'Queen of the Night' NYC: The Hottest Place in Town

Central Park Splashed in Coral

Central Park Splashed in Coral
Dear reader,How have you been lately? As you probably already know over the last couple of weeks I?ve been living in NYC. A few weeks I regard as: Hectic. Different. Unique. And certainly quite Difficult.Occasionally I receive the odd message from a friend sharing their friendly jealously for not being able to be here at the moment.

But, you know ? there is one simple thing we somehow tend to forget.
It?s not the place that makes the memories unforgettable.
Rather it?s the people you spend your time with that do so.
Unfortunately, I tend to spend my days mostly by myself, walking around, exploring the city, talking to strangers, sipping lattes at cosy coffee shops, taking breathtaking photos, breathing in the fresh air near the river, laughing cheerfully when some street artists ?hit the tram floor? on the way to Brooklyn showing ?how to rock the Harlem shake?.

A few days ago, however, I was accompanied by a friend. When D. was still here we went to Central Park for a long afternoon walk.

The sunrays were fondling our bodies and we were walking ahead and chatting about life.
This was our first time in Central Park and we were truly enchanted. Amazed by the stark contrast between the giant grey buildings that were encircling this somewhat still untouched by the firm hand of industrialisation piece of land, we climbed a little cliff and started taking photos, trying to capture the ?uncapturable.?

Turtles playing in the water.
Swans ? here and there.

Hyped up by the whimsical atmosphere D. used the occasion to make me have a traditional Hot Dog (And of course ensured to take a quick snapshot to memorise the moment). For those of you who still don’t know meat is the last thing I would ever eat. Actually I cannot even recall the last time I had some… Ops. Now I can – the other day in Central Park. ‘You are in New York. You SHOULD HAVE one!? her persuasive words still resonate in my ears.
Typing down this letter, I?m quite positive that I won?t have another bite any time soon, but I’m also as certain that I haven’t regretted for even a second agreeing to her suggestion. The memory she incited me to create was simply unforgettable. A memory shared with a friend somewhere, sometime in Central Park.

And yesterday while walking home by myself from Brooklyn, Fendi?s window caught my eye. I noticed the beautifully combined attire on the soulless mannequins. All dressed up in Coral, the mute dolls reminded me of Central Park and the lovely time D. and I had there. The cheerful colour was in stark contrast with the grey surroundings somehow immediately reminding me of the quirky D. running around ‘Saks’ in her aim to get all the clothes she possibly could. Shopaholic? You bet!

Well, the day I spent by myself and the day I spent with D. inspired me to create a coral look which incorporates my favourite combination – nude and coral in one, with a slight hipster feel to it.
A look inspired by a day spent by myself and a day spent with a friend.
The nude symbolising the reflective mood which was evoked by the impressions I gathered while wandering around Willimaburg, Brooklyn,.
And the Coral ? symbolising the bubbly laughter D. and I had, the moments of getting lost while trying to find the correct path out of Central Park, and the leg ache we got after countless of hours of exploring the magical piece of land situated in the centre of the city.

Ah.
One day in New York City spent with a friend…
One day in New York City spent by myself.
Both of which I’ll surely never forget. 
Are you also a fan of the Coral trend?
Love,
A.
