[@bossjewls]

HelloKaty super cute!!! But looks really small to be 650 sq ft?! But I do love it and it’s decorated very nicely!! 💓💓💓

[@alyssap1881]

@@bossjewls studio apartments are usually small and one room. Hers was actually a decent size compared to the norm in america.

[@cloudsmari]

Julie Huynh thought so too it looks really small

[@dbaparadoxicality8414]

Love the way the light shines thru. Also you have pleasing flooring and decor. Great vid

[@dbaparadoxicality8414]

Shop with me...thankyou

[@zoeskye1083]

$2800 to have a bed next to your couch. NY is so expensive

[@annaackerman5767]

yeah for realll lol but like u have to consider the price is for where u are and not necessarily what kinda place u live in

[@napperforlife2020]

Expensive for many reasons, prime location, everything is accessible

[@Maria-xd4uk]

right! and i thought my 900 sq feet place was small....

[@Nicolelynnn]

she literally said she's paying for the location as it's a highly wanted location in greenwich

[@SP-du4re]

That’s a pretty decent price for the location and how “ big” it is (for something in NYC) Look at best dressed latest videos on apartment hunting

[@vpettus]

That's not Billie Holiday, she was a vocalist and didn't play trumpet. Billie died in 1959. The photo you have framed and hanging on your wall taken in 1963 is of Lorraine Glover, wife of famous hardbop trumpet player Donald Byrd. Photo was shot by photographer William Claxton. .

[@Darkempress45]

vpettus damn 😅. Right on sista (or brotha), you know your stuff!

[@EricaPapillionPosey]

😘😘😘😘😘😘Thank you!

[@kma837]

vpettus Thanks for the correction on the “Billie” photo

[@krisuler7734]

Bravo! They also look...nothing alike lol! Why do hipsters insist on hanging up images of people..places...bands...etc...of which they know nothing about? Just to establish some kind of image of themselves? Why not get into Billie and her music and THEN rep her by putting up images of her on your wall. Like that Tom Ford book...it is in EVERY KZbinr’s apartment tour and the majority have no clue who he is, they’re not interested in fashion...they get it because everybody has it and it’s “bougggggieeeeee” 😂😩😂😩😂😩😂😩i caaaaant. Folks like you....👌🏻👌🏻🙌🏻 thank you! antover.

[@cmykimberly]

@@krisuler7734 Yeah it was pretty cringe... Went on etsy and searched for vintage black and white photos? Why not hang up photos about things/people you care about and have an interest in rather than just try to make your place look like a pintrest pic

[@cookiesarelikecream]

You should collab with bestdressed she just moved to nyc

[@annaknight6177]

I second this motion

[@claudettebertrand3791]

Me too

[@rainef1466]

Literally only watched this because I wanna get more insight on nyc and Ashley mentioned Greenwich 😂😂

[@erin8133]

Yes please!!

[@Deathcabforcherry]

Yes!

[@jeninesealy2426]

I hope this doesn’t sound weird, but I feel like your apartment smells really good, like vanilla bean or something😅

[@Abigail.Lynn.jones122]

That's hella weird but you're probably right. 😎😎😎

[@PerfumeCognac]

Jenine Sealy I know this comment is older but I felt the need to tell you that theres an Instagram account where someone posts pictures of different rooms and they post a caption describing what the room would smell like 😂😂 so not all that weird if someone somewhere thought to think of the same thing lol

[@hola542]

It probably smells of the very overripe bananas she has in the kitchen

[@cwales688]

I see it smelling of roses and gardenia.

[@KathrynMasrona]

PerfumeCognac omfg that’s hilarious do you still remember the name of the acc 😂

[@namaswi4252]

i feel like i already know exactly what ur apartment looks like from ur insta stories but ofc i'm still gonna watch

[@HelloKatyxo]

Hahaha yes IG fam knows it well!! XO

[@livyliv7915]

Love this place!! Important recommendation though - DO NOT keep vinyl records in direct sunlight like that! They can actually warp and melt. All the best :)

[@ohminerva6]

LivyLiv I was looking for this comment!!! Cute apt💕

[@plaintivel.7142]

i was gonna say the same!!!! should definitely put the fake plant by the window and the vinyl and player in front of the plant :)

[@goofygoober67]

She’s a poser. She outed herself with this and also the fake Billie Holiday portrait. And I doubt she’s even reading the books under her mirror as claimed.

[@BlanceDevereaux]

@@goofygoober67 And no way is she playing those records. Nobody who plays vinyls would have them up on a window sill in the sunlight.

[@Cccoast]

She doesn’t play them..... lmao

[@LoiLaing]

Loved the apt! Thanks for sharing. (The photo isn't Billie Holiday...it's Lorraine Glover whose husband was a trumpet player.)

