New York in Photos {day one}

Last week, I went on a whirlwind two-day, two-night trip to the Big Apple with BCBGMAXAZRIA to see their offices and attend their Fall 2013 show. To say that it was special would be an understatement: I had been longing for another visit to the city after a trip there last May, and to be able to attend with a brand that I’ve been shopping at for years made it that much sweeter…

After arriving into Manhattan late Tuesday night and getting some much-needed shut eye, we set out for a productive first day. It was packed full of goodness, including a visit to the BCBGMAXAZRIA New York head offices and their 5th Avenue store, a walk through Bryant Park, delicious meals at The NoMad Hotel (where we also stayed) and The Lion, and the best part: an interview with the beautiful Lubov Azria herself (she was remarkably sweet and talented, and I’m excited to share later this week!). Here are some photo highlights of the day – I hope you enjoy them!

A Case of Wanderlust

I once read that the more you travel, the more you want to travel. While I certainly don’t think that I am well traveled by any means, that sentiment has certainly rung true for me thus far. I feel immensely blessed to have been able to visit some extraordinary places in my relatively young life. And, over the past few years, I’ve truly come to believe that there is no better, or more fun, way of opening your eyes than to travel.While going through my external hard-drive recently, I stumbled upon the photos from these voyages and wanted to share some of my favourite places with you. I also feel that I’ve been bitten by the travel bug once again, so… where to next? As cliche as it sounds, I dream of Paris… how about you?
