Our Resident muse and fabulous friend Miss Wu has been gallivanting around NYC over the last several weeks, this true wild at heart has made the most of every minute spent and has gladly shared with us some of her favourite snaps. We are ever so grateful that she has taken some time out of her hectic schedule and in turn we want to share these with you. We are green with envy as Miss Wu rocks it out at rooftop parties, strolls down Conney Island and picnics in Central park, while looking ever so good! So sit back and enjoy these beautiful snaps and her stories... Miss Wu in NYC.One half of GFV hopes to reunite with Miss Wu in August, fingers crossed and with her pennies saved she'll be their to rock it out and cause some cheeky madness in this concrete jungle. Aha just thinking about it makes us want to dance and do a jingle to Jay Z's Empire State of mind.

Hey ladies,
So I was joined by my buddies Raae and Benny yesterday and we hung around Williamsburg and checked out some vintage stores.We stumbled across Mystery Train this random hidden vintage store at the end of a street. Benny picked up an 'He-man' curtain and Raae got some mini mushroom sculptures, they had lots of vintage peanut t-shirts and a retro feel, also the guy there served us beer as we looked around and gave us lots of discounts (Mystery Train Vintage).This under-the-radar vintage shop dresses some of the most dashing bands in Brooklyn—and at dirt-cheap prices. The shop boasts an insane selection of 1980s pumps, as well as vintage-inspired, Mad Men-esque feather crescent hats.Then we went in search of Flores Vintage Clothing as suggested by Jennywhoa. The store had a colourful selection of items, but I guess it's just the luck of the draw if you happen to find a diamond in the rough.
Today I was around the L.E.S. and went to the corner of 1st Ave and 11th st which turned out to be vintage heaven, they had a Buffalo Exchange outlet (they're also in Williamsburg and Chelsea) next to some other quality vintage thread stores, think they're right up your alley ladies. Sorry was too out of it from last night to think to take a photo of the stores even though I was loitering outside for ages sucking up some much needed ice coffee. OK, that's all for now!

Hey ladies,
I'm living it up in New York and had an awesome weekend. I was at the mermaid parade on Conney Island and then ended up at some random Penis magazine warehouse rooftop party that was kinda diirrrtay. But there was this one hot girl at the party and I knew that I had to take a photo of her for you ladies.
Let me introduce to you Miss Jennywhoa, yes that is her name! And her fabulous dress is from a random vintage fashion store where she hopes that the owner is still alive as he is weird and old. When you plan to join me, check it out:
Flores Antique Clothing
529 Grand St, Williamsburg.
Her advice is call up ahead to make sure the store is still there and that the owner is still alive...?!?!
You can follow Jennywhoa on tumbler, she's a self proclaimed comedian who likes to make everyday observations.
Enjoy!
