Hi guys, it's Lucie!
Welcome back to my YouTube channel.
Agh, I have a hair in my mouth.
Welcome back to my YouTube channel.
Thank you for being here.
Today's video has come highly requested.
And I am sorry I have not made this video sooner, but I was really waiting until I cleaned
up first.
In pretty much every video I make I am sitting right in front of the camera and you can see
my living room behind me or my bedroom behind me.
But, a lot of you have been requesting to go on a walking tour of the apartment space.
As many of you might know, I moved out of living with my twin sister and our friend
from college last summer.
So I have lived with my boyfriend for about one year now.
This is our place; we have a one bedroom apartment in Manhattan.
Honestly we do have a lot of space here but I have so many things that I keep bringing
into the apartment; my lights and my tripods and all the camera equipment.
And it's really clogging the place up.
So, I did a bit of a clean-up so that you can see the apartment at its prime.
But know that it gets extremely messy all the time and we do not live like this!
Alright.
Time to go on tour!
I am starting in the hallway outside of my door.
One really fun thing about this apartment is that we have a doorbell.
Coming!
That's fun!
So, once we are inside and the door is behind us, the first thing we have on the right is
the closet.
This is a spare closet we use for all of our jackets, umbrellas…Lots of stuff goes in
here!
This is one of my favorite things in the apartment.
It's a nice metal mirror and it has this gold situation on the bottom where you can
store stuff, and there are hooks on the bottom in case you want to hang up your keys.
This is a very good thing next to the door because we come in, we throw our stuff down,
and we go.
Hey!
I think I'm gonna have to do another video that's just going through my bathroom and
showing you all the beauty products I have and the makeup I use because it's just too
much to include in this video.
But I will show you a few things!
This right here is the charcoal face sponge that I have been using recently to wash my
face.
Each of these mirrors is actually its own cabinet so there's lots of storage back
there.
This is where I keep my makeup.
And this is the shower right here.
It's a bathtub and a shower.
We keep this mat on the floor but it gets very wet!
Leaving the bathroom, I turn the lights off!
Coming this way in the hallway I have some very special paintings.
These are paintings that my mom painted for us.
She loves to pain abstract art with this sort of color scheme: blues and purples and whites.
And she actually told me, which one was it?
She told me that this was supposed to be a forest.
So, she said these were the trees, this was a waterfall, this is maybe more water over
here, and this right here is the sun!
One thing we are really lucky about in this apartment is this extra closet that we have
that kind of dips in like the corner right there.
And split it nice and evenly: Lucie's stuff, Michael's stuff.
So, this is the kitchen space and I love it because it's incredibly open to the rest
of the apartment.
This is the refrigerator where we have some emoji magnets and some pictures of the two
of us.
This is prom, in high school!
I think "what's in my fridge" is also another future video topic, so I'm not gonna open
that right now.
And on top of the fridge we store some Swell water bottles.
Just trying to save the environment!
This cabinet is one of my favorite cabinets in the apartment.
I decorated it like that during "5 Days of Adulting" and we pretty much have left it
intact since then.
The kitchen utensils…
We've got our coffee machine, some spatulas.
Over here we have a little toaster, my blender for the smoothies, a little French press,
and the best thing about this kitchen is...the dishwasher!
And then there's this little island over here and some more cabinetry!
Now we move on to this living room space.
This is my favorite structure in the apartment and we bought it at IKEA!
And it's super easy, you just push and the doors open.
So, we've got our wine glasses and mugs, cups, bowl, plates, more cups.
This is a really handy piece of wood.
And then there are eight drawers underneath it where we store other kitchen items.
I actually use this drawer for my video items; this has like a tripod and a microphone in
it.
Then we're over to the kitchen table.
Another IKEA purchase.
Very simple, white, sleek.
And, oh my gosh, if you liked this piece you are going to love the television piece!
This!
We love it because it's perfect for a big television and it has all of these book shelves.
And something you need to know about Michael is that he is an absolute book freak and he
hoards books!
I'm not gonna complain.
Honestly, it's kind of cool to have books at my disposal; whenever I finish reading
a book I always have a new book right here in the living room.
We also keep a lot of the playbills for a lot of the plays that we see here.
So, we've got some Hamilton playbills, Dear Evan Hansen, more Hamilton, The Humans.
Then we've got some pictures of us up here along with our Derek Jeter pictures for Michael.
This is a fun gift I got for Michael one year for our anniversary.
I thought that we would put pins in all of the places that we had been on our own or
all the places that we wanted to go together.
And then Michael bought all of these photo albums and then printed almost every single
photo in the world of the two of us from our life together, and we are going to put those
in there!
We got these things just to kind of decorate the window ledge.
This is the world's comfiest couch.
And we also have these beautiful new paintings to go above the couch that my mom painted
for us.
Thanks, Mom!
This is a calendar that my family made for me for 2017 with some of the best shots!
Just to orient you quickly in case you are a little bit lost.
Are you understanding the layout?
I hope so.
This is the main space, but we still have the bedroom.
We have a king-sized bed which is really nice.
This is a view you might have seen a couple of times in Try Living with Lucie.
Behind the bed, I have these two soft boxes that I use for my stop-motion videos and I
don't break them down because they take too long to set up.
So, Michael has been the most understanding boyfriend in the entire world and lets me
keep my lights built in our bedroom.
We have these two night tables from IKEA with matching lamps on them.
And this is another structure that I bought from IKEA.
It's basically just a spare closet that stands on its own and it's drilled into the
wall behind it so it doesn't tip forward.
But this is the biggest life-saver in terms of space.
Look at how much stuff I have managed to shove in there!
And then this closet against the wall here was built in when we got here, but Michael
and I did a pretty good job of splitting it 50/50.
So, this side is all Michael's stuff as you can tell from the color scheme and the
clothes.
And this side is all Lucie's stuff!
If anyone has a really good idea of how I can store these shoes please, comment below.
And for those of you who watch my Refinery videos, you'll know that this is the spot
where I sit to shoot my webcams!
And, that's it!
The tour is over.
That is the tour.
Wait, one last thing.
I have these two beautiful paintings that my cameraman Andrew made for me: Try Living
with Lucie and...ducks.
I really feel like I need to make a follow-up video to show you what's in my bathroom,
and what's in my fridge, and what's in my snack cabinet.
Those will come later.
I have a lot more videos up my sleeve.
In the meantime, comment below and let me know if you have any more ideas and what you
want to see me do on this channel.
The world is your oyster and I am here for you!
