Have you ever been on a street, in a darling city, surrounded with your all favorite things? You know, that coffee shop that has the best Chai Latte and your favorite shoe store discounted every single day for people only named “enter your name here.” Imagine living in a fashion mecca like Carrie from Sex In the City, walking down the street and seeing “the hello lover Christian Loubs” in every window. This, my friends, is what owning your own avenue would be like. A dream come true, a miracle on Shanell Avenue, my very own candy land! So, I did it! I own my own avenue complete with exposed brick buildings lined with Japanese Cherry Blossoms, and the cutest quaint but glamorous bodegas on every corner. Okay, okay not quite. I didn’t physically purchase an avenue, but a girl can dream, can’t she?! I envisioned it, built it, and hope to inspire you all through “Shanell Avenue.” Join me for a stroll down my fantasy avenue and maybe, just maybe you’ll find yourself amongst your fantasy styles too!
