This week is a special week. Because it marks 2 years since
I made New York City my home. I can honestly say that I’ve loved every minute
of living here. I know how clichéd that sounds. But can you believe that I
initially was not excited about
moving here? I had some reservations about how life would change for me. But it
really just took a few months to adapt and get into the swing of things once I
moved. New York City has a way of integrating you into herself, into making you
one of her own so that you know that this is where you belong. Moving here has
led me to some pretty awesome friends who are like family, given me some
life-changing experiences, and taught me about who I am. So thank you New York
for one hell of a ride so far. It’s been fun, crazy, psychotic, exhilarating, confusing,
overwhelming, joyous, and adventurous. I hope it never stops.
To celebrate my 2 years, Urban Mantra is hosting a giveaway!
We wanted to share a piece of New York with our readers. Say hello to this
lovely coffee table book: New York
Fashion Week: The Designers, the Models, the Fashions of the Bryant Park Era.
Since there is no New York City without the fashion, we thought this book would
make for a unique giveaway (and appropriate too, considering that NYFW just
ended!). This book is a collectible featuring photos from what is called the “Golden
Era” of Fashion Week, the Bryant Park Years (before NYFW moved to the Lincoln
Center in 2010). It’s a hardcover book with over 300 pages of picture, stories,
and exclusive interviews with famous fashion designers.
Entering the giveaway is easy. Please leave a comment below
to say you’ve followed and then actually follow us! You have 4 options for
following: Twitter @urbanmantra1, Google Friend Connect, Bloglovin', and/or Instagram
(@richat81). The winner will be announced on October 7! (Please
note that as much as we’d like to open this giveaway to our non-US readers,
this giveaway will have to be limited to our friends in the US).
Thank so much for reading and we look forward to your
comments!
