Some last shots from NYC

2IMG_44601

So these will be the last shots that kind of show what I was wearing….to be honest, the weather was not the greatest so I wore pants and my black Kenneth Cole boyfriend blazer most of the time..and a hat to help ward off the rain! I picked up these pants at a shop that I think was called Mystique or something like that in Soho and as you can see, I could not wait to wear them the next day (same goes for the new Topshop purse) :P… My feet were killing me because…well…believe it or not….Docs may not be the most comfortable shoes to walk around in for 7 hours! So here I am wearing Urban Outfitters runners that totally clashed but I guess that's why I also kind of love them.

I loved NYC but am glad to be back… It is such a crazy city that it doesn't matter what time of the day it is whether it be 9am, 12pm, 3am ….there are people EVERYWHERE and whatever they are on….I want it…I'm guessing red bull? coffee? haha….just so much energy! I can only imagine what it must be like, trying to get to work everyday in the big city….I do kind of miss it though. Last shot was taken in Times Square and this was one of my favourite spots…it was just amazing to be able to sit back and relax with my ice cream cone and McDs coffee (which I would not recommend by the way :P) and just take in the hustle and bustle while still somewhat remaining in my own peaceful little bubble…Loved being able to sit smack in the middle of chaos and just sit back..we stayed there for about an hour just relaxing, talking and eating.

Well its back to work and off to Oregon on my business trip in another week! So here I am unpacking but…will soon be packing once again…just this time it will be even tougher because I need to pack a proper “work wardrobe””. Obviously, I need to bring attire that is quite different from what you see on my blog so I don't even know if I will really post…Maybe a couple little posts :P

Sounds like a fun trip, NYC is great but I LOVE our Toronto :)... nothing beats home :P

Personally, I think that it would be interesting to see how you integrate your personal style with work "uniform". It always frustrates me getting dressed for the gallery or meeting with my boss (aka also my one of my profs)... so it would definitely be inspiring :)

Oh please post work outfits! I always need inspiration for office-wear. Especially since I'd rather be wearing ripped jeans and an urban top.
