What and Where

They say when it rains, it definitely pours purses and shoes, tops and dresses and bangles and stilettos! It is also true when they say, you can't have it all! Sometimes you think you can but somewhere, somehow - some thing's gotta give.

We here at Twenty York Street ('coz you know it just ain't me right?), have been very, very fortunate to have been given so many opportunities to explore a lot of the things we want to do and venture into other things we didn't we can do or achieve. But that's the beauty of human nature, isn't it? There is that certain sense of tenacity and perseverance that no matter what, YOU will always prevail.

While we have been getting a lot of recognition and street cred these days, there are also those who are not quite happy about that. You know when people are so (or so it seems) supportive of you when you're just starting out but when things actually start to happen, that same support is not quite hot as it used to be. Yes?

So, as my friend Grace (the Media Guru, the + force + mind + energy behind the very successful Within Essence Production)always say... it's all about PERSPECTIVE.


And it is.

Do you agree?



much love.

Yes, I call them the fucking haters, let the hate, it speaks mountains about their own insecurity!

ML, I LOOOVE that blazer! And orange is so great, I'm in love with the navy/orange combo.

Just ignore, smile and move on. As long as you stay true to who YOU are then all will be good. You ARE a truely great person (I should know!) and that is why good things are coming your way!

i always thought i couldnt wear orange & yellow because im asian but ive been proven wrong! orange looks great on you, M!

i personally think that because there ARE so many bloggers out there in the world, its natural for the audience interest to shift every now and then. i think the best thing we can do as bloggers is just stay true to our voice and OUR perspective, and hey if there's a group of supporters who believe in what we say too, then great! but we just gotta keep on keeping on.

much love,
♡, Rosa T.

I love blazers, think they give such a great look, and really like it paired with the orange here! Cute, bold, and so strong.

I agree it's about perspective, but more, it's about attitude, which I would distinguish from perspective. =) There's a difference there, I see.

Love your blog!

This salmony orange hue with navy is a great color combination! I really love it (need to replicate it!)

I agree, be tougher than tough.

When your skin is thick, nothing can pierce you!
