Here's where your favorite Instagram models eat in NYC
Whether they're in town for Fashion Week or taking yet another vacation, Instagram models visit NYC all the time. Not only do they keep their *aesthetics* on point, but they know how to eat in style. From brunching to indulging in a sweet treat, let these ladies be your dining #inspiration.
1. Chiara Ferragni
Let's be honest. Chiara serves as the undisputed queen of Instagram. She started her blog, The Blonde Salad, way back in 2009, essentially establishing the era of the social media model. When she's not taking over European fashion events, she is a frequent visitor to NYC. You can usually find her eating at Gemma at the Bowery Hotel, a chic Italian restaurant in the East Village. Staying true to my (and Chiara's) Milanese roots, I recommend the Penne Arrabiata. But if you're not in the mood for pasta, the Gemma Brunch Bowl is a favorite for any weekend outing.
2. Carin Olsson
Carin, creator of Paris in Four Months, is probably one of the most aesthetic bloggers on Instagram. She lives a charmed Parisian life, using her photography skills to score the best seats at Fashion Week. An actual spokeswoman for Laudree, Carin definitely has a sweet tooth. Find her at Morgenstern's Finest Ice Cream in the East Village or brunching on French toast at the Four Seasons Hotel.
3. Emily Luciano
Emily lives in NYC, so you can be sure that she knows the go-to restaurants around town. With her playful and light aesthetic, she finds some of the prettiest (and pinkest) places for the perfect photo-op, even matching her outfit to the eateries. Catch her at Pietro Nolita and even a Sprinkles Cupcake ATM.
4. Bridget Bahl
Curator of And I Was Like, Bridget is no stranger to world travel. During her many visits to NYC, she is satisfying her inner tourist with Central Park Carriage rides and photoshoots in Times Square. To keep her energy up during these trips, she can be found sipping iced coffee from your favorite spots, like Jack's Stir Brew and While We Were Young. Even the most popular Instagram models need their caffeine fix.
5. Helen Owen
Helen is probably one of my favorite Instagram models, at the moment. This bikini-clad, Los Angeles native is all about fitness and adventures on the beach, but that doesn't take away from her trips to NYC. With her photographer boyfriend in tow, she can be found drinking lattes at The Dream Downtown hotel and enjoying a bite of French cuisine at Buvette.
They're just like us—kind of.
While most of our lifestyles are not as glamours as these Instagram queens, we can take solace in knowing that they love to eat just like us. If you live in NYC or are taking a trip her, visit one of these eateries for a good meal and the perfect Instagram post.
