Day in the City

Hey,
   The city that never sleeps, you never disappoint! I had the day off from school, so my mom and I decided to go to New York City. I am a city girl through and through. I love walking around the different neighborhoods and seeing everyone's style.We were in the Garment District, Chelsea, and Soho. It was my first time in Soho and I loved it down there. Usually, when we go to the city, we stay around Midtown or Upper East and West side. When we were in Chelsea, we saw the most beautiful flowers and a drag queen!

Trench Coat&Flats: Macy's
Dress&Belt: Meo's Suite
Sunglasses: Kate Spade
Necklace: J.Crew
Tights:Target
Handbag: Deux Lux
 
While we were in the Garment District, we popped into the amazing fabric store know as "Mood". I was in the chiffon aisle and a worker came up to me asking if I needed help. But he wasn't an average worker, he was Kooan Kosuke from season 10 of Project Runway! He was so adorable and animated.He is the second contestant from Project Runway. A few years ago, I meet Jay McCarroll at a Fashion Camp I went to.Thinking back on it, I should have asked for a picture with Kooan but i didn't sadly. But I did find my fabric for my prom dress!!

I dragged my mom down to Soho because I have been dying to go into Topshop. Topshop exceeded my expectations. Everything was so stylish and pretty. Now I know why everyone talks about it. I wished I didn't go in when it was so crowded, everyone and their mother was there. I found the cutest purple tweed dress in the sale section.

$60.00
My mom and I are huge fans of the show, "Say Yes To The Dress", so we decided to swing by Kleinfeld. As we were getting out of the cab, we saw one of the consultants.As she walked by I was like "Hey your from the show". You should have seen my mom, she freaked out. It was Antonella and I got a picture with her! She was super nice and friendly.


   I would highly recommend going into Kleinfeld. Its one of the coolest places if you loves weddings like i do. So all in all, I had one of the best days in New York. If you never been there before, you NEED to go.

My New Love

Hey,
  Recently, my mommy and I went to Marshalls to see if there were any good finds. Most of the time, I go straight for the shoe section.  Because what girl doesn't love shoes? But they did not have anything good, (lately their shoe section has been pretty lack luster).  So I moved onto the handbags, and this little number caught my eye. It was love at first sight!
Original Price: $75.00, Marshalls Price: $39.99
 I love everything about this bag. The orange is the perfect color for summer, I can't wait to use it. It comes with a optional shoulder strap, I use it for decoration! Another reason why I am in love with this bag, is because its literally the perfect size. Its not to big, its not to small. And the last reason and maybe the best is the brand. The designer of this handbag is Deux Lux. If you never heard of this designer before its okay, its the first time I heard of it too. I went on their website and ALL of their products are made with a custom vegan leather and very cute. Being a vegetarian, its hard to find good quality handbags and shoes that aren't leather. I am so glad I found this brand! Have fun shopping. The link for their website will be below.

P.S. If you know any other brands that are vegan and fabulous, comment!
