In the nineties, Smylonylon was an incredible universe on Lafayette between Spring and Broome that sold deadstock seventies clothes and mixtapes by the DJ Alex Gloor. My favorite store ever. Smylonylon’s influence on fashion endures, and if you know you know. Long ago a great guy on the internet converted my Smylon tapes to MP3, and I’m down to trade mixes with other collectors. Im especially looking for Smylonylon 17, 20 and 25. I have Smylonylon 1, 4, 6, 18, 19, 21, 22, 23, 28 and 29, as well as Arkle & Sparkle and tynynyny 1 & 2. If anyone knows what I’m talking about, DM me.

Count on Fantasy Explosion to unearth the New York City vernacular vintage of your faded memories. Count on An Honest Living ™ to invent it as it should have been. These high-quality limited-run garments celebrate the city’s familiar but niche institutions - OTB, Con Edison, Fung Wah, etc. I bought the cap celebrating the essential 1990s hip-hop club the Tunnel, and if anyone would like to sell me the Peter Luger coach’s jacket in XL, hit my DMs.

My style is at an all time high due to the fact I am currently single and have a lot of time to focus on me, myself, and I. I also live down the street from the location on classon which is run by these brilliant Puerto Rican women who wash everything in the store and take no shit. They never give me anything off and they’re so passive aggressive if you’re in the store pass closing. I love it. I have a whole process when sourcing vintage. Everything I wear has come from this store! The prices are super cute

Red Bull is amazing. The last time i went dancing i drank a dozen of them. Each one was flawless. I wish I had invented Red Bull. Original is great, but I usually go with Diet.

Patato Latkes are iconic. A Hanukkah delicacy. Theyre really hard to make and can often be a disaster, but I recommend them passionately. My mom makes them really well. Eat them with sour cream and applesauce. HOT!
