I love New York even if I  haven’t been there. I feel like I’ve been a part of it because of all those movies and TV shows I love set in this eclectic and passionate city.

In fact the closest I’ve been to New York was when I met Sarah Jessica Parker, Carry Bradshaw, The Sex and the City girl herself!

My second closest to experiencing New York was at the launch of Donna Karan New York (DNKY) My NY #DNKY #MYNY in Manila held at Rustan’s in Makati last week.

A pop-up store recreating a corner of the busy streets of Manhattan where carefree and spirited people abound.

Urban chic girls doing their business, chit-chatting with friends and colleagues while munching on yummy New York street foods!

There’s also fun interactive activities to do at the pop-up store like puzzle games, name that tune kinda game and yes photo-booths!

Yes New York is filled with paparazzi too! Hahaha!
Albeit the New York feels, the Filipino in us will never ever be ignored. Which is obvious in our love for selfies and groupies!

With Marj, Julia, Phoebie and Sophie

With Rochelle, Ruth and Jen
With Pia and Maxene MagalonaI think the launch brought New York in Manila for a bit and experience the essence of DKNY MYNY fragrance, spontaneous, playful and bold like DKNY latest it girl Rita Ora.

Btw, if you notice the bottle was designed to look like the city skyline of New York! Super nice!

Oh! If you are asking how the scent smells like, it smells like a busy New Yorker woman, powerful, femine and elegant.

DKNY MYNY is now available at Rustan’s and your favorite fragrance stores or check out DKNY Fragrances on Facebook.

P.S. I’d like to thank SampleRoom.ph for this fun New York in Manila experience with the DKNY MYNY Philippines launch.

Stay gorgeous everyone!
