Leather leggings, where have you been all my life? During our time in SoHo we stopped into the Aritzia store on Broadway and I had some fun with their staff, styling a few cold weather looks for NYC. These faux leather leggings, thick knit sweater, and bomber jacket were the perfect pieces to layer with over a plain tee while running around the city that day. Lunch and a sweet treat at Maman hit the spot before shopping around a bit more and meeting with friends for coffee. For the most part it was a pretty laid back day and the chill in the air reminded us why we loved New York this time of year so much. We ended up heading back to Long Island during rush hour for a family dinner, and in true New York fashion dashed from our cab in the middle of bumper to bumper traffic to catch our train. Running through Penn Station definitely brought back some memories for us. Haha! READ MORE
Last week we spent a few days in NY, with our time split between the city and Long Island. It was a busy week filled with birthday celebrations, wedding festivities and catching up with friends and family, with a bit of work mixed in. It was the first time we had been back since last July, so we tried to pack in as much as we could in those few short days. It definitely felt like a marathon at times, but we had so much fun revisiting some of our favorite old spots, like the park we got engaged in and our go-to coffee shop, meeting up with friends in the East Village for some tasty treats, and strolling through Chelsea. One thing we definitely underestimated was how drastic the temperature change was. From AZ to NY, temperatures dropped almost 30 degrees and our bodies definitely weren’t ready for it. We’re still nursing some colds we picked up along the way. Wish we had snapped a few more photos, but we really just enjoyed our time catching up on life with those close to us. Until next time New York!
