Hello Readers!
Sorry for taking some time off of my writing to catch up with y'all. This past weekend I had so much fun and inspiration that I had to write a little bit about it. My girlfriends came to New York to spend time with me for my Bachelorette weekend. With being busy with work and planning a wedding, I sure needed one!
I felt so special that my friends came to wish me well and took the time out of their busy schedules to have a fun weekend in the city. I missed them so much! We went down to Times Square to celebrate this special occasion. As I get use to being a "New" New Yorker, the less I want to even step foot around Times Square because of the constant " tourist" vibe I get from the area. But since it was such a special occasion, I felt the need to become a tourist in my new city.
When I got off work, I walked into the "W" Times Square and felt an immediate Bachelorette vibe. The colors in the hotel remind me of my favorite girly colors as a child. " Pink and Purple" were the colors splashed all over the contemporary decor. This screams Cyndi Lauper's Girls Just Want to Have Fun! Fun, Fun, Fun!
I met my sister and my best friend from college at the door. Then my other girlfriend flew in from Chicago. I was immediately overwhelmed with friend fuzziness!
That weekend we hit so many " New York" hot spots. Soho for boutique shopping, (my favorite area in the city), Mercer Kitchen, a 5th Avenue shopping extravaganza, observing the Sesame Street Set and cast outside The Plaza Hotel, New York Caprese Pizza, Beauty and Essex, Bloomingdales, Henri Bendel, Sprinkles ATM Cupcake Machine, Lips Drag Show, Rockefeller Plaza Summer Patio Restaurant, Salud's Juice Bar, Laduree Macaroons, Justin Timberlake playing ALL weekend, and My girlfriend falling from her wedge while walking out of a boutique. Ouch! Lol! We did a lot more but I can't go on.
My point is, we become so busy while growing into our adult bodies and careers, we sometimes lose touch with our friends and what's important to treasure and hold onto. I will never forget this past weekend and how I need to cut out time for people that are important in my life. Thank you ladies for an unforgettable weekend! I can't thank my sister enough for these memories I will never forget. Our next annual trip should be Paris? Dreams do come true if you believe in them! XOXO
