Boyfriend jeans with a sparkly twist

 
Good morning dolls! Monday is looking grey with rain but I'm thankful we
 had an amazingly warm and sunny weekend.
 
I wore this outfit on Friday for a dinner at Buvette. It’s my # 1 go-to-spot for brunch but
 it was my first time going for dinner. I can’t express how amazing their food is and their wines
are simply delicious. Best part about spring? Finally getting to dine outside, whether in the
rooftop or in the garden, it really makes it that much more enjoyable.

And I finally took my beloved glittery shoes for a spin. The minute I saw them, I had a
Dorothy moment and after a fraction of hesitation I had to take them home. Paired with
boyfriend jeans, creates the perfect balance of casual chic and adds an unexpected twist.
Yellow top was a no-brainer and red lips just pulled it all together. What do you guys think?




 
I hope you weekend was just as fun and relaxing.

Brooklyn Bridge


There is nothing I love more than walks on the Brooklyn Bridge. There is something
really cool about walking on a bridge and seeing cars shooing by from both sides.
The views are amazing!
First white of the season!
 
Without really planning it, we ended up walking all the way to Brooklyn and ended up in one my
favorite parks overlooking the bridge. After a few hours (minutes) of laying on the grass (why did I have to wear white pants?!) we fuelled up on the most amazing pizza and beer
(apricot and blueberry flavored, yes please!) at Ignazio's and made our walk back to the city.


 
Time and time again I’m reminded that the best days are those that are completly
unplanned. So here is to more spontaneous days like this one.
 
 
Zara tee + pants
blazer: Club Monaco
clutch: Kate Spade

Is there a specific place you like to go to on your day off?

It's all in the details

 
Happy Monday my lovelies! I hope you had an amazing
and relaxing weekend.


This was my Saturday outfit for a mimosa filled brunch at Agave followed by some bar
hopping to catch the Knicks game. All in all, an amazing day filled with lots of drinks, great
food and great company, couldn’t ask for more.

 
I went rather simple with my outfit, but used accessories for a fun and colorful look. A
statement necklace and colorful shoes are all you need to makeover any outfit. And I couldn’t
wait to show off my new bag that my guy recently surprised me with. He really is the best.

White blossoms in West Village

 

Hello my lovelies!

Coming off the 70s temperature high, it became a bit chilly for a few days so I opted for silk pants (or as I call them PJs, similar once worn here) but kept warm with a sweater and a light jacket.  I kept it somewhat light with a white handbag and a white bejeweled sweater, to still have that spring feeling. And what do you know? I ended up perfectly blending in with the gorgeously blooming trees.



I have to say, west village is my all-time favorite, so it’s not surprising that it is also my favorite photo opt spot. Everything looks picturesque and quaint. There is something soothing about rows and rows of gorgeous brownstones covered in greenery and beautiful tulips. I always get so inspired just walking through different streets admiring the architecture.

Playing dress up with eShakti

Good morning dolls! Hope you all had an amazing weekend
and ready to kick this weeks butt

The lovely team at eShakti gifted me with this gorgeous dress (perfect for spring) and I couldn't possibly wait for an actual occasion to wear it (I’m thinking a wedding or a baby shower or maybe just a very grand brunch preferably at the Tiffany’s, a girl can dream) and decided to just play dress up. So voila, this is how I would style it if I actually was attending one of these events.
What do you guys think?


What I love most about this brand is that it lets you customize your dress to your needs
and likes (the length of the dress, the preference of the sleeves, and even a custom size).
What's not to love?!


I fell in love with the color but the detailed flowers really had me swooning.

Yellow denim

Hello my lovelies!
 
It’s been so lovely and warm in NYC (high 70s) that I just want to sing at the
top of my lungs (I can't sing). Winter feels ages away and I plan on spending a
small part of my weekend shoving down all the sweaters and winter
coats as far away as possible.
 

Warm rays of sunshine have such a blissful effect on me that I cannot help but want
to wrap myself in color on daily basis. Case in point , I dug up these buttercup
yellows for a day around NYC, finally giving my open toes a breather.


I’ll make any excuse to be outside soaking up the sun, so it’s safe to say I’ll be somewhere out and about this weekend. For more photos and updates throughout the weekend follow me on Instagram (anightinnyc) or Twitter (@anightinnyc).

Casual and simple, but the heels add just a touch of glamour and
you can never go wrong with a crisp white button down.

Boyfriend jeans & whites

 
Happy Monday dolls! I'm so excited that
it is finally starting to feel like Spring in NY.
 

This has pretty much been my go-to outfit for the weekend. Some comfy jeans,
a quirky tee and a blazer to tie it all together for a more polished look.


My guy and I ventured out to Cental Park in search for some cherry blossom trees.
You can see more pictures on my instagram (anightinnyc) or twitter  @anightinnyc.

We finished the day by a trip to a little slice of heaven, Laduree and
walked away with some colorful confections.

Mint & Yellow



Happy Thursday! This was my Easter look from past weekend. We had such amazing weather that lasted one day only, but I decided to take full advantage and go all spring. Colors, colors and more colors. What do you guys think?

Showcasing my new sunnies. I like to invest in classical styles but when it comes to trends,
I tend to just go for fun, colorful and affordable. Case in point, these lovely flower sunnies.
Get them here.
