Chloe Norgaard

Chloe Norgaard is one of the first indie models to sucessfully make it to high fashion runways. Walking for Nicole Miller, Rodarte, Moschino, and Roksanda Illincic, Chloe Norgaard has constantly adapting hair, whether it is ombre blue and green or bright purples. She has been able to integrate her dynamic hair into all aspects of the fashion industry. Although some may describe her as a new Charlotte Free, I think Chloe exudes a much brighter enthusiastic vibe than Charlotte ever did. Chloe has a beautiful fresh face. She also has the greatest eclectic and pop cult street style, consisting of furry coats to tattoo necklaces. She has been featured in campaigns for Planet Blue and is an in upcoming Forever 21 campaign alongside Josh Beech. Chloe also has recently spurred my new craving to dye and bleach my hair dry.

Not Your Average Joe's




Despite their name Not Your Average Joe's is actually pretty average. Their menu does not particularly veer  off the typical pasta, burger, pizza assortment. However, I do applaud them because their food is tastes great at a pretty reasonable price. Alright I admit I did not have the fish or the pizza, but I just had to include them because they are so beautiful. Every single time I go to NYAJ I ALWAYS get the spring rolls. Although the vegetable to noodle proportion is a bit off it has a spicy and cilantro taste that is just impeccable. Not to mention that almost all the spring rolls in other restaurants (particularly Chinese take out places) are deep fried atrocities, and in contrast the rice wrap seems like a piece of heaven. I also HIGHLY recommend the Butternut squash couscous.

Lastly, Not Your Average Joe's, if you see this, I would like you to know that I dislike that you serve cold, not warm, bread. Also, the overly dim lighting does not give an aura of luxury, instead it feels cheap and is very irritating.
