    Dining In TriBeCa For Two Under $60

    I have a deep fondness for Asian cuisine. I could honestly devour Asian food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner if I didn’t care about my soy and sugar intake *silent tears*. There is something so indescribable about the savoriness of a well-prepared Asian meal. And for this reason, I had to take a trip to China Blue. Located in the heart of TriBeCa, China Blue serves delicious authentic Shanghainese food that will leave your taste buds and pockets extremely pleased, to say the least.  The restaurant itself is tucked away on the corner of Watts and Washington street directly down the block from a breathtaking view of the Hudson River.…

    Cupcake Market Making Kanye Great Again

    $16 cookies? Sure, why not. Cupcake Market located on 74 E 7th Street in New York, NY specializes in handmade face art cookies.

    Starting Fresh! New Site, Same Girl.

    The Fashion Champ is starting fresh! *Cues marching band* I have thought extremely hard about this decision and decided that it’s best I start with a brand new palette. It is time for The Fashion Champ to get a facelift. I’m slowly but surely learning to embrace all things new. I’ll admit that it isn’t easy for me to accept the unknown. I don’t like to step out of my comfort zone, and I honestly dislike being faced with new challenges, but  I’m beginning to realize that new gives you the opportunity to discover different parts of yourself while being able to grow along the way. Starting fresh will allow me…
