West Village

June 4, 2012


Last week, I was fortunate enough to fly to New York for a last minute trip with D. Since it wasn’t our first time in the city, we decided to forgo the more touristy activities and opted to do one of our favourite things instead: to explore new neighbourhoods and all that they have to offer. Among the many distinct little areas we visited, West Village was probably my favourite: with its delightful boutiques, cute cafes, and cobblestone roads, it had an undeniable charm that was all its own. The neighbourhood also featured rows upon rows of picture-perfect apartment buildings, which made a pretty ideal backdrop for this summery travel outfit.



Stay tuned this week for lots more photos from the Big Apple!

    I saw a picture of Jessica Alba sporting a similar hat and thought to myself that I should try it out and here I find you in this fabulous hat and you have me thinking I definitely need a new hat. Love the wider brim.
    This outfit is fabulous! Love the tweed shorts paired with that pretty blouse.

    Lovely photos! And you look adorable as always.

    Lawrence and I loved West Village the last time we went to New York. There’s this great restaurant there called The Little Owl. Best meal of our trip, hands down.

    Sooo cute! Especially with your hat on… that’s really great with your outfit! Never gone to NYC yet… I’m hoping I can stop by sometime in the future. I’m originally from Japan and I heard it’s basically like Tokyo city… lol

    LOVE this Jen! Taking outfit photos on brownstone steps in New York is something I’m itching to do and I’m so happy you did it! Can’t wait to see more from your last minute trip and of course your outfit is perfect; you look just like a New Yorker 🙂

    Awe, I’m SO glad you enjoyed your trip to NYC – and enjoyed my new neighborhood (the West Village is my favorite too)! 😉 Hope you come back soon and that we can meet up this time! I think a spontaneous NYC trip is the best kind… so much to discover + explore. x
