Consider this graphic a basic guide of whats going on in “Artsy” Brooklyn these days. Clockwise from top left:
- Macbook. As seen in coffee shops everywhere.
- Aviator Glasses. As seen in the movie Top Gun.
- Flannel. Made famous by Kurt Cobain circa 1992.
- Prada Eyewear. As seen on the L-train commute.
- Bianchi Pista. Fixies are less a trend for the band of hardworking bike messengers.
- Mac and Cheese. Hands down an American favorite.
- Sparks. Think of it as orange soda laced with moonshine.
- Vans. Never out of style. Slip-ons for playtime.
- Cheap Monday. Ladies: Tight jeans are the way to a man’s heart
- Swing Jacket. They’re not everywhere yet but on their way.
- M.I.A. Music that goes well with tight jeans.
- Country. Works well with whiskey. And whiskey works with anything.
- Budweiser. Another American classic. Goodbye PBR.
- Americano. (to go!) Notice a trend in “Americana”? Me too.
- Pirate boots. We’ll see about this last one. But ladies love their boots.
There. You got a quick visual taste and look at what our big city has to offer. Its OK to recycle!
Why Asheville is rules in cool… We bring our own to-go cups and drink beer from the five local breweries. And don’t even start with the moonshine….
