Yes I guess it's getting old, I know you might be sick of hearing me going on and on about how much I LOVE the Big Apple, but I can't help myself especially having a girlfriend living there now...I find just about any excuse I can to visit!!!!

| NYC's View from the Top! Never gets old.... |
This time my little excuse was a fine Stella and Dot trunk show and it turned out Sunday is not the best day to have one as far as attendance goes but hey, we had a great time (I might have had a bit too much wine - so not professional) but I was so thrilled to be in NY with my Brazilian buddies and to see my darling friends from school Amy and Katie (in fact I love their style so much I've featured their outfit choices here and at modaindy.com previously!).
Even with my 5 hour flight delay I made a point of enjoying my 'me' time and aside from the time change who caught us totally off guard we managed to have a good time and here are a few pics to prove that ;) hehehehe
DAY 1:
 |
| Dress H&M; leather belt Brave; Leather jacket bebe; black pumps Nine West; handbag mini-mac, Rebecca Minkoff |
Before you wonder what the hell I'm doing in a mini dress in March I'll tell you I had been checking the weather and saw the temps would be in the 50's that weekend, and just so you know upper 30's in the valley is "bare-leg" mode. But obviously I didn't put into account the closeness to the water, the walking around in between buildings that offer a delightful (not) frozen wind and so forth and so on. I know I was getting a lot of stares, just not sure they were good ones! So off we go to our favorite store and I totally had second intentions!
 |
| Boyfriend jeans and vertical striped silk blouse, Zara, the rest you already know ;) hehehe |
At our Zara pit stop I got some of the goodies I wanted and switched my dress for a two piece more weather appropriate ensemble ;)
 |
| At the Rockefeller Building entrance |
 |
| At the Rockefeller Center with Karin, where we had plans to skate but the shopping took it's toll on us.. |
At the Times Square where we were getting ready to find a place for a drink.
But look who we bumped into! Ha, the cowboy who's always there barely clothed, very much willing to take a pic with us ( and mind you he says: Everything is touchable ladies, go on and grab it!) hahaha dude, we're all married ladies! Sorry!!!
 |
| At The View - Marriott Times Square |
Finally we get in the Marriott and go up to the spinning restaurant that literally spins around (very slowly) so you can get a full view of the city. We only had drinks there which were pretty pricey and beware they charge an 8 dollar fee per person just to sit at the table! Bottom line, it's worth it to do it once in a lifetime.
Hope you enjoyed my Saturday in the city. Stick around for day 2 tomorrow ;)
Beijos,
