Spring Vlog: spontaneous flights, learning Spanish, spending time in the sun 

Tbh, I like the iPhone vlog look. Seems more “down to earth and relatable.” Comes off more personable.❤

guys, could you share blogs with a similar vibe, please. Lauren's channel is very cozy and comfortable!

i love devocion for a latte, lunetta has amazing vodka pizza, tompkins square bagels, le fournil for pastries, ralph's italian ice is so good for a hot day, joyface if you feel like dancing, maiden lane has some good drinks, poster house, a museum dedicated to posters and i like mcnally jackson for books more than the strand bc of the way the strand's owner handled 2020 :)

your videos feel like a time capsule, like you've somehow preserved small moments of time in such a beautiful way that makes me so aware of the richness and impermanent nature of life. maybe it's the music but they're so peaceful in a nostalgic, melancholic way. really reminds me of the vibe from 'life is strange' video games

So glad you posted again! Can’t wait to watch this when the kiddo is in bed. 💛

recently found your channel and i love your vlogs! the filming, editing style, and music is just perfect.

I love the change you did with both old and new furniture,shelves,the mirror,you are so good in making everything cozy!!! Looks so spacious... So happy 4 you that you had this trip,books and good food,and i love your striped overalls by the way!!!

It's crazy how much difference a mirror makes! I don't know what it is, but a room without a mirror can end up feeling a bit soulless. (Except kitchens, which we don't typically expect to have mirrors). Your place looks gorgeous

I just came back from new york last night! We spent a lot of our time eating and shopping in soho. We loved La Cabra for coffee/tea & pastries, Upside pizza for a slice, Ho Foods (chinese) & Fish Cheeks (thai) were our fav restaurants!

For NYC, I enjoyed Variety Coffee Roasters, but what I found myself going back to was Maman, it’s a French bakery cafe with tons of locations. Their seasonal drinks were amazing. Washington Square Park is fun for people watching, and Strand Bookstore is a must. Enjoy a late dinner literally anywhere on St Mark’s Pl in the East Village. Have fun!

Long time no see! Glad summer is finally here ☀️⭐️🫶

i'm so happy for new video! thank you for filming! i really like the way you show your lifestyle💌

Oh you are just beautiful people living this life and enjoying it. Looking at that birthday part of the blog and almost teared up. Love people! And the vibes you all give

Love how the living room is looking! The 2 rugs & new mirror etc 🖤🖤🖤

The new rug is a brilliant idea. Please show us more of your home.

for your NYC trip, definitely check out Book Club Bar in the east village, also Veselka's has very yummy pierogis, and mccarren park/parkhouse/pool is just fun!!

I live in NYC. Trendy but amazing spots: Coffee: La Cabra (Soho and East Village), Sey (Bushwick), Dayglow (Bushwick) Matcha: Kettl (Greenpoint), Sorate (Soho) Eats: Cervo’s (LES, amazing amazing seafood. Recommend getting on a waitlist now), Dame (similar to cervos, amazing, also get on a waitlist now) ***anywhere buzzy is going to require waitlist or looking for a resy right around now. Reveli (really cute luncheonette in soho) Lucia Pizza on canal. Favorite slice right now. Tacos: Los Tacos/ Los Mariscos, Taqueria Ramirez, Esse Taco(super new, from the Pujol team), Los Hermanos (on starr st), there’s so many spots Galleries: Lots of stuff to look into in Chelsea (West 18th-25th ish). Whitney Museum is also nearby. Have so much fun!!!! :)

If you stay in Chelsea, or just visit that area, stop in the Chelsea market and go to the stand for Seed + Mill, which is a tahini and halva shop. You can get tahini-drizzled ice cream at it is so glorious!! The halva is also delicious and STUNNING, looks like big fluffy, fancy cartoon cakes. They will cut pieces off so you can try a ton of flavors. Sweet but not too sweet. Perfection.

I just love the coziness of your vlogs and the effort you put into them to make them comfy and special❤ hope your NY trip goes super well

i'm really obsessed with ur voice Lauren, like it's very nice and beautiful, it reminds me of the Lorelai's voice (Gilmore girls) it's fantastic ♡

First time I've actually seen u smile properly...keep smiling!❤

Yeaaah, Phantom of the Paradise is turning 50! I knew the folks in Winnipeg would throw a party about it! I wish I could go there!

Read the Dry Heart and loved it. While in Berlin I spotted her other books published in a beautiful edition and bought the five of them. I really liked the Dry Heart and love the way she portrays men and women. Nice to see you again 😊

My twin lives in New York so my favorite places to go when I’m there is Gordo’s catina, amazing tacos like truly wow and human relations bookstore, the staff are so friendly and knowledgeable, great selection

AAAAH THE BOOTS ARE MY DREAM BOOT TOO. AMAZING

Oh I love that Lingoda has a partnership with you! I really love their plataform ☺️

your new camera looks so good! iphone is good too, but this is also really nice

Hola desde Puerto Rico❤ acabo de encontrar tu canal y me encanta es super relajante ❤

Hey Lauren!! So excited you're coming to new york. My favorite bagel place is Brooklyn Bagel in Chelsea, favorite bookstore is the Strand UWS and westsider books used bookstore. Oh! and my favorite coffee place is solid state coffee UWS. Enjoy and lmk if you need any more reccs!!!!

