Let’s get one thing straight. New York is the fucking shit. It just is. And if you don’t agree with me, you need to get your head checked.

I landed last night and will be shooting here all week. I absolutely love photoshoots even when they are in LA (and I pretty much hate LA), so when they take place in NYC, I kinda sorta feel like my heart is going to pound right out of my chest.

I’m staying at The Standard in the meatpacking district. This is the kind of hotel where the chick who checks you in looks like Giselle, a pay per view movie costs $14.95 and your room looks out at Diane Von Furstenberg’s store and home. Call me shallow, but I eat this shit up. You wanna know what else I eat up? Get ready for it…..

The fact that I saw Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick walking down the mother f-ing sidewalk just blocks from my hotel last night! I am a huge fan of Scott Disick (I know, weird). I love his eyebrows and his sarcastic sense of humor and the fact that he can pull of seersucker pants. I am also a closeted Kardashian fan in general so this whole sighting just about made me wee my pants.

Alright, I’ve got a call time to make. I put together some posh delights that I would deck out my Manhattan pad with if I had one. Stay tuned the rest of this week for Color Me Carla Takes New York!
