At the end of a whirlwind week I finally made it to New York. We spent the weekend popping around the city, checking out all of the shops, pulling out our best quintessential all-black outfits, and attempting to stay dry and warm. Where did the mild days of Fall go to? I can’t wait to share some peeks of the weekend throughout the week, but here are some of my new favorite NYC stops…

This week thankfully is a bit calmer so I plan on using it to catch up on sleep and household things. There’s a few busy weekends (surprise surprise) coming my way, so any downtime is going to be capitalized on. Fingers crossed for a movie marathon on ABC family.
Have you tried any of these spots? What’s your favorite NYC stop?
