WE HEART NYC

Mar 06, 2024

We recently made the 20+ hour journey over to NYC to shoot our upcoming Fall/ Winter collection and meet about some exciting things in the works! It was a whirlwind week filled with inspiring people, retail therapy, Starbucks, giant pizza and yes even SNOW. You know us, we don't keep anything from you - so here are some of our favourite places we visited while in the big apple to add to your itinerary.

1. THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART

Wear comfortable shoes, listen to your favourite ambient playlist or use their audio guide for a more in-depth tour.

2. 2ND AVE DELI

If you want to perch up in a bit of an institution and enjoy a massive selection of house cured meats, cheeses or build your own sandwich with all the pickles, look no further. Hot tip, eat here for lunch then walk right around the corner to Dover Street Market for your retail fix.

3. DOVER STREET MARKET

Seven or so juicy layers of brands you usually can't ever try on or find in a physical space. A clothing museum of sorts but everything is for sale. There is a cafeteria on level one for those who need a coffee or wine in-between purchases.

4. MAST BOOKS

A beautiful selection of used and rare books close to our favourite coffee spot.

5. BOMI

Some of the most beautifully curated homewares and accessories we've seen in one store. Including pienbarendregt, ikoikospace and leocostelloe.

6. CAFE LEON DORE

A small cafe next to Aimé Leon Core clothing store. Highly recommend ordering the Greek Mountain Tea with a little honey. Super warm and detoxifying.

7. THE SOLOMON R. GUGGENHEIM MUSEUM

Dare we say we liked it more than the met? The building itself is worth the entry fee.

8. SCARRS PIZZA

Really delicious pizza by the slice/s across the street from Sandy Liang. Nothing like shopping on a full stomach!

9. ABRACO

A local feel coffee shop with house made breakfast bites. Recommend getting a Vichy Catalan (salted, sparkling mineral water) with your coffee of choice.
