All of the episodes are on Youtube and if you’re a nostalgic reality show nerd like me, you’re welcome. For those who aren’t familiar it’s an old MTV show that follows Tommy Hilfiger’s daughter Ally and her bff Jaime around NYC. Watching the daughter of the America-obsessed designer Tommy Hilfiger say she doesn’t understand “American, um, uh, uh, products at all” while scarfing down crudités is truly the “Rich”ness of the show! They say the most insane and dumb shit sincerely and I still love it. A true study on delusion. A horror reality show. Def not for everyone. They dress like we do now so there’s style inspo too if you want to watch it on mute. Some might call it nauseatingly cringe, but I like to live on the edge.

đź“şIf you like the messy fashionista city girl aspect of shows, then I'd recommend The Zoe Report, The Hills and Kell on Earth. These are more reality TV and I honestly think that makes it better. More entertaining and engaging.

đź“şi used to watch this when i was a child with my older sister. rewatching as an adult is so awesome. they say the most unbelievably uncouth stuff and the drama is oh so delicious. all of the photoshoots are bad. the kardashians wish they could make this kind of gripping content

📺Even though I am a certified Bravo Boy™, I do have a soft spot in my heart for MTV’s reality programs. My best buds and I have spent hundreds, if not thousands, of hours watching the Real World, the even better spin-off The Challenge, and of course, Are You The One. The show is basically about a bunch of young, hot people who all “suck at relationships” and are trying to find their Perfect Match: another contestant on the show, predetermined by the producers but unknown amongst themselves, who is meant to be their ideal romantic partner. I’m in it for the shitty laser effects, the snarky host Ryan Devlin, and of course, the never-ending drama. If you’re in need of a mental vacation, check out the first two seasons streaming on Netflix now.

🥾Cutest and best sourced collection of vintage designer in the city! They do pop-ups around LES often, but also have a qt website and IG. I got a pair of bleached raw denim 5351 Pour Les Femme jeans that I wear every day from one of their parties and an early 00’s Miu Miu mini skirt that I wore on NYE that I’m obsessed with. It’s ran by some of the hottest LES-ers <3 Shout-out Maya, Nancy, and Jeremie xoxo. I recently figured out that if you say “Heaven I Stay” aloud you get a cute surprise, so say it aloud right now to whoever’s near you :)

🍙Best Portuguese egg tarts and onigiri in the city and they’re like $1.25. Just be chill, be nice to them and bring cash. I went recently and this bro asshole was yelling at them to cut his little ass tart into tiny pieces and they told him NO about 23984x, so eventually I was like cut it yourself bro or just eat it and stfu! Not that kind of establishment. Just get your cute little pastries and onigiri, say thank you and go about your day :) The sponge cake is bomb and they have various bubble teas too.

🧴I swear by this shit for NYC winter. I’m a Georgia Peach so these dry ass NYC winters really do not sit well with me. Spray away on your face as needed. I feel like the only dewy bitch in these streets amongst a sea of chalky dried up New Yorkers :) but I share! Just ask, I keep that thang on me ;)
