  • Step inside my vintage-inspired NYC studio apartment! This is an up-close look at my 250 square foot studio apt that I pay $1500 a month for. By NYC standards my studio is pretty big and a good deal. What do u think? • • • ⇩ • • • OPEN FOR MORE • • • ⇩ • • •

    This video has been in the making for a while now but it's finally finished! I hope you all enjoy this tour of my tiny but cute studio apartment. I always love watching YT videos of people's apartments in big cities where they show you what you can get for your money. But I feel like some of them aren't totally honest. So I'm showing what you can HONESTLY get for $1500 a month living in NYC. Do you think I'm paying too much, or am I getting a good deal?? I'd love to know what you think of my decor and studio size in NYC.

      Very popular over here in my corner of Europe. In mid 2000s it was popular to make everything light brown. Now it's all white, super minimalistic and sterile. I need an accent color and darker tones. That's why I rented a pretty looking, well balanced and nicely designed apartment. It's a rarity.

    I know you realize how lucky you are to have this apartment. Not only is it a large "studio", but to have the defined kitchen and the dressing room to make it seem like you are moving into actual different rooms. To get a sofa and a full size bed and still have room to walk around is pretty amazing. I love the vintage feel of the bathroom - the old tub and the curved surround of the shower is great - even with the "updated" tile. Wish they had stayed with something vintage, there, as well. $1500 seems like a lot until you see other options in other areas - and you are close to work and transportation! Really nice.

    • @brooklynbloom

    It's fairly roomy for a studio, and you've made good use of each space. An apartment like this in Manhattan, if you could find one, would be $1,000 more. I don't understand people who insist on being in Manhattan when there are places like this just two or three subway stops away for substantially less money. I'd say you made some good choices.

    You call it an apartment complex, back when I lived in Brooklyn it was called a three-family home. I lived in a two-family home for 18 years; we had the top floor. It was a cold flat (meaning no central heating). We heated our place by using the stove that had an attached heating unit. Our rent was only $60/month. The landlord raised it to $85 after he installed central heating that was mandated by NYC. I loved that place.

Yours is full of charm and character, and having a separate kitchen is wonderful! Your decorating is impeccable. You should think about doing that professionally! Everything you put together produced a very inviting and cozy place to live.

    Nice place. NYC has cheaper rentals now, in Manhattan, for $1k and $1.3k. Many people have moved back to suburbs and out-of-state and they need people to rent those spots. I could not believe seeing a decent size studio in Manhattan for $1,300. No bathtub though, but everything looked new.

    I love how you decorated your apartment. Even though it's been two years since you uploaded this video, rents in the suburbs were pretty comparable or higher. If you want to live in the Big Apple, you have to sacrifice space. If you want to live in the suburbs, you're going to pay about as much or more plus you will probably need a car. You made the most of your place and you did a fabulous job. I live in a house and I go to the dump's Take it or Leave It shop for plastic storage units for the basement and garage and to Goodwill for bargains.

      aww this makes me so happy! i remember moving into my own place for the first time, it can def feel a little overwhelming trying to decorate the whole place. Just take it one room, even one wall at a time. No need to get it done all at once. Especially when you incorporate more vintage items, those can take a little longer to find but are def worth it once you do.

In Texas, I paid $525 a month for a studio with a huge walk in closet, bathroom and kitchen sectioned off. It wasn’t the nicest place but now I’m in a 2 bed, 2 bath with washer and dryer included for $860 a month. Crazy the world of differences that region brings

    This apt is gorgeous! And I think you're getting a lot of bang for your buck. Wonderful design & an at-home feel that is in no way cluttered. I love the attitude of getting rid of something when getting something new, cuz "I've enjoyed this, maybe someone else will enjoy it too." Common generosity amongst millennials that I think gets overlooked by the generation with the philosophy of "he who dies with the most toys, wins!"

    That’s an amazing price to live in New York! I think a lot of people forget that you’re not just paying for the living space you’re also paying for the location, for example in Kentucky (where I live) we don’t have a big demand for our location so houses are cheaper. So with $1500 a month in Kentucky can get you a two story, 4 bed maybe 5 bed, 2 bath, and decent sized kitchen and living room, but in places like New York, Florida, and California you’d be paying so much more for that size of house.

    There is nothing nicer than collecting objects and furniture that has had another life! I have collected this way since I was young in the eighties. Vintage to me is anything from the 60s back ( back then they called it ‘second hand’ and was frowned upon). I find it strange that my daughter is wearing my clothes from the eighties and calls them vintage. It seems like yesterday to me😂😂 and little does she know is a lot of those clothes are older than that and I’m so glad she wants them. You have a beautiful home. I wish you health and happiness to enjoy it. I like nothing better than championing the young to be independent in living and mind. ❤️ Thank you for sharing because this pandemic has isolated a lot of us and it’s a way to visit others homes if only through the lens. ❤️
