BACK FROM NYC

Well my trip to NYC was fantastic! 

So much fun stuff went down!

Our first day was spent at the US Open, where I watched Sharapova,

Isner, Del Potro and I was even court side at Nadal's match!

He is soooo much better looking in person ;)

The next day was spent shopping!

Bergdorf Goodman is always a favorite :)

I absolutely love Henri Bendel!

Kate Spade is always cute <3

And I always find great buys at Zara's!

We also stayed at a fun hotel, the Dream Downtown, and ate at some

hip restaurants!

Enjoy!

OFF TO THE BIG APPLE

Well I'm off to the Big Apple this morning!

Excited to do a little shopping, eat some tasty food, and 

watch some good tennis!

I will for sure post about the week!

Hasta la Pasta!

DESTINATION DINING: BLUE FIN TIMES SQUARE

Times Square... Flashy lights, cheesy sports bars, and annoying tourists, but despite all the chaos there is one place in particular that is hip, Blue Fin at the W hotel. Sit down and enjoy their tasty oysters and clams, or just enjoy some espresso and desert. Yum :)
