JCTC – Vanity Gallery Opening
Once a vice, now a virtue, we live in a new era of vanity, born at the crossroads of technology, narcissism, and celebrity. The public glorification of self has never been so easy, so colorful, and so acceptable, but what does this very public obsession with what used to be considered personal and private mean […]

Modera Lofts
Photos by Andy Mac I’ve visited quite a few buildings since I started my blogging journey, but none of them were like Modera Lofts.

ChicpeaJC presents: Classifieds
There is so much going on in Jersey City! Recently when brainstorming with my web dude from Binary Sprocket, we came up with the idea of implementing classified listings.

Makeup by Jenn Dockendorf
I met Jenn at a dinner party I threw almost two years ago and since then we’ve stayed in touch. To be honest, makeup is not my strong suit. My makeup regime consists of occasionally putting on concealer when I can’t hide my exhaustion, blush in the winter when my skin looks a little greenish […]
