, but I'll wear it like they do. More photos of this bitch bag soon. i looked completely haggered after being outside for 10 hours. My makeup and extensions tend to sort of melt/droop off after 6..

After Miss I dropped me off I was exhausted and FAMISHED from my day of extreme leisure. Kiss came over after his work and cooked for us while I laid on the couch and took selfies.
