Lola Y Maria - Chic Designer Fashions
To be fashionable....that is the question. Living in New York definitely provides a plethora of choices as far as genre of fashion, expense of fashion, and mark of fashion. You wanna be chic, sexy, and sweet? Go to Lola Y Maria located in the Lower East Side. I heart this place
Owner Gina Pagano not only provides fashion that is fun, carefree, and sexy, but she also primarily sells only Spanish and Latin designers. So, you are getting a different take on fashion from Lola Y Maria because the styles they carry have a flair to them. You can go to a million stores in NYC and find the same things, all ranging in different costs. Lola Y Maria provide designer ware which is affordable and well made. The staff is extremely friendly, they will make exchanges for you and they will ship to you directly.
Lola Y Maria also stands out because they host a lot of events which promote local artists and upcoming designers. I can always find a sexy little number to wear to an opening or something simple and classic for a little vacation beach trip. There are a number of flirty, chic dresses to choose from as well as bathing suits, accessories, shoes and cute tees. So, if you are looking for something fun to wear, fashionable yet practical, designer yet affordable, then Lola Y Maria is the place to be.

Fashion Soup
Squeezed between a FedEx and a neighborhood deli, this blink and you’ll miss it Fashion Soup is so small that it practically coined the term “hole in the wall.” That doesn’t stop locals and neighboring businesses from forming lines outside the shop around lunchtime.
A local mini haunt since 1997, Fashion Soup is renowned around Midtown for it’s diverse yet affordable samplings of soups. While they offer the basic staples such as Chowder and Chicken Noodle, you should definitely try the Morocan chicken with couscous or crab with shrimp. If you can’t decide which soup to try first, ask for a sample. You can get up to two free cups. Just don’t eat the samples and run. It’s tacky. All soups come with a bread and a fruit.
Want something to wash down that couscous with? Try an empanada. (Spanish for meat patties.) Besides beef they also offer a selection of chicken, potato, ham and cheese and if you stop by early morning bacon and eggs.
The staff is super friendly. Due to the size of the shop there are very limited stool seats, especially during lunch. If you managed to stop by during a slow period you can grab a seat by the window and read the magazines lying around for free. There’s even a large pitcher of ice water for your convenience. Be sure to stop by after 3pm. That’s when they slash the prices to ½ off.

Crudo Bar - Lower East Side
Sometimes you just want to go to a place that isn't crazy and overrun. You want a place you and your girls can go to have a nice conversation yet indulge in some nice male scenery without being harassed. You want a place where the music is good enough to get your booty shakin'. That place for me is Crudo Bar located in the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Crudo is one of those little gems you don't tell anyone but your friends about. The atmosphere is inviting and warm. You can feel the Spanish influence in its decor and its ambience. I love a place that has a nice attentive bartender and every time I visit Crudo, I get one. They have a good selection of wines and beers and of course your standard fare of liquor. Now, the best part of Crudo Bar....outdoor seating! The back patio is really nice when you want to enjoy the outdoors while drinking a refreshing cocktail. The patio at Crudo actually shares the patio with 1492 Food which makes for a nice neighborly atmosphere. I like to indulge in Tapas next door (1492) and then hit Crudo for a nice glass of wine and some Spanish flare. Good music, good service, good atmosphere and a patio to boot....what more could you want in a bar?

This newly renovated and re-invented Spanish/Tapas restaurant deserves a second chance. Sharing is the guiding principle here.
