Tripping the Light Fantastic

That Damn Green Dress Visits


A few weeks ago, my dear blog-friend-turned-real-life-kindred-spirit, Sarah, was in NYC for work. She was diligent enough to post about her trip soon after here. Me on the other hand... sigh. I will however say that my tardiness is in direct correlation of how much fun we had on her visit.

There was plenty of eating - dinner and wine at Commerce in the West Village, salty pimp sundae cones at Big Gay Ice Cream and then a hearty brunch at Maialino - and a whole lot of gabbing. So many times during her visit, I silently gave thanks for all the wonderful people I have met through this blog that have gone on to grace my life beyond the confines of cyberspace.

Anyway, there were selfish reasons for choosing Maialino as I couldn't let go of the chance to show Sarah one of my favourite places in the city (forgive me for flogging a dead horse). After gorging on eggs and pancakes, we walked around Gramercy Park - peeking in through the tall gates keeping us out - and then did what style bloggers are want to do in the presence of good lighting and a pretty background:


J Crew Maritime Anchor Dress (sim, sim and many sim); Club Monaco short-sleeved Carol Parka and necklace, Hermes Garden Party bag and scarf, Steve Madden Tippsy glitter sandals



Hope you've had a great weekend - I spent mine at Soul Cycle, brunch, working out seating arrangements for the wedding reception and finally finishing off The Sopranos (arrgghh can we please discuss that Diner ending?!)

    Such a lovely park- made all the more alluring by its exclusivity! It was a glorious couple of days, and I look forward to more, be it when you visit la Montreal or when I get to come back!
    *sniff* this feels like just a couple of days ago!
