NYC TopShop

21 3 4 5

Hey dudes…. so thought I would post again since we are back in the hotel and have a couple hours to spare…man is this city BUSY! Its tiring believe it or not and really, I don't think I would be able to last more than a few days in NYC…11 USD per half hour to park?! No wonder everyone uses public transit and taxis…that's nuts! We passed by Topshop and I picked up a leather purse…its the one I'm holding in the third picture…didn't end up getting the shoes because unfortunately, I don't think they were very flattering on me…and I really wanted them to be :( ….Also didn't get any of the clothes because I found much of it to be way overpriced but it was a lot of fun to shop around nevertheless…J and I have been spending most of our money on food …which to me is a lot more important then a $70 cotton shirt at the moment ;) ….Also wanted to say thank you to Emily for coming up to me to say hello =)…never had one of my readers spot me out before!

So far the experience has been awesome (other than the rain...its has been raining a lot here...good thing we came prepared with HUGE umbrellas ;)... Today we'll most likely visit Central Park and the Statue of Liberty...can't wait! We have visited most of the other attractions in NY already...

P.s. If you ever go to TopShop and are a student, bring your student ID card because you get an extra 10% off which is pretty sweet. I forgot mine =(

ohhh how exciting! i'm heading to NYC next weekend! i'm super pumped to check out the guggenheim, and topshop. I haven't been there since i was 12! you should have bought a subway weekly pass. they're only $27. If you're still in NYC when you read this, check out this link for designer discount shops: http://nymag.com/guides/cheap/clothing/

Christen- Will do...really loved a lot of the little spots in Soho so I would recommend going there..we usually just walk around until we find some cool place to eat =)

Emma- Leaving tomorrow morning...I would have loved to but im with my family as well as J so makes it a little tough :s

JordanMaytwigs- Going to Times Square I think but we might end up in Soho later on ... =) Have fun if I dont bump into you girlie :P

Delmy- Have fun girlie..! Bring a VISA or something bc prices are nuts :p....haha...I like their leather goods...think those are worth the money (bags and shoes)

Chantelle- We are in Jesey and take a 10 min train to get to NYC so the pass would have costed more...but thanks for the suggestion love! You will have a blast, hope you put up pics ..or at least send me a couple :P

Thanks to everyone who left me suggestions on places to go...You guys rock!

Topshop is a fantastic place. I got a lot of stuff from there over the summer. I can not wait to go back. Hopefully I'll be able to go on Fashion's Night Out next Thursday.