Yesssss was waiting for this 🩷

Sleep no more is a must in New York! Such a crazy experience

That amazing that you are learning Spanish

Yessss tankinis are so back in this summer

topos and honeymoon in ridgewood

Beautiful vlog 😊

omg, I live in new york! east village books is great. the strand is probably the most popular though. I’d recommend the lower east side for little shops, galleries, and coffee as well. chelsea has the bigger more commercial galleries. if you end up in brooklyn, unnameable books is great and the cotton bean has the best matcha in the city imo. have so much fun ❤️

New York Recommendations! My favorite coffees are Partners in the West Village and La Cabra (they also have amazing pastries and sourdough) in the East Village. Best slice is L'Industrie (in Brooklyn or West Village). Fun bookstores to check out are the McNally Jackson near the Tin Building and Three Lives bookstore. If you're looking for an amazing, slightly fancy dinner out, Wildair in the Lower East Side is phenomenal. Also if you make out to Brooklyn, Salter House is the sweetest store. Hope you have the loveliest time in New York!

I love the bathing suit ❤ definitely reminds me of my mom in the 90s too.

Albertine is the prettiest bookstore - it's on the Upper East near The Met. Spoonbill & Sugartown Books in Williamsburg has the best curation - lots of poetry and art books as well. For second hand books, The Strand is always there for you, but my favorite used shop is Unnameable Books in Prospect Heights (they're also open late, which is great - love going to Weather Up down the street for a cocktail and then book shopping - nothing better!). Stella Dallas (Williamsburg) is great for curated thrifting. L Train vintage (multiple locations) for a less expensive thrifting experience that's also well organized. Via Carota doesn't take reservations but if you get there right when they open you can easily get a spot - sit at the bar and order their greens salad. You have to have a bagel, of course, but we'll all claim our local spot is the best one (mine is Olde Brooklyn Bagel Shoppe - it's incredible!) but almost all of them are great! If you do stay at the Chelsea Hotel, the Chelsea Cafe is right there and is so darling and tasty. 787 or Sey for coffee!

9:05 Akima💫!!! Disfruté el vídeo. Esperando los videos de NY. ❤

Love your videos

Coffee in NY : Dayglow, Sey, La Cabra, Loveless!

La Cabra is amazing for coffee and cardamom buns!

new york bookstore recommendations are spoonbill and sugartown books in williamsburg, three lives and company in greenwich village, books are magic in cobble hill, a good indie chain is mcnally jackson (especially the seaport location which has a coffee shop inside) and they also have a stationary shop called goods for the study, molasses books, human relations, book row, all three of which are in bushwick, dear friend books, the word is change, and playground annex, all three of which are in bed-stuy. hope you have a fun trip!

Definitely go to Printed Matter in NYC :)

side pancakes!!!! yes!!!!!

Go to Book Club Bar in NYC! A very fun vibey spot, part bookstore part wine, cocktail, and coffee bar

Cooper Hewitt (museum), Wave Hill (public garden), Tacombi, Mermaid Inn Oyster Bar (West Village Location), Kinokuniya (Japanese bookstore), Green-wood Cemetery (just a gorgeous place to walk around), also second Fish Cheeks (the food is soooo good!)

You have the go to “The Hungarian Pastry Shop” by Columbia University! It is next level delicious 💛

I think you would loooooove greenpoint in brooklyn when you come to new york! check out feng sway and all the great vintage shops around there :) also a great plant store called Tula thats super cute. Theres some amazing bookstores in brooklyn like books are magic, spoonbill and sugartown, center for nonfiction, and greenlight to name a few! And then in manhattan sweet pickle books is one of a kind. Win Son has been one of my go to restaurants lately (great bakery across the street) and rolos in ridgewood is fantastic. I could go on and on about bars since it really depends on the vibe but I've been going to maracuja a lot (bunch of great bars around there too) and beauty bar by union square. Oh I would also check out friends nyc in bushwick for lots of fun gift things-- some great stores and bars around there too :)

John’s on 12th Street for the most classic NYC Italian experience. Waiters are dressed all fancy, and they have a huge wax candle in the back that’s over 100 years old! Cafe Reggio in the West Village is also a cool place for literary history. They have their original espresso machine (they also serve giant lattes!) Stella Dallas in Williamsburg has the most stunninggggg vintage pieces and Quimby’s is a cute book/zine store right around the corner… The list is so long 😂

My best place to eat in NYC, rosemary’s in the west village 😊

love love love

for nyc~ if you’re in the east village check out the craft beer bar burp castle (good place to read, as you have to whisper or will be shushed by the bartender lol). and a fav for great korean food is cho dang gol on 35th. enjoy your visit! and if you want to visit the MoMA i can put you +friends on our guest list :)

Bunny is a great restaurant! :) i think you would like it

Definitely go to Win Son in East Williamsburg. Chinese food meets American. Cool people, good vibe. There is Variety coffee also in East Williamsburg in grand st. Great coffee and cool vibe, good people. Leo’s is a sourdough pizza restaurant in Williamsburg that is to DIE for.

