On this lovely hot Saturday, we took a stroll to Central Park for a picnic and got some sandwiches from Bouchon Bakery. I got the tuna sandwich which was excellent and the pastries and desserts are delicious. It can get pretty busy especially during lunch time, but it's worth the wait. Anyway, it made a perfect meal for a picnic in the park and a way to spend the weekend afternoon people watching and getting your tan on.

We met up for drinks at Buddakan, the restaurant where Carrie from Sex and the City had her engagement party. We came here in the daytime too during the tour but it was much cooler checking it out at night. We then hit up some fun bars in the West Village and again ended our night with another Gray's Papaya.

h&m dress, seiko watch, imitation balmain sandals, dita sunglasses, lv bag

i got this dress at H&M and love the fit of it. this is my first all black ensemble purchase since i've avoided wearing this color from head to toe for so long since i've outdone it when i was at MAC. for some reason i was really into wearing black and white on this trip, maybe it was that chic vibe i got from New York. but i also got some good use out of these imitation balmain sandals i got earlier this year in february. since you'll do so much walking in new york, flats seem to be an essential so i tried to spare my feet heels for night time only since we were mostly out and about all day. oh and i love love these dita sunglasses, they saved me after my marc jacobs avaitors broke! :(
