A Few weeks ago when we shot the Summer Jewelry feature, we stopped by Milk & Cookies Bakery on Commerce Street. It is located on a beautiful block full of brownstones, on a bit of a hidden street in the West Village. They have all the classic cookie flavors that you can think of, and my favorite is the simple sugar cookie. They really capture that nostalgic homemade taste! We've tried their Chocolate Chip cookies and they are delicious too... Highly recommended!

The Independent, UK based news publisher, just dropped a great interview of one of Aloha Rag's favorite designers, Phillip Lim. Below is a quote by the designer himself, and we couldn't agree more about his extraordinary aesthetic...
"The clothes are definitely a result of my personality. It’s an eccentric soul but at the same time it’s subtle and shy. It’s always about pushing this youthful elegance, which is a contradiction in itself, and I guess that’s why it’s difficult to explain. Because everything is a contradiction."
