My roomie of five years/ virtual sister, Carla, & I
spent a few days in NYC
to visit some very dear friends & partake in
some of the events of the
One friend even came down from Boston to spend time with us.
Each time I visit NYC is equally amazing and
just as different as the next. It's safe to say
New York City is definitely one of my favorite
places to visit.
I try to make it there at least once a year.
This is a brief photo synopsis of what happened...
Our friend, Heather currently resides on the Upper West Side.
There is something very charming & peaceful about this
part of Manhattan, especially in the Springtime,
with blooming tulips.
SoHo is personally my favorite part of Manhattan.
I never get tired of wandering around the tiny shops
& cafes this part of the city.
We stopped at a streetside shop called
which sells tiny amazing cupcakes.
The calories (almost) don't count!
We took the Roosevelt Island Tram
to get an excellent view of the city.
Dinner & drinks one evening were had at
the Bowery Hotel. As we were
lounging in the dimmly lit, very small lobby with our cocktials
Michael Stipe & Tilda Swinton parked it at
a table right next to us.
I have been to many bars & lounges & they normally
morph into one blur of the same experience.
But, Apotheke, located
It is best place I've ever enjoyed a
drink....ever.
This place will no doubt be entered into my
normal rotation of places to visit in NYC.
9 Doyers
I don't know what else to tell you..or the taxi driver!
Other noteble spots I checked out:
Blind Barber (speakeasy-style)
La Esquina (speakeasy-style)
This pair of Steven wedges
has been stuck on the "My Style" page
of my Pinterest for a couple of months, but my
online search for these shoes was pretty fruitless,
so I thought stopping by their SoHo Manhattan location
might be worth a shot...SUCCESS!!!
