 Hi, baddies. Welcome back to my channel. My name is Nika. I am the creator of High Black Girl, which is basically just my blog about all things beauty and skincare and personal finance and apartment and just everything that I love in this world. If you guys are interested in like living your best life on a budget, make sure you follow me below and click that subscribe button for more videos. But this video today because everyone really, really, really loves the apartment content and my like original apartment tour, I decided to give you guys an update. So follow me if you guys want more apartment stuff. I'll probably do like an entire series of me just like putting my apartment together because it's definitely a slow and steady process because I do not want to go into that over an apartment. I don't think anyone should. I definitely made that mistake in my first couple of apartments like moving in right away, charging everything in my credit card just to get it furnished and then like what do I have to show for it? Like all that furniture that I bought from that first apartment is not even in this apartment. So slow and steady wins the race. I'm currently saving for a couch for this apartment. This one is temporary and I got it off the Facebook marketplace for like $500. So currently saving for a couch. I think I have like $800 saved and the couch I want is 2000. So nearly halfway there. But for today's video, I was able to purchase some bar stools for the island that I purchased and that you guys saw in my last apartment tour. I was able to buy a lamp, a lamp shade, a TV stand and then like actual legs for my TV because I got my TV from my little brother and it was mounted on his wall. But I didn't want to mount to that my wall because as I said, I want to get a new couch that I actually want to go behind the camera like where the TV is and then I want the TV to go over here. So I just needed to get some legs on it. So it wasn't on the ground and eventually once I get that couch, I'll probably mountain on this wall behind me. But with all that being said, I do have a rent stabilized apartment in New York City in a luxury building. It's honestly I'm living a dream. So if you want to learn more about like how to get a rent stabilized apartment in New York City, make sure you subscribe to my channel because I will be doing an entire series just sharing my story and like my process getting and like securing this apartment. Is there anything else I wanted to mention? I don't think so. So with all that being said, let's just get right into the apartment tour or I guess updated apartment tour. Make sure you subscribe to my channel below and I think that's it. Okay, so this is what my new TV setup is looking now. I'll show you guys what it looked like before so you can kind of get a better idea of the progress that I've made. But as you can see, like I have this cute little lamp situation going on the lamp. It's actually from Ikea. Well the lamp itself is actually from Wayfair and the lamp shade is from Ikea. But I think it's so cute. It has like this little texture on it. I'm obsessed and the lamp it hangs. I want to say it's like 87 inches or something. It's like five feet, I believe. So I really love that. Also really love my cat. How cute does he look? Oh my god. He's so cute. Okay, distractions. We're letting that go. So here you can see I have my TV. I got like these little legs for it because it quite literally was on the ground. And then I also got these cute little plants from Ikea. I did not get the plants from Ikea. Where did I get the plants from? Oh, Trader Joe's. I got the plants from Trader Joe's. But this big banana plant is actually from Ikea. And then I got like this little like TV council thing, which I am obsessed with. I still need to take the stickers off. You can kind of see like there's some stickers there. I still need to take those off because I literally just put it all together. But look at how great it looks. I absolutely love it. Okay, so my camera just turned off. Don't know why I did that. Don't know what was the last thing I said. So going to freak out about this again. Look, I think it's so cool. So I'm really excited about that. And I don't know what I'm going to put in here. Probably like stuff like this Apple TV and then maybe some books and stuff. Right now Jacques, my cat loves just like crawling in it and like just doing like all types of nonsense. But yeah, this is basically my updated living room. I'm super, super, super excited about it. Remember to subscribe if you guys want more apartment content. I will be doing a whole series soon. Oh, and the one thing I wanted to show you were these bar stools. Also, I'll be adding the price of everything, how much I paid and where it's from in the description down below. If not, I'll probably overlay it on the video. And if you want to see the before of my apartment with the furniture that I basically just moved in with, hi kitty. Now I have cat hair on my lip. Oh God. If you want to see like the before, make sure you watch my first apartment tour video. The quality is I will admit, but I'm getting better at making these videos day by day. So I hope you guys subscribed from our content. And without further ado, let me just show you guys the bar stools that I got. Okay, you can kind of see me. I got these bar stools. Oh gosh. They're so cool. I'm like, can I lift them up? Yeah, they're kind of light. So I got these bar stools from Wayfair. I ended paying like $8 for them because I used to gift card that I got from my job for like $250. So basically I just paid the difference of like basically just tax and shipping because the bar stools were $250. Tax and shipping was like $8. So I paid $8 for them, but I'm literally obsessed and they're really easy to put together. I basically just put them together myself. So this is what the bar stools look like. And honestly, I think that's about it for the apartment tour. If you want to see my full apartment, go ahead and watch my like original apartment tour video if I had to catch my breath. For the full apartment, go ahead and watch my apartment tour video. If you want more apartment content, make sure you subscribe. I'm in the process of really like kind of overhauling everything. Oh, and I forgot to mention I plan on putting these plants into these little things and then hanging them on the wall once I kind of get my new couch and I kind of like flip my entire living room around. I also kind of want to like either wallpaper or paint like this little nook here too. So a lot more home improvement and like apartment content coming. Thank you guys so much for watching.
