ivory walls

E.B. White once wrote, "New York blends the gift of privacy with the excitement of participation." If you've never read his essay Here Is New York you should probably read it, A because two of my professors have already assigned it within the first month of classes and B because it's a really well-written description of the city and what it's like to live here. Saturday was practically begging me to wander the streets near Union Square, of course make a pit stop at Free People (where I found this top for 50% off- SCORE!!) and spend some time people-watching. It was the perfect combination of privacy and participation. And it was so New York.
