The hustle of New York kept me from blogging for 10 weeks, but now that I officially have a mailing address in 10012, I'll be documenting my fashion intern life for the rest of the summer. After commuting 1 1/2 hours each way, 5 days a week, for 2 months, saying I'm relieved to be living in the city is an understatement. To have a small place to call my own, even for a small span of time, is a beautiful thing. I live in a relatively calm, yet vibrant pocket of the island, on Washington Square, and I am endlessly grateful to have to resources and support to make living in NYC a reality.

Here are some documentary photos of my first two months of interning at a lifestyle brand. Trains, skyscrapers, and Bryant park are all a recurring theme.
