Sweet Little Nothings…

This weekend, I’ve made absolutely ZERO plans! Instead, I’m hoping to clean up my entire apartment from top to bottom and catch up on some reading. In the mean time, here’s a visual highlight of things that made me smile this past week…

Lunch at  Food Hall inside the Plaza Hotel.  The lobster rolls and prime rib sliders are DIVINE!

My new necklace and sweatshirt from J. Crew.  I’ve been searching for a multi-strand pearl choker for ages, and this one is perfect.

This is one of my favorite dresses that I don’t wear nearly often enough.  Since it’s such a head-turning statement piece, I usually reserve it for special outings.  But last weekend, I felt like wearing it just ’cause.  Eric joked that I could probably hide a small child in my sleeves.  We tested the theory, and it turns out that they can definitely hold my wallet, keys and cellphone… with room to spare!

While I definitely enjoyed my vacation, it felt so good to be back in the city.  As soon as I got back home, the first thing I did was put on all black before hopping onto a subway to hang out in Soho.  It was one of those rare times when we pretty much had the entire train car to ourselves, so I entertained myself with an impromptu photo shoot.
