Before Midnight
Aritzia blazer, Brandy Melville top, XXI shorts, Zara shoes, Michael Kors watch
I couldn't decide which color of this top to purchase so I bought it in black, soft pink, and periwinkle. I'm trying to build a wardrobe for my Hawaii trip this coming 4th of July and this laser cutout crop top is perfect. I just bought a nice Rimowa carry-on and intend to pack 5 days worth of clothes without checking anything in. Since I've been doing such a good job traveling light these days, it's really nice to have just the right amount of stuff; and maybe I'll do a "What's in my bag" post when the time comes closer and my summer-attire arsenal is complete.
On another note, I finished watching the whole trilogy of Before Sunset/Sunrise/Midnight this past week and must say, I really enjoyed it. If you're in need of a movie suggestion there's that and for music, I can't get that song Blurred Lines out of my head -- it's too great.
Anyway, have a good weekend! :)
New York Minute
Each time I visit New York, it's always filled with some major dining plans and our quick trip this last weekend was no different. On the first day we arrived, we had lunch at Almond, dinner at The Mercer Kitchen, and drinks at the Merc Bar-- all highly recommended, with very cool vibes. The next day, we took a stroll down the High Line after our Sunday brunch at Fig & Olive, watched the musical Annie on Broadway, then had cocktails on the roof of The NoMad Hotel, followed by a private dinner inside the Cupola Room. If you're looking for a near-perfect 2-night itinerary, this could be a good way to go. It's too bad I (suddenly) developed a fear of flying, otherwise, I would've extended my stay just for one more day -- to peruse around and go shopping. There's never enough time to do everything in New York but when we come, we always make the most of our trips and next time we stay, it will definitely be longer than just a weekend.
