A Couple Days in New York

I'm so sorry I haven't posted that much this week! I took a quick trip to New York and it was difficult to take photos before leaving...well, I took a few but I didn't really like the way they turned out. Anyway, here are a few snapshots I took myself...
The view from the James hotel
Tried my best to keep warm in the cold weather! I'm wearing vintage fur and hammered silver necklace, silk blouse, cable knit scarf from Target, Zara cargo pants, and YSL imperial pumps...my facial expression in this picture cracks me up!
I'm so happy to be home! Hope everyone is having a great week... it's almost Friday!

Weren't your feet cold?? The fur coat was probably a good idea... Humidity and cold do NOT go well together..

I do not have as many flats I should either...and I don't really wear the ones I have that often...except for a pair of flat OTK boots, they are exceptional.