[@ontheloose1151]

I feel like I see your place all the time on insta but watching this you can really tell how beautifully curated your decor and everything is! Loved this!!

[@tash8491]

Looks like an artist’s apartment in Manhattan (in the best possible way 😍 like it’s out of a movie)

[@HelloKatyxo]

Huge compliment OMG!

[@violetgreenberg]

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

[@violetgreenberg]

you clearly know no artists in nyc

[@ViktoriaLove93]

@@violetgreenberg Agreed, lol.

[@krisuler7734]

Violet Greenberg exactly lol! I chuckled so hard at this sheltered comment. She also has no clue who Billie Holiday is...or at least what she looks like .

[@LivingInElysium]

Me: You should make banana bread with those bananas. Katy: I really only use the stovetop.

[@HelloKatyxo]

HAHAHA I ended up eating them :)

[@allie3917]

You did an amazing job at making essentially one room convey your personality perfectly while still being livable and functional. It's like someone went inside your brain this is what it would look like and that is honestly amazing.

[@artland3896]

Omg , I’m a New Yorker born and raised and there’s no way that I would pay all that money for that small space , not even a private room , oh hell no !

[@ayziahcarbajal8679]

ikr, I cannot imagine having to sleep in the living space. It just feels so invasive...

[@mariageorgie]

I really really love what you did with the space!! It's so cozy and I love how you naturally created divisions with your open concept floor plan

[@hotpriestess]

katy, your home is beautiful! it's exactly the picture i imagine living in new york. love love love the design and everything!

[@gigilarsen]

Such a beautiful space 💕 it has so much of YOU in it, that’s what makes it so unique and lovely

[@HelloKatyxo]

Aw I love this comment. Thank you!

[@mael2039]

I adore this apartment!!?! so beautiful and cozy and homey and warm!! I absolutely love it! Everything, the colours, the vintage pieces, the decorations, the wood tones wow just so lovely and beautiful!! and I love how real it looks and how much beautiful stuff you have, I love this much more than a too minimal style even tho I can appreciate that, too.. just so incredibly beautiful and cozy!

[@gabrielleblayden6426]

your apartment is full of beautiful things that you love and it reflects you so well, that’s definitely the opposite of a hoarder!!

[@thatgirlhannah97]

Going back and rewatching your vids and it's making me feel nostalgic. Remembering where I was in my life 3 years ago and where I am now lol. I love how you've grown and come so far since this particular video 💖🙏🏻

[@lazyhaus4321]

You could maybe separate the "bedroom" with a glass wall panel with framing. You would get the visual separation but still get the light in and not make the space feel small. 😊🌿

[@andreiafaria1584]

i thouth about that the entire video hahahhaha

[@HighestRankedStager]

That's spot on. And that's what I did in my new apartment transformation and tour video. Doesn't look cavey anymore: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZuskKh-i8qIhZY

[@KyleighJanee9]

I love your style! It's just eclectic enough, but not overbearing with clutter. Ty for the inspiration!

[@xokelseyxo9238]

Katy, your studio apartment is absolutely adorable!! I love your decorating style.

[@KiaraMadisen]

Absolutly obsessed with this Katy! So much inspiration for my studio I'm hunting for 😊 Love your couch area a ton 😍

[@jocias7497]

As a fellow Maryland girl the old bay magnets made my day 😂 but the entire apartment is soooo perfect and cute !

[@shelleyharris9631]

Your apartment is absolutely beautiful, tons of character, and super cozy looking,thanks for sharing.

[@Erika-rl1gv]

I like the books propping up the iMac. I think it adds character. I love your unique space and style.

[@DYAHPRTW]

i always love ur apartment and the way u designed it! so much inspiration katy, thank u for making this apt tour!

[@Gyttana]

Thanks for sharing your space. It’s beautiful and I love the Cary Grant touch!

[@ranaalyahya6781]

you apartment is what i can call HOME ! it's so beautiful and warm.. nothing like other youtubers have! i have seen beautiful apartments and so organized but it doesn't feel like home like yours .. thank you for sharing it with us .

[@abhaya_ananth]

Omg yess!!! You took the words right out of my mouth. I've seen so many apartments like what you've mentioned...the ultra modern apartment feels cold and uninviting. The bougie, extra look feels excessive....Maybe it's the color scheme or idk what, but something about this feels so homey and cozy 💕

[@MissGeorgiaPeaches56]

yessss i’ve been waiting for this!!! your interior design style is my ultimate inspiration

[@solsticequeen]

Just water your plants in the window 1 time each month and they will survive. They are easy care plants, so over watering those are a no no. Let the soil dry out completely and when it's time to water, take them to the sink and give them a really good soak. Fertilize 2 or 3 times a year. Oh, and tell them they are loved and beautiful. I know it sounds silly, but it works. 😊

[@juliekostas7322]

Great space--super creative and livable! Enjoy every minute of this wonderful experience--- my nyc studio apartment days were the best days ever! Savor every bite of it!

