What do you love most about New York?
In New York there is endless inspiration. My favorite thing to do is people watch, and I recently learned of this word ‘sonder’, which is the ‘realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own.’ That is always the feeling I get when I am outside in the city; it takes you back from your own selfishness and makes you realize that no matter what, the world will keep going. Honestly I find that comforting, especially to know that everyone has hopes and dreams, and in New York what we are all doing is trying our best.
What do you find most inspiring about this city
Other than that ‘sonder’ feeling, it is also inspiring in the way that you are constantly surrounded by architecture, fashion and food. I guess that is with most cities, but to New York there is a grit that you can’t find elsewhere. People are really and truly themselves. You can feel like you are in Europe in one area and China in the next. That constant surrounding of different cultures is so beautiful. New York is never boring.
How do you feel The New York bag reflects the essence of the city?
The New York bag is stylish, effortless, and practical — all characteristics that fit in a New Yorkers wardrobe. You need to have space and functionality — to me, I cannot go about my day while wearing something fussy. You can fit everything you need whilst looking chic, and that to me makes for the perfect New York bag.
