HI GUYS.

I’M BACK.

Literally and literally.

I took a week off from posting on the blog while I was in New York for Fashion Week because there was just so much going on! I wanted to fully enjoy the week and also we got back every night to our hotel room at midnight, and I needed to rest up for the next busy day! But I’m back with so many outfit posts, starting with this one which I wore our first day there to go exploring!

Who else wore tees with strappy dresses like this back in grade school?! It is so funny to me how all these things keep coming back around! And I love it. I actually almost got rid of this dress recently because I wasn’t wearing it at all, but usually when things are basic colors, I try to keep them around just in case! And when I wanted a dress to style like this, I realized I already had one! Score. If you haven’t tried out this trend yet, get a dress like this and pair it with a basic tee like this, a lace top, a turtleneck or even a graphic tee! You can wear it with booties like I did here, some cute sneaks or heels to dress it up!

P.S. These booties are SO comfy. I wore them around the whole day walking in New York City several times, and my feet didn’t even hurt! Just make sure to size down.

You guys. I am in love with New York! It was my first time there, and I can’t wait to go back. There’s so much to do! This outfit is from our first day, and we squeezed in so much! We walked all over, took tons of photos, went to Dumbo, took the ferry, got ice cream, saw the Statue of Liberty, and then went to dinner! It was such a fun day! As far as food goes, we found this bomb salad place called Sweetgreen that’s basically like a Chipotle but with salads. If you’re looking for something healthy and affordable when you’re in NYC, this place is perfect! We went a few times, and I SO wish we had one here! (Actually just looked, and we do have it! Just out in LA!) We had dinner at The Smith, and the gnocchi pasta was incredible! The ice cream in Brooklyn at The Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory tasted homemade. You have to go if you’re in New York. (Beware I went to three ice cream places, and I will tell you you HAVE to go to all of them. #icecreamlover)

Can’t wait to show you all of my outfits from NYC! I have casual ones like this that I wore for exploring and more fancy ones I wore for shows and events!

Have the best week!

xoxo,

Christine
