New York dream with Marc Jacobs

Posted on August 27, 2014

Today I want to share with you my New York pictures taken exclusively for Marc Jacobs celebrating a launch of the brand new fragrance Daisy Dream. Daisy Dream is all about dreams, and since mine is to move to NYC, every time I spray on this flowery scent I picture myself laying in a flowerbed in Central Park surrounded by this noisy, amazing city.

We took these pictures in Soho during the golden hour. Sun coming down between huge buildins, shining in yellow cabs – it looked beautiful.

If NYC is also your dream, as I’m sure it’s many people’s, you can click here to create your dream capsule with pictures of NYC for a little bit more of dozy dreaming. If you are one of the girls hanging on to google images, endlessly researching Manhattan this is a place for you, it combines my dreams, my memories and my wishes all about NYC. Your daisy dream capsule will be sent back to you in one year.

Hey guys, this is my first blog update from New York (a few more to come ) . It is a nice short break from London and I will be back with a fresh mind a lots of new ideas. New York is the most inspirational city I’ve ever been to and honestly I’m thinking about moving there soon. Do you know that feeling when sometimes you find yourself in a place that feels like you and it’s close to your heart? Well I had it for the first time when I came to Notting Hill almost 6 years ago, and now I’ve just felt the same in New York. My number one rule in life is make your dreams come true, so … We will see!We took these photos with Matthew in Soho, in the strong sunlight. It was 1 pm when I actually never take pictures for my blog at this hour. They turned out really cool despite this unflattering time of day. But let’s be honest, it’s New York, the most photogenic city in the world! I was wearing an off the shoulder dress, perfect for summery weather, Balenciaga bag , Converse sneakers (my favourite shoes at the moment), and gold Monica Vinader jewellery.

I was browsing my pictures from New York in February and I found this shot taken in Madison Avenue. It was a freezing morning in Upper East Side and we were on the way to the favourite local cafe for breakfast. I don’t have to tell you it was really hard to take an outfit photos when the termomether shows no more than minus 15 Degrees. This is the only shot we took, but I still like it, shows that New York vibe. I was wearing Balenciaga boots, COS coat and a lace skirt.

Other thing I want to tell you. I’ve just started my own ask.fm/alice_zielasko HERE. From now you can ask me a question. I’ll do my best to answer it.

New York, Manhattan

My last week’s trip to New York was short but absolutely amazing. I was invited there by Virgin Holidays to spend a few nights in The Surrey hotel located on the Upper East Side, which, in my opinion, is the most beautiful area of Manhattan. The view from my room, located on the 17th floor, was faboulous, especially early in the morning when I could watch sunrise over New York skyscrapers. The one possitive thing about jetlag is that you can’t sleep at 4 am, so you can see how a big city is waking up for a busy day. A view to remember!
The Surrey Hotel was located between Central Park and Madison Avenue. There were so many cool boutiques and restaurants around and great spots for taking photos. Unfortunatelly a freezing cold temperature didn’t allow me to take more shots outside. A friendly stuff in the hotel took care of us perfectly, so we were enjoying our time in a hotel between the shows. And I have to mention about the best breakfast I’ve ever eaten. It was a brioche french toast with maple syrop, orange butter and apple pear served in the hotel cafe. I wish I could prepare it by myslef at home.

Thanks a lot to the Virgin Holiday, The Surrey and All Saints for a great time! I’m already planning my next trip to NY in spring!

AllSaints F/W14 // New York Fashion Week

Posted on February 17, 2014

As you could see on my Instagram I went to New York for fashion week, for AllSaints A/W 14 presentation to be exact . I loved every single piece from the new collection: sherling coats and jackets, oversized blazers, to leather accessories: backpacks, bags and shoes. Everything looked very wearable, simple but with that ‘all saints’ rocky touch to it. Black is the colour I could wear most of the time, and that’s why I chose for that day an all black total look. A high, wide waist belt and pierced boots, both from AllSaints S/S14 collection made it. You can already find them in the stores.
We took a few outfit shots outside of the presentation in the Meatpacking District. It was minus 15 degrees and it was freeeezing cold. I wanted to show you the belt, so I took off a coat for two minutes to shoot.
