when in new york...

favorite line from the week there, "so if you guys are packin any heat-like machetes, mase, lighters, guns, knives etc, just do as new yorkers do and check your weapons" lol the NBC tour lady telling our group before going through security ha!

anyways, the trip was amazing, the drive was easy and the hotel was clean and great location. we were so close to bryant park which i thought was pretty cool (hello new york fashion week?!) we got in around 4pm, checked into the hote, freshened up and headed for macys and a quick walk through times square.

the next day, we took a walk through central park (which my mom loved!), went to bergdorfs to look for the marc purse i wanted and possible dresses to wear for the wedding im going to in november-big negative on both points. then we went to the mall at columbus circle and went into bebe-typically not a hue fan of this store, but wow, the amount of dresses was insane! i feel like the style is completely different there now. i tried on about 10 dresses-and although i didnt want black, thats what i ended up getting-it had everything i wanted in a dress-short with tulle underneath, kind of funky and not just plain..it was a win win-and im gonna dress it up with bright blue peep toe pumps! there was another dress that came in a close second, but i guess it was more of a party dress, rather than to wear to a wedding..anyways, youll see me in the dress in november ;) we also got a snack at dean and deluca in the mall and i got the BEST red velvet cupcake ive ever had (besides the cake i made of course ha)....then we headed to greenwich village area in order to go the marc by marc jacobs store to find my purse--i found it and my trip was a complete success!! i was pretty happy to say the least...i also got skinny jeans from the store and they fit like a glove, which NEVER happens for me and jeans...

we then had some dinner and headed from w11 down to the water and sat on a bench for a bit just looking out at the water. a nice way to end a busy day.it was back to hotel to change, then we went back to bryant park to just sit and chill, after taking pics in front of the library of course ;)
the next day was filled with seeing rockefeller centre, getting my shoes to match my dress, going on an NBC tour (kinda boring), eating lunch at the bryant park cafe (yummy!), seeing the mary poppins play-very good! we shared those plates-not both for me!

the picture doesnt do the dress justice-it looks much better on!
oh, and driving through this for almost 6 hours aint so bad! its quite a pretty drive...
until next time NYC....maybe in the winter...