New York recs! Favorite bookstores are Three Lives & Co in the West Village, Book Culture on 112th in Morningside Heights, and Books are Magic on Smith St in Cobble Hill BK. Some favorite restaurants by neighborhood: Joseph Leonard, Buvette, Via Carota (West Village); June Wine Bar and Ruthie Wine Bar (Cobble/Boerum Hill); Winner and Bar Vinazo (Park Slope); and Faun, Lalou, and Leland (Prospect Heights). Court Street Grocers is also an amazing sandwich shop in Carroll Gardens. And Riverside Park on the UWS is my favorite park :)) If you can see Illinoise on Broadway, you must go!!!!! It is a dance-based adaptation of Sufjan Steven's album Illinois and one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen in my life.

Missed your videos! post moooreee.....

Joes pizza in nyc is the best!

if you're in NYC you have to visit Bluestockings -- queer, sex worker owned cooperative book shop downtown that has the best feminist lgbtq lit collection and great vibes. And Smorgasburg, its every weekend open air market different food vendors literally anything you can think of (they have one location in Manhattan and 2 locations in Brooklyn).

k-beauty is great 👏🏼👏🏼

I like the camera it has a great quality... could pls tell us about the brand, thanks ❤

Sey coffee in Brooklyn 🫶

i spent a few months in nyc last year and my favorite spots were: FOR FOOD: absolute bagels (upper west side) and super taste (chinatown). both incredibly affordable and INSANELY tasty!! FOR BOOKS: strand (a classic), out of the closet (in brooklyn next to atlantic terminal. they’re a thrift store and all the profit goes to providing free HIV testing, the books are really affordable and the selection is usually great! also there’s a salvation army a couple of blocks away with more books for a great price), books are magic, community bookstore, unnameable books, and a little unrelated but i LOVE the NYPL gift shop. also, for reading outside, i highly prefer prospect park over central park. much less crowded, a lot less touristy, much more family-friendly! when i was there, i put on my bikini, brought a beach towel and would spend lazy afternoons sunbathing and reading without anyone bothering me. brooklyn bridge park pier 6 is also a great place to read, especially around sunset. the view is mesmerizing, it’s a great place to have a picnic or just to vibe. FOR ENTERTAINMENT: i think the met is a must for everyone who goes to nyc, but the museum of moving image is HIGHLY underrated. if you’re into cinema, check out analogfilmnyc.org when assembling a schedule to see which films will be screening while you’re there. i was lucky enough to watch 2001: a space odyssey in 70mm at an empty theater and it was truly life changing. you can also check @nycrhps on instagram to see if there will be a screening of rocky horror picture show with a shadow cast while you’re there, they’re incredible. if you want to people watch, washington square park is THE PLACE to do it. not only is that the area where i spotted a couple of famous people, but everyone there is WILD. there are artists, musicians, groups of friends, vendors, and the scariest people i’ve ever encountered, so be careful. but like, on pride there was a guy with a pet snake there and everyone jumped on the water fountain to deal with the heat. if you want to be surprised, go to wash. if you want to buy those classics new york souvenirs, DONT DO IT IN TIMES SQUARE!! everything is three times the price!! buy them near penn station, or if you’re lucky you can find keychains/bottle openers for insanely cheap near south ferry.

hi Lauren! What type of camera did you use? The quality of the video it's really good 🌷🌷🌷

Greetings from Kyoto,Japan❤..how’s your cat doing. .❤

McNally Jackson is probably the best new bookstore in NYC-they have locations in soho and seaport (and I think by Rockefeller center too?) and a couple in Brooklyn-Williamsburg and downtown bk. My favorite used bookstores are Topos in Ridgewood and Molasses in Bushwick. Spoonbill and Sugartown in Williamsburg and Book Club Bar in the east village are also great. Champers Social Club in SoHo is pricy but super cute and has good food and drinks. If you like southern food Pies n Thighs in Williamsburg is good. Cafe wise I personally love the lost draft in soho, rhythm zero in greenpoint, honeymoon coffee shop in Ridgewood, the Maman location in greenpoint, headrest coffee in bushwick.

a pimple patch works

Food: Edith’s in Brooklyn for lunch and Vinegar Hill House for dinner. Matcha: Kijitora. Shop: Big Night. I have sooo much more but not to overwhelm you these were my top faves! I also stayed at the Penny in Brooklyn which was incredible. Their rooftop bar/cafe is also ace. 🤍

i have a lot of restaurant recommendations for nyc, lemme see… if you like korean food, there are some really good and not Crazy pricy places like: cho dang gol (my favorite manhattan restaurant), and her name is han (both are near ktown).

İ love the vibe and everything but pls change the background music it's feels like horror movie

Why don't you use soap to wash the dishes?
