The Surf Experience in NYC

WHAT: Hollister Window Display

WHERE: 600 Broadway

WHEN: Saturday (March 12), 7 p.m.

New York must have some of the best window displays in the world. Although Hollister is far from my favorite retailer they had this incredible window at their flagship store. A lot of people seemed enthralled by the experience.

The Upgrade

WHAT: Life Is Better with a Hotel Upgrade

WHERE: Soho Grand Hotel, 310 West Broadway

WHEN: Saturday (March 12), 9 p.m.

I got an email while I was at dinner that my room was being upgraded! It pays to know people in high places like Jesus' Niece. I came back to my room and was greeted with chocolate and treats—so amazing! The snacks were so tasty and the presentation was incredible.

Celebrity Sighting

WHAT: The Infamous Steve Stoute Came to Eat at Bubby’s

WHERE: Bubby’s, 120 Hudson St

WHEN: Sunday (March 13), 11:30 a.m.

The man himself, Steve Stoute, who is responsible for some of hip-hops biggest celebrity endorsements, came to Bubby’s for breakfast. Apparently it's one of his favorite spots for brunch. Steve was rocking a pair of Jordan IIIs in black, so I gave him his props. The wait at Bubby’s is usually crazy; they don’t take reservations and it is cash only. Trust me, it's worth the wait.

Superhero Wedding?

WHAT: X-Men Wedding Dress

WHERE: 93 Grand Street

WHEN: Sunday (March 13), 3 p.m.

I passed by this gallery on Grand & Green in Soho and stumbled upon this dress in the window. How interesting. I can’t see many females wanting to get married in such a dress but I can surely appreciate the art and the design.

It's the Roc!

WHAT: Sean Carter’s Offices

WHERE: New York

WHEN: Monday (March 14), 11:30 a.m.

Ummm, I guess I was just in the neighborhood.
