ChicpeaJC is almost 3 months old. I remember when I first started I would tell people that I will only write about fashion, and fun shit around JC. I even specifically said that I had no intention to cover the art scene because honestly other than knowing what I like I really don’t know shit […]
Josi – Simply Adorable
I met Josi at happy hour…. Van Vorst park happy hour that is…. the time between 5-7pm where all parents congregate to take their babies/toddler/kids to run off the excess energy in hopes of a full night of sleep. Josi has a sweet boy about the same age as little Mia…. every time I saw […]
You Really Turn Me On
Whenever I listen to an MJ song it brings back my happiest childhood memories, of me my brother and sister dancing in our living room. My brother is the best dancer, and I learned a lot of my moves from him…. My brother used to rock the Jerry Curl, White suit with pleats… I wish […]

Pretty Girl Styles
This dress. I am in love…. On one of my many visits to Another Man’s Treasure in Jersey City, Jennifer Fein a stylist and future “stylish peep” pulled this dress for me. I had an instant connection, and then she zipped me up and it fit like a glove. I knew I wasn’t leaving the […]
The Dopeness
About a month ago we went to The Dopeness for the first time to have dinner, and I loved the vibe! Eating Mexican food while listening to hip hop beats = DOPE. The Dopeness is a cool spot, it isn’t just a restaurant, they have parties there all the time. Open Mic’s, Comedy shows, Art Exhibits […]
Grandma Downtown
When I first heard of Grandma Downtown, I pictured a cute italian old lady making delicious breads in her old school kitchen. Then I saw Krista, this cute sassy stylish chick , and tasted her delicious breads, I knew I needed to know the story behind Grandma Downtown. What’s your name? Krista Can you tell […]
Kari Pulizzano – Chicpea’s Girl Crush
Girl Crush alert!! I first laid my eyes on Kari at the WYLDLIFE/Wax Darts/Vomitface show at Lucky’s a few weeks back..

MBS
Some of you may already know this based on my fashion posts that I have a hat fetish…. ever since I was a kid my Ima (mom in hebrew) would dress me up in hats…. it continued into adult hood. At a certain point in college, you wouldn’t see me without a hat, it was my […]
Iz u down?
Iz u down? I love how hip hop music can totally get away with making up words/mispelling them etc… which is perfect for me! It makes my writing look sophisticated! I love this Kid Ink song, in fact the whole albums screams hip hop dance party! I teach every Wednesday at Base Gym in Jersey […]
Josirs
About two weeks ago, I made a really tough decision to leave my position at an awesome company that I have been working for 7 years, to pursue my passions in the creative world. This was a very difficult decision to make, taking the leap; leaving a company that was like family to me and […]
DJ Pastiche
I’ve been following Conrad all over the Jersey City Interwebs; Instagram, Facebook, Twitter…. Before I even met him I knew he was a “Stylish Peep” because he is a DJ and all DJ’s are cool in my book! DJ’s are selfless, their joy comes from other people dancing and having fun… they are like the […]
Smooth Criminal Styles
When we were taking these pictures I had the Michael Jackson song “Smooth Criminal” playing in my head; It was MJ’s 5th year death anniversary and that hat is almost exactly the same one he wore in the video. The weather in NYC was also a little weird and creepy…. RIP MJ. I got this […]
Pacific Flea

Milk, Sugar & Love Handles
Here’s the deal, if I could live off of Ice Cream I would. When I was preggers with Mia I was a walking cliché; I would head to the farmers market and buy a quart of half sour pickles eat them all on the way home. Then proceed to sit on the couch with a big […]

Barcade Jersey City
Jersey City is full of fun bars, restaurants and hangout spots…. but one of my favorites is Barcade. I don’t really go out that much, and when I do I usually like to hit the dance floor… but on those days where I want to just kick back with friends, drink yummy local beer and […]
