Hi Everyone.
My name is Max and I am a new TBF member (applause).
I just wanted to introduce myself. I am new to NYC and loving it. I live in the East Village and work in the Meatpacking District. You will most likely find me below 14th Street or in Williamsburg.
To inagurate myself into the TBF family, I wanted to impart some shopping advice. At the turn of each season, I usually make a personal look book for the season ahead. I take pictures from runway shows, store websites, blogs, etc and compile a small group of photos of the look I am trying to achieve with the upcoming season. Most of the things I find are on high-end websites or from high-end designers shows, but ultimately it helps me figure out what direction I want to move in when shopping. From here, I can usually find similar items at outlet stores or department stores for a fraction of the cost. Ultimately, it just helps me develop a sense of personal style that can be translated into a budget shopping experience. Try it out for fall or winter and tell me how it goes!
Best,
Max B
