SO, had a lovely first day. It seems like you can basically walk around one block and find all the shopping, food, buildings and people you can ever really need! I am meeting up with a few girls for drinks tonight and may change before I go. I will take more pictures! I really didn't bring much. Had to share a suit case with my husband so, ya, there will not be much variety. I looked around the shops, but it is really hard for me to buy things that have like 8 identical sisters sitting there behind them. Everything that is new feels sort of like it is trying to be as cool as its older (vintage) sister. It's Weird. Maybe I will try to get to Beacon's Closet or something!
COMMENT OF THE DAY: AHH!! It is so cool to know that I am SO CLOSE to so many of you! Passing outside your offices while you work! This is the only time I wish I had twitter so I could be like "at 38th and 5th street, if you are close by come outside and say hi!" or "I am in Times Square, if you work near here meet me by the Walgreens!" I guess that is sort of asking for trouble though!
You are right by my work (38th and 5th)!! I pass those lions 3 times a week, haha. So very cool:D Also, I live by Beacon's Closet! There is one in Park Slope (by me) and a bigger one in Williamsburg. Btw, the hair looks adorable, and that dress + tshirt = amazingness. I hope you're enjoying NYC!!

You made it! Looking great of corse! I know what you mean about shopping new, I have a really hard time with it and usually will only buy things that are on "super" sale. It's much easier for me to pick things out at thrift stores because I have been going to them since I was a kid. I look for colors, textures and fabrics and it goes pretty quick these days. I think my mom thinks I am crazy because when I come home for the holidays I only want to go to the thrift stores. They are a dream in smaller towns! Have a blast dear!!
such fabulous photos!
i'm so glad to hear that you guys are having a great time! :)
You really do look British and your husband really looks like Prince Williams! You lucky! :) I loved these photos a lot! You look so alive and excited! And you look wonderful of course!
Your husband looks like Hugh Jackman!! :D Lucky gal!
You are too cute! I hope you're enjoying your time in NYC! It was so fun to see pics of you in Times Square right outside my office! And you definitely should go to Beacon's Closet!
Yey! You got to go to Fashion Week! Have so much fun, wish I could've gone! Maybe in the fall.

You kinda look like Katy Perry in the last picture. Gorgeous hair like hers.
:)
Aww I hope you have a BLAST in NYC! That's so great that your husband got to go with you too.. you guys are one good looking couple!
You and your husband are adorable, no wonder you got hit on by an English book seller.
You must tell us all about Beacon's Closet, I hear wonderful things about it but can never get to one.
Looks like so much fun! I think being mistaken for Brits is the highest sort of compliment! I love NYC... sort of wish I was there right now. :)
eeek! enjoy your time here! if you have the time, i think you will really really really enjoy Alice's Tea Cup on 84th and Lexington. great place that will keep your nice and toasty.
damn, i made a mistake! lol its 64th and Lexington**
So jealous of your New York trip! My husband could not go with me so I couldn't make it for the conference. Sadly, he has an architecture exam in 2 weeks and has to study. But, I am so excited to see all of you girls chronical it for me!
Love it! the bag is gorgeous
It's so exciting reading about your nyfw adventures! I'm so happy for you that you ended up deciding to go (and selling your coat collection to do so!) Eagerly awaiting your next post back here in San Francisco :)
You look great!! Love everything in this outfit.. Hope you're having a blast..

Yay! You're in NY! I love the outfit and that purse is just amazing!
i just can't stand how adorable you are! like a cuter maggie gyllenhall. i love the high socks peeking from the boots with the tights- one of my absolute FAVORITE looks. have fun!!
I love how you've styled your dress! Such adorable photos too - I hope you're staying warm in this freezing weather!
Hilarious! I would love to be mistaken for a Brit, I love the culture, I was just bragging on Doctor Who a few seconds ago :) You look like you are having fun, keep it up. And, your hair looks really pretty!
And I get asked if I'm local all the time! I hope you're having fun.
love how you paired the socks with the tights with the boots!

Oh, I hope you're having the most wonderful time! You DO look British - many of us English girls favour muted tones, heavy layers and a twinkle in our eye during the cold winter months!
Your hubby is such a cutie - very regal. :) xx
I just discovered your blog, I love your style, and I love this bag!! I will def follow :)

It was so great to meet you and your husband. I'm so glad I decided to go to the bathroom at Pain Quotidien! I'm without all my gadgets to upload photos, so I'll share my pics with you when I get back to Boston.
Oh how funny about the getting hit on.. No wonder!
I feel the same way as you do with "normal" shops. I just feel like i can't buy something that has that many identical friends haha. I like to be unique I guess!! Keep having fun!
have fun! you both look freakin' great :)
btw, are those aa high socks? i'm contemplating getting some but not sure if they are worth it.
they look great on you, if that's them.
