I was so happy to run into Naomi from Teen Vogue on Thursday at the RVCA presentation, who is just the sweetest girl ever and gave me some awesome California girl in New York tips that were most definitely put to use. And to top it off, she invited me over to the Teen Vogue HQ, which is obviously an offer I couldn't turn down.
Colin and I cabbed to Times Square in the rain on Tuesday, felt like complete impostors talking to the people at the Conde Nast front desk, and made it to the right floor only after first taking the wrong elevator (hey there were a lot to choose from). It was a relief to see Naomi's smiling face coming out of those glass doors, and a little surreal to be taking a tour of the offices of one of my favorite magazines in existence. We walked the hallways outside Amy Astley's office, met some fabulously dressed Teen Voguers, and even got to check out the accessories closet in a complete daze as Colin snapped photos of my slack-jawed self. Naomi gently guided us away and we went down to Bryant Park to get some coffee and talk about anything and everything..turns out we both had all kinds of questions to ask each other. All in all an amazing experience - thank you Naomi for being the perfect hostess!
Chatting with Andrew Bevan..LOVE this man, he's so much fun. It seems he had just been shot by Altamira NYC in his masterfully rain-appropriate outfit and sweet buckled boots.
I made Naomi pose cheesily with me in her gorgeous Alexander Wang dress and DIY necklace. 
Hmm Colin seemed more apt to document the men's clothes.
Heaven.
Then we of course had to document each other in Bryant Park. Colin wears a Ralph Lauren blazer, American Apparel V-neck, Gap jeans, secondhand belt, Vans, and Spy sunglasses.
Me in vintage Tshirt, collar, and cuff, Erin Wasson x RVCA blazer, Forever 21 skirt, Promiscuous heels, Target socks, Urban Outfitters men's hat, and Givenchy bag.

Hey Rumi, I was just wondering.. what's your nationality?
wow you really so lucky! you sure have been doing some amazing networking. what do you do for a living? for some reason i seem to remember you are a freelance stylist? xo

One word: fabulous.

Not lucky. You probably deserve it. :) From what I gather from your blog, you work in the industry and seem super mature and poised and wonderful. :)
*jealous*
and the closet...wow i could live in that!
You look beautiful as ever - that blazer was made for you! Your boyfriend looks fabulous also - good to see him in front of the camera.
Are you still working for the magazine you used to work for? I know a couple of people have asked but you haven't really talked about your occupation lately..and what does Colin do? so nosy :) xxx
me thinks that you belong here in nyc!
Great outfits!
Both you and your boyfriend look like models!
lucky bebe!
glad you've had some great adventures lately :)
Now you have to visit the Hearst Tower- home to Harper's Bazaar. Now that building is insanely gorgeous! I am surprised Conde Nast hasn't moved to nicer diggs!
Gasp! That shoe closet! *I die.*
Wow, now that's what I call a trip! That closet, it's amazing!
You both looked very fabulous.
that blazer is amazing, and wow, NY is suiting you just fiiiine!!
and yeah you guys look like models:)
lucky you! :) that blazer is soooooo fine!
really nice outfits:)
this ny trip keeps on getting better & better...
crazy crazy jealous
argh.x
RUMI - if you moved to NY, it's obvious you would be living a pretty high-profile existence in no time.
I mean, how long have you been there and you've been to NY fashion week, Erin Wasson's apartment and Teen Vogue?
I think NY is calling for Rumi, lol! Just don't become an annoying cobrasnake girl and I'll be with you all the way! Haha!
xx
I think your shoes look even BETTER with socks on. Sweet as.
I'm absolutely addicted to your blog btw, love your style. Wish you the best of luck!
oh, you are so beautiful ! :)
Cool :)
Oh. My. Goodness. BIG congrats to you on all of these amazing experiences!
Rumi, this is a totally random and hopefully not inappropriate question that must be asked. Where on earth do you buy those bras from? Being pretty flat-chested, I find that I end up wearing slightly padded bras from the likes of Victoria's Secret that, even at 32A, make me larger endowed than I want to be (I'm just not used to looking that 'womanly'). Anyway, I liked some of the stuff you've worn under sheer clothing on your site, and thought you'd have some advice in general.
HOW DO WE GET OUR HANDS N YR BOYFRIENDS WORK!!
WE NEED TO KNW MORE!
MIGHT HAVE JOB OFFERS!
A NAME WOULD BE USEFUL!
GET IN TOUCH
OMG, my dream is to work at CONDE NAST! ur so lucky

Love the blazer Rumi, especially the slit in the back, so edgy. Love the boots of course!
he isn't really pulling it of...
is your t tie-dyed? and torn?
:/
nice though
That's great! I almost had a heart attack when I saw the picture of the shoes in the closet...I'll probably end up saving it on my computer to look at when I'm sad or something...lucky!
Very cute outfit for Teen Vogue-ing :)
ooh lucky! Love the blazer.
I am so unbelievably jealous.
You're prob. used to this but I gave you a style shoutout on my blog
OMG Rumi i want all thoses shoooes!!!
good you enjoy NY, i'm in Love with New YorK!!!
you look awesome as usual :)
i dont know if you knew this but you're on the elleuk.com street style page- http://www.elleuk.com/index.php/fashion/street-style/bad-girl-new-york-fashion-week/(node)/214041/(offset)/0
i was excited when i came across your picture!
lucky girl!
looks like you had an AMAZING time in new york at the show!
tee hee you were in my building!
you and your lover should SOOO be signed models!!!!!!!!!!! WHY ARE YOU NOT MODELS???!!!!!
WoW..! Je suis absolument jalouse!
(Merveilleux looks à part ça)
Outifts are getting boring. same look over and over again. And your boyfriend needs to get a look of his own... vests (previous post) is from 2 years ago. And his outfit on this post is well...blah. Every other joe wears a blazer/white shirt/denim combo-better fitting jeans would be good too.
Although, I must say...both of you are beautiful people.
Wow, that anonymous comment right before what I'm about to leave seems to be left by a split personality. haha
I agree though, you are both outrageously good looking.
What a great experience touring Teen Vogue, thanks for sharing!
OMG you're so lucky you went to teen vogue. that's such a good oppertunity. I love your style. i saw the picture of you in front of top shop and i cant wait until it opens!
soo cool you went to teen vogue
xxo
Zoe
Hi, sorry for commenting on such an old post, but that Ralph Lauren blazer that your boyfriend is wearing--has it been taylored? Or did it fit that well upon purchase? And I'd appreciate it if you'd give me an estimate on how much it cost >P
Thanks~
Jessica
Hi Kuriku, actually he hadn't gotten it tailored yet when this photo was taken but he's gotten it tailored since..hope that helps! I don't remember how much it cost though...sorry!
Really trustworthy blog thanks.