[@MsAmelia65]

Your apartment is so beautiful. You have so many wonderful little touches that really make it elegant.

[@martiwest2594]

Yahoo! The furniture finally came! You must be so proud.

[@kiwipalace]

genuine question: i keep seeing these studio apartments where the kitchen is literally in the same space as the bed, like how do you not get cooking grease everywhere esp when you dont have a cooking hood? even when i have a cooking hood in a well ventilated space, grease just goes everywhere .

[@omfgnotdeadyet384]

tbh it's not a problem for me. maybe because I use less oil? a little splatter on the counter/the backdrop here and there but that's it

[@deepsoul69cb]

In NYC 95% of people never use a stove, nobody cooks here.

[@suesheification]

Who cooks anymore?

[@tlahmed]

Sahara L I live in a 470 sq. ft. studio in Seattle, and it’s never an issue for me! To be fair I don’t use a lot of oil, and if I do and hear it starting to pop, I’ll put a cover over my pan (the ones will little holes for ventilation).

[@viepng]

That's what a studio apartment is. There is no separate bedroom. But, the bed is usually on the opposite side from the kitchen

[@paperplains7285]

I LOVE it. This is actually the biggest studio I've seen in NY.

[@1202906]

wow you really lucked out for NYC, it's a beautiful space. The layout is lovely and the light is so pretty. It also helps that you styled it realllly well

[@yozabeth16]

I love that your space really reflects your personality & interests!

[@ADLap]

Love your little vintage pieces, especially the prints! Like the way use your space.

[@cathykristensen4440]

Such a warm cozy vibe.

[@wordsnletters]

I lovee that it's a curated kind of mess vibe! It's not easy to pull off actually but for someone that prefers a minimal look, im loving this!! :)

the color of your room the outside light... issa mood

Haha love it. The photo with all the girls, I had a birthday card from my girls at work and they’ve gone and written their names on each girl. Love it so cute.

What an idea apartment set up with all the light and the flow and the doorman 😱

Love your apartment and your use of the space, thank you for taking us on a tour!

This is EVERYTHING! Makes me want to move to NYC even more

[@anthea73]

Hi, what a lovely space. Just wanted to say that the Hemnes shoe storage from IKEA might be a perfect solution for your hair tools outside your bathroom :). It is narrow and has amble pull out storage drawers! Have a lovely day ☺️

[@miracleinsider]

This is so beautiful! I was super surprised to see you didn’t have any rugs but the space still looks so warm and inviting. As for your window plants, they may be getting too much sun. It’s been abnormally warm and sunny here in NY and the drastic temp shift could be affecting your plants - plus the space heater.

[@artisticbuilding6852]

Your place is so beautiful. It's diverse and personal yet everything goes together. I personally could never have my bed just part of the living room, like I need at least a divider in the form of an arch. But I love everything else.

[@lucyeatsalot]

Hi Katy! You could put white electric tape over the crack in your shelving to give the illusion its undamaged!

[@HighestRankedStager]

I kept looking at the unit by your couch - I love that the furnace doesn't stick out like a sore thumb.

[@ThisIsntAtheena]

oh my goodness the last time i watched you was literally 6-7 years ago, youtube recommended this video and i thought your channel name looked familiar! also, your apartment looks so beautiful and cozy, the overall colour palette is so lovely

I love how you decorated your space!

[@PlainWhiteVanity]

your home is stunning Katy! Loved this video!

[@2beolivia]

Love your studio apartment, its so cute, cozy and boho chic😍

[@chloehasson]

For a new desk, you should look into getting two side tables/nightstands to use as the legs and get an old wooden countertop from a flea market or something to rest on the side tables. Then you'd have plenty of drawer space and depending on where you look for the top, you could get it long enough and deeper!

[@sharonnnnnnnn]

I love your apartment, love how you've decorated it!

[@cordeliacriseyde880]

Love the sectional next to the bed. I wanted to do the same in my bachelor but I wasn't sure if it would look good. Now I know it will thanks to this video😍

This is a really nice studio apartment & I like how you kept it real, with your make up, lotion stuff all over the sink. That’s usually how it is in real life.

[@dabombdiggity46]

So beautiful!! I love your style and the vintage theme throughout the whole space! I realize you def do this for textra seating and to watch tv from bed lol but have you ever considered creating separate bedroom and living room areas by possibly turning your couch to face the window and like switching the bookshelf and your tv? I think it'd be interesting!
