My Wardrobe for My New York City Visit



Last month we visited 
New York City

I packed an 
All Black Wardrobe
with plenty of 
Statement Accessories.




We stayed in 
Midtown
at

I wanted a hotel with a functioning balcony
and
ours was a beauty.
Stepping outside 
you could feel the energy in the city below!




My all black wardrobe consisted of
many separate pieces
and 
one white shirt.

Pieces in which I could walk 
the city
shop
museums 
restaurants




One hat
Gucci glasses
My wrapped pearl necklaces




Our balcony at 


not only had a wonderful view
but made photo shoots a breeze!




A black puffy coat
kept the sun off my face
and
the fur collar was a finishing accessory!




A black backpack
made it easy to change from 
black trainers to walk the city
to a dressier boot
for lunch.




My first adventure 
a beautiful walk down
5th Avenue to SoHo  ...




To visit 




I have been following
Linda
the fabulous owner for years on
Instagram!
She is such a radiant delight!




Her passion for
 hats
and 
customer service 
is truly second to none!




Another stop was
Grand Central Station
to walk through and take in
the majesty of the space.





That evening I got to debut my latest
Crown Design
in the evening!




It finished off my black separates
with a 
high dose of glamour!
And my slicked back hair 
worked perfectly for the rainy night!






We found the sweetest neighborhood restaurant
within walking distant,








The next morning 
I had an appointment at

at the
John Barrett Salon




Trinny's makeup line
 is only available in 
New York City
at 
John Barrett.

I have been ordering it from
London
so I was excited to see the whole line in person!




Lenny Galan
who heads up their Retail and Artistry Education
did my makeup
as well as teaching me more  about their product line.




I was already use the line when I travel
so I really appreciated his added advice
and 
was so happy with the makeup outcome!




Next stop
a short couple of blocks walk 
to one of my very favorite spots in

New York City





My newest oversized cuff designs
and 
rings from  the fabulous

finished off my outfit for the day.




We got a marvelous table for lunch at  the iconic

Bergdorf Goodman
Bg Restaurant

It is always my favorite spot for
lunch in NYC!



We had a truly magical lunch
with the most beautiful snow fall!




After lunch and a bit of shopping
we stopped next door for 
a cocktail
at the also iconic





One of the highlights of our NYC stay at
48Lex
was  Jeff putting up a 
Christmas Tree
on our balcony
complete with lights!










My Holiday Statement Necklace
finished off my dress perfectly 
with a necessary black umbrella
for the rainy day.




Our plan for the day was to 
walk around 








We made our way  in Central Park
to another 
New York City icon







Bread pudding was an indulgent
brunch finish!




Of course I adored their logo
complete with a Crown!

The sheep is a reference to how the building started out
originally as a place for 
Central Park's sheep to sleep
oh so many years ago!




We continued our exploration of 
Central Park
taking in new beauty around every corner.




We stumbled upon this magnificent
Minton Tiled Ceiling
right outside the
Terrace Arcade!


Then we made our way into 
for a Fashion Exhibit

and came out to another 
magical snowfall!

















For my final night of our trip
I pulled out my 
Gold Vintage Brooch Necklace
that I have been adding new broaches
for several years.

I now have it exactly how I want it!
So many of my personal
Art Pieces
grow and change
until I get them just right!

Prepping for a  trip to
New York City
is always
So Inspiring
for my designing process!

I can't wait to return!




As always my friends

I wish you love and joy
as you style your life
