Handker ❤️s Adventure: The New York Edition
Everything to do, from where to stay, shop and eat in NYC!
Where to stay:
The Ludlow: the perfect combo of homey/cozy and a little fancy. The lounge bar downstairs has a great fireplace and I hung out for a morning just drawing and dreaming.
Shopping:
All the little stores on Mulberry, Mott, and Elizabeth Streets in SoHo.
My favorites: Esqueleto (beautiful eclectic fine jewelry) and nails from Vanity Projects. Love Adorned (more jewelry and a little bit of this and that)
Goods for the Study (for the stationery obsessed)
Le Labo: you will never smell anything as good as Le Labo
Eating:
Tacombi is a casual favorite. The esquites!
Russ & Daughters is right around the corner. I get the pretzel bagel with horseradish dill cream cheese.
La Mercerie was new to me this trip. It’s French and design-centered and just exquisite! Kiki’s is cozy and yummy.
From the show:
One of the reasons I love Shoppe Object is the light and bright feeling in the show space. Here’s Annie, our orders manager, perfectly representing the Hemlock vibe.
The whole show is filled with high-design goods which is just so inspirational to see.
These are companies that design things for the love of a color palette, a line, or a laugh: OMY, Ilex Studio , and Caminito.
