Serena turned one!! I can’t believe I’m writing this my friends…It was such an amazing ride, the best and the hardest year of my life for sure! Celebrating her life was so important to me and I really wanted to make something cute, she only turns 1 once so I thought about a theme, the […]
You know I am always exploring different vegan spots in the city and sharing my favorite ones on instagram but since information disappears on social media, I decided to write a blog post so all my favorite places can live here forever! I can probably make a TOP 30 Vegan restaurants in NYC and this […]
One of the questions I get asked the most is “which vegan beauty brand do you recommend?”. So I decided to put together some of my favorite ones and some I recently discovered and am testing right now…and so far so good. To see more of my day to day life in NYC, check out […]
You guys know I’m obsessed with bags – well, vegan leather bags to be more specific- and for years I’ve been sharing my love for MMS Brands, a website where you can shop many brands in once place, making the process of buying vegan bags easier – you can filter by brand, color and style […]
Letting vegetables be just what they are: vegetables. And you will see, they will blow your mind! Our diner at Avant Garden was simply perfect. We sat at the bar and didn’t miss the action and art behind each dish being prepared and served. From the rich Romesco toast ($14) with more ingredients that I […]
I don’t even know where to begin! This week I had a dinner reservation at Ladybird, a vegetable bar in the Lower East Side, one of the coolest areas of NY – in my opinion. As a “vegetable bar”, Ladybird offers a variety of plant based dishes that will blow your mind, I wasn’t expecting […]
You guys know I’m always on the go. Or trying to squeeze time to prepare a quick meal between a pile of e-mails to answer or an apartment screaming for my attention. Anyway, anything that saves me time has been life changing lately! So I wanted to share this great products with you that is […]
It all happened during my last trip to Iceland. Everywhere I looked… there was the Fjall Raven fox logo. Outdoors and windy places. Downtown Reykjavik. Bars and restaurants. Airport… Coming back to NYC, it was just a matter of a few walks on the streets to see that they were also everywhere HERE! Times Square, […]
“We believe in the soulful power of thoughtful hands: hand-picked roses, hand-poured candles, hand-formulated perfumes and handshake agreements” . You guys know I’m obsessed with perfumes, right? And recently I received a box of Le Labo fine fragrances with 15 scents in their famous “discovery set”, to choose my favorite one. Of course it was impossible, they all smell […]
If you follow me on instagram you know that most of the time when I’m out and about I tend to eat only at vegan places (click here and here to check some of my favorites ones in the city!). But some times in life I needed to find a good place that serves “regular” food (for my non-vegan friends and […]
Time for some girly stuff today on the blog! As you girls know I’m obsessed with bags, of any design, shape and colorl! And that didn’t change at all when I went vegan, in fact I never really owned a real leather bag prior to that, there was always something that didn’t resonate with me when it came […]
The list keeps getting longer and longer! As an enthusiastic vegan, I love sharing my favorite spots in the city and if these made the list, they have my seal of approval (not sure yet if this means anything lol). Please let me know what your favorite places are on my instagram @marthasachser and @blognyandabout! Can’t wait to try […]
I recently came back from California and this time I brought with me some of my new bags from MMS Design Studio, a company that makes the most amazing bags using only vegan leather (and yet very affordable!). That’s how they won my heart! For this trip I wanted something small enough to walk around but still […]
February went by so quickly but I took the time to register one of the happiest days of the month: the day when my Vegan Cuts box arrives! Seriously, what a treat it is to get home and open a box filled with everything vegan, from snacks to beauty products! So of course I wanted to […]
2016 was a big year for me… Moving out, getting married, visiting all the 50 states, writing a book, turning 30 and becoming almost 100% vegan! Yes!! This was so special! I had to learn how to shop for products in a new way, read ingredients list and It was fun! Learning about beauty products for the new […]
I spent most of my life using the wrong products on my face or not thinking too much about it. Now that I’m 30 and the first signs of age are starting to appear, I decided to take action and finally do something to improve the health of my skin. And as a new vegan […]
