NYC

So we took a fleeting trip to NYC in Oct 09 (yes sorry we know this is back blogging) for work. Due to the fact it was a work trip seeing the RP family was proving tricky, but we did our best to see and embrace the many favorite individuals this city nurtures.

In no particular order here is what we did and for some there are no photos, thus proving the lack of photo focus on this trip. I know, its not a good habit.

a) Dropped off a Birthday gift to our special blog sister Besosyfotos in the shape of a personalized embosser to emboss future photos, paper goods and letters of love.


b) checked out a big flea market in midtown, and made Alex have to rag around manhattan on his motorbike trying to catch up with us to say good bye, sadly i missed him.
c) visited new homes of secret lovers. Tow wonderful friends have just got a new home together, one of which relocated to NY. So it was great to hit up greenpoint and see their sincere faces. This has also given birth to a great exchange of postcards, greeting, and snail mail. Something RP is very fond of. Keeping it old school.

(above is the back of their apartment door, adorable!)

oh and some killer photo on the fridge :)
d) ate lots of amazing mexican food and tried some new munch spots with my favorite friends, and also made some new ones :)





e) watch new lovers being sweet and smitten, warmed me up no end

f) chased lines around brooklyn that lead me to new thrift spots, stores and retail wonders, as guided by the magical Miss Sturges.

g) agreed with a wall implying Madonna should just give it up.

h) ate as much of the whole food salad bar as possible in Union Square.


i) stayed in the new Standard Hotel in the meat packing district. It was a total delight with every tiny detail well considered. Even the typography on the toiletries were divine. Good eggs too.



j) enjoyed some serious NY Pizza at the usual spot, i can still taste that slice it kills me.



k) went to the movies
l) ate more with Alex
m) sent too many texts to a lover
n) Thrift shopped like a bastard
o) had night time walks with a Canadian Home girl, neither of us know we were both in the city the same night. Thanks Ichat for letting that happen.


if i put any more i think this will get tedious, but as you cans see a great chance to see some fond faces.

atlantic concrete crush



So i just got back from NYC and have a bunch of photos to pop up from this 5 day trip. Sadly it was fairly work heavy so not half as much
squirrel type gathering of imagery as id of liked. Either way, grab your cameras and put this band on your ipod. Thats all you will need for a fulfilling day. Let me know how you get on. RP

24 hours Hamptons show downs

So last week we had the pleasure of our first RP venture to the Hampton's. Thanks to fellow bloggers Besosyfoto, ADF, and, The Fab Enthusiast, we took to the roads with The Hampton's on the radar. The hospitality was astounding, and views incredible. Our trigger happy army of photographers and stylistas took to the beach for various types of photo fun, some wine tasting, good food, and incredible company. We are eternally in debt for this trip with MF photos to follow as soon as they can be processed.
