I am not even sure why I am bothering with an intro for this post… I always wondered what kind of people actually read the articles in Playboy magazines since it’s hard to focus with such beautiful women gracing the pages. That being said, Rachael is special; She is smart, down to earth and hilarious […]
The Big Hair Girls go Corporate
Photography by Greg Pallante Anytime I meet someone new, they always ask me how ChicpeaJC started and where the hell I came from…. Even though I moved to Jersey City over 5 years ago, I came out of nowhere. I was never really out and about in the “Jersey City” scene and then suddenly I […]
Bobby Black
I hope my parents won’t read this post! While interviewing Dennis from Damaged Wear he told me about Bobby Black, the senior editor of High Times Magazine who lives with his wife, April, in the Heights. As soon as I heard about Bobby I saw a cloud of smoke in the air with my blog post title “High Times in […]
Tribeca Grain
One day, out of the blue I get a phone call from John Gondevas boss man of The Hamilton Inn. Lynn “Hello?” John “I have a story for you….about my friend Joe Wood” Lynn “Cool!! A Jersey City porn star?!” Ok… so Joe Wood is not a porn star, he is actually the owner of […]

80’s Working Girl Styles
Fall is upon us…which is my favorite season. The combination of a nice warm sunshine and a cool breeze is perfection… that, and it’s nice not being “shvitsy” for once. I snatched this amazing one of a kind 80’s deco style dress a month ago at the 6th Borough market from a mobile vintage truck […]
Crazy & The Brains
I found out about Crazy & The Brains after my interview with Verbal Phantom and Piss Mobb. Vincent “The Owl” told me to check them out and so I did…. I went home and internet stalked them. I remember being in my living room sitting on the couch with my iMac, I pressed play on […]

Chris is the lead singer and guitarist of punk band “Crazy & The Brains” (post coming soon) who I discovered after interviewing Verbal Phantom. I went to see them playing shortly after at Union Republic and took notice of Chris’s edgy punk style; Signature sailor hat, skinny jeans, torn tank, tattoos…He is definitely a stylish peep! […]
The Culture JC App
Last weekend was a whirlwind with JC Fridays, as you’ve probably seen from my post I was everywhere. When I made it home I crashed for a few days, and as a result had to forego an awesome party at 660 Studios for the launch of The Culture JC app. I enlisted stylish peep “The […]

All About Downtown Street Fair

If you are a true ChicpeaJC reader you know by now that one of my favorite things to do is going to markets/street fairs/festivals. Where else can you shop for cute things, […]
Denny Wenny
I’ve been waiting to write about Denny since I started ChicpeaJC. Not only is he the poster boy of a “stylish peep”; he is also a successful fashion blogger, works at Another Man’s Treasure and actually the person who planted the idea in my head to start a blog. About 6 Months ago I came […]

Jennifer Fein
Jennifer Fein is behind some of my best AMT Vintage outfits. She has an amazing eye and always pulls great pieces for me. Whenever she is working at the store I always see her organizing, putting stuff away, vacuuming, doing some sort of incense burning etc… She is clearly extremely passionate about the shop. Jennifer […]

Chicpea does JC Friday’s
Last time I covered JC Friday’s I was only about a month into blogging about Jersey City so I was pretty clueless about all the cool people and things going on. Now after 130 posts on all the awesome people that make this city so freaking cool… JC Friday’s is actually THE most stressful evening […]
Strip
It’s been a while since I posted a Hip Hop dance video so let’s take a break from the vintage fashion world and bring it back to the streets… or in this case the bedroom. Chris Brown is not my favorite person but I do really like this track, my class especially really feels this […]
