I have a thing for...

Flared Pants 

 



I love the look of flared pants with heels! I just bought a pair in new york and I think that they are just the best things ever. I love how they are extra long which make you look extra tall. I wore mine the other day with flats which looked awkward, these pants definitely look best with a chunky heel of some sort. I like the look with a blouse tucked in.
Don't you just love SJP's hair curled like that? flat on top, curled on bottom. yes please. 

Hope everyone has an adventurous weekend!

NEW YORK CITY: day four

January 28



The secret restaurant Hudson Clearwater

Saturday was a very busy day for us. We started out the day by doing some shopping then later that evening we decided to walk along the Brooklyn Bridge.We were planning on staying in Brooklyn for pizza at Grimaldi's, but when we got there, the line to eat was out the door! We stopped at Starbucks for a quick hot chocolate and some pumpkin bread (my favorite) We headed back to Manhattan. I read on a Cup Of Jo that there was a secret restaurant called Hudson Clearwater so my and my mom looked it up. We found the address, but it was so hidden that we didn't know where the door was! We almost turned around but then we realized this creepy green door in the middle of this brick wall. We walked in and it let us to this quaint little garden with tight strung above us. It was so cute. Once we opened the curtain to the restaurant, not even knowing what to expect, there was a fun atmosphere of friendly people and candles all through out the restaurant. It was so cool to know about this little place that a lot of New Yorkers probably don't even know about! After our dinner we walked through Rockefeller which was the last thing on our list of place to see and things to accomplish while in NYC. We got there are saw the skating rink. My mom told me that I should go but she doesn't like skating so I would have to go alone. I was hesitant to skate alone and the skates would be awful but I did it! It was so amazing. I LOVED IT! Wow my trip to new york was so awesome! I miss it already. My mama was the best travel buddy/ subway navigator ever!

NEW YORK CITY: day three

January 27 

Lalo Cafe.

Yes, waffles for lunch.

I love brick wall!

It was a red kind of day.

Phantom of the Opera



Midnight Cupcakes in bed.

Like I said, we splurged... all I have to say to that is thank goodness we walked around 10 miles a day. Day three was a rainy one, but a rainy one well spent! We went to the Guggenheim which was so interesting. Seeing original Picasso and Van Gogh is something really amazing. After our museum tour we walked across the street to central park in the rain with our umbrellas. We found our little cafe that we were looking for. Cafe Lalo. It is in the cutest part of town and it had amazing waffles with cinnimon whipped cream. oh and I can't forget the little stop at Magnolias again on our way home... don't worry we bought some to stay and eat there and to take home. Because of all the walking, we stopped at our hotel and took a power nap which turned into 2 hours of much needed rest. we woke up to a pretty sunset and got ready for the Phantom of the Opera. It was absolutely unreal how well those people can sing. The settings and props were so amazing as well. I loved it. That lovely outing followed by a midnight cupcake from magnolias from our earlier stop during the day.
