Harley's Haunts

Recent graduate of New York University, girl on the scene, in demand model, and must-have DJ, Harley Viera Newton is taking over - for not only her modeling skills but her personality as well. She’s the unassuming girl next door who’s tapped into the scene and just a bit cooler than you, but in the nicest of ways. Harley shared a few of her favorite NYC haunts, so you too can channel her cool factor.

For an afternoon of culture, head to the American Museum of Natural History, followed by a shopping excursion to Tom Binns for accessories and a few hours of thrifting at The Garage at Hell’s Kitchen Flea Market. As for dining, Harley suggests the Mermaid Oyster Bar for their happy hour deal of $1 oysters, but for sushi, you must try Tomoe. Always on top of the newest locations, Harley’s already tested out the newest burger joint on the scene: Whitmans, and gives her approval. But most importantly, in an effort to bring your iPod up to speed, the model DJ suggested 15 songs you’ll immediately want to download.
