Week in photos

{My least favorite part of vacationing is unpacking. So I thought I would procrastinate a bit more by updating the old blog!}

Observations for the week:

The hubs showed me this gem of a Halloween house. I can't imagine how long putting up all these decorations took!


I always overpack when I travel and end up wearing the same things over and over again. I need to remember to pack lighter!


Here I am with Mr&Mrs. E. She is a doll!


No photo could do the 9|11 Memorial justice. The pools are amazing. I am just glad we were able to pay our respects.


Us at the Highline.


The view from the Top of Rockefeller Center is amazing but getting good night snaps can be problematic.


We only saw one show this trip. We tried the lottery for The Book of Mormon but didn't get ticktes. Billy Elliot was a great one, though.

And what I wore

all items remix'd*
jacket: A|X
sweater: Gap
jeans: J. Crew
boots: Target
scarf&bag: Missoni for Target (*except these)

I pretty much wore a variation of this outfit the entire trip. Even thought NYC is the fashion capital of the world to me, I prefer to be comfortable when travelling and outfits were second to enjoying our time.

Add a jacket

all items remix'd
sweater: Uniqlo
dress: ABS
boots: Anthro
sunnies: Dsquared
earrings: Collingnon Designs
tights: Loft

I wore this to the surprise baby shower my sister's friends threw for her. Although Brady Gaga is her 2nd babe, all of these mommy friends didn't get to know her until after the 1st one was born so they wanted to do something special for her.


blazer: Armani Exchange, remix'd

I didn't think to add to jacket until looking being inspired by Lucky magazine (and probably countless bloggers who wear jackets all the time). I'm not sure why I don't wear jackets more often...probably because it's either blazing hot here or cold enough for heavy coats. At any rate, I definitely like the polish the jacket brings to the look.


I didn't think I would be able to participate in this challenge, but I made it!
