from top to bottom: Lafayette Street and a burst of white spring flowers and Debut New York's minimalist storefront
Wow. Things are getting really busy these days. But that doesn't mean a girl can't take a time out to do a little windowshopping. Last week, I experienced a little spring fever and hit some cool little shops downtown. Here are some pictures from that glorious day...
above: a Michael Angel dress from Debut New York
One of my first stops: Debut New York, a wonderful showcase for emerging designers. We're going to feature an interview with the boutique's owner and curator, so I won't ruin the surprise... But do check out the store's website here!

Then, I stopped by the tiny curiosity shoppe style boutique, Kiosk, which features design objects from around the world, one country or region of the world at a time. On display this time were objects from America. Check out more here.

and... a peek at Nicholas Kirkwood shoes
I had to stop by Seven to say hello to some orphan shoes. If only I could make like Angelina Jolie and adopt them.

Off to First Lady favorite Zero+Maria Cornejo, which opened a new shop about two months ago. Love love the industrial storefront and the natural, light-filled interiors.

Last but not least, I leave you with this dreamy image from my visit to the studio of design collective, threeASFOUR. Their Chinatown studio was dreamy-- silver walls, mirrors everywhere. I interviewed them for a magazine and am really excited to share my guerrilla camerawork.

That Michael Angel dress is incredible.
Ooh yes, those Kirkwood shoes are gorgeous! Your photography makes me yearn to go shopping on the next sunny day.
Re: your comment, that is exciting news about the Be & D collab! I'm sure they will produce something great, can't wait! Also, thanks for the link-up, I've added you to my blogroll as well, take care :)
Looovely!
Kirkwood sandals, "depressingly awesome," and spring blossoms--oh my! This post was full of great eye candy. :)
Oh dear god...so much beauty in one post! x
Can I just say, your photography is awesome...I love the view of Lafayette Street and those blue shoes are giving me a total shoe lust!
Those shoes are so amazing. The sunshine always inspires me to get out and do a bit of shopping myself.

the first pic is amazing, I'd love to come to NY in spring one day..
These pics really make me miss New York. I lived there for a short 6 months in 2002. Good times. :)
Oh, helloo Nicholas Kirkwood. I would like to adopt you, too.
Thanks for your wonderful comments! Looks like a perfect outfit would be the Michael Angel dress and the Kirkwood shoes. I've had an awful time of it at work, and it's nice to read your comments!
Haute-Shopper: Can you tell I was inspired by your awesome guerrilla shop snapping style with this post?
WendyB, you would look awesome in it!
MizzJ: Thanks for visiting! Love your blog...
Wendy: Yay. Thanks for the comment :)
Lisa: It was a super lovely day! I guess I was inspired. My photography skills are kinda meh.
Frankie: Spring is calling me! Thanks for visiting.
Helen: Are blue shoes in your future?
Rachael: It's going to be rainy in New York for a bit before it gets nice again... These pictures are but a reminder of what was and will be to come.
Carlotta: Spring is so brief here. Fall is my favorite season. The beginning of it-- right after the damp humidity of summer.
Turtle: Wow-- what were you doing in New York for six months?
K: "Pick me! Pick me!" (shoes)
There's a Debut uptown--no? I think it's sort of near my apartment, but like an avenue over. I've never been to it but I've always enjoyed their window when I do pass by [usually without my camera because I actually unglue myself from it when I'm running errands around the UES]
ooo those are some amazing shoes - especially that blue pair!
great blog! i love the interviews
I am loving those shoes by Kirkwood! Wow...fabulousity!
Modelizer: That might actually be a different Debut uptown, than the one downtown... Same name, different concepts.
alissa: Thanks so much for visiting! The blue are really fabulous in person. Check em out!
The Bridal BFF: The Kirkwoods are really fabulous. Thanks for stopping by :)
