I just returned home from a quick trip to New York where I truly had one of the best weeks of my life! The energy and vibrancy of NYC cannot be replicated.  I had the greatest time just wandering around the city, trying to hit as many places as I could.  I was able to eat at my favorite restaurant, Rouge Tomate and buy an abundance of French macarons from Ladurée SoHo.  And I was staying right next to some of my favorite shops: Aritzia, Topshop, and Madewell.  But just so you’re not misinformed, I didn’t just shop and eat the entire time! Maybe……. 🙂

Compared to Los Angeles, New York style has elevated sophistication.  Clothing inspiration was everywhere I looked! I love the chic, cosmopolitan silhouettes of garments that are worn in NYC. Not only that, but it seems like anything goes when it comes to street style in New York – from seemingly-insane print mixing to pencil skirts paired with high-tops, this city has it all!  What’s more, the modern simplicity of many of the outfits I saw perfectly coincided with New York’s architecture – the harmonious mix of formal and casual mirrors the combination of tall skyscrapers with street markets and hotdog stands.  New York really has it all.

Just feast your eyes on THIS to push your boundaries and find some style inspiration for yourself!
