tuesday’s girl: bound for NYC.

i’m bound for new york city tomorrow! i’m headed there mostly on holiday and to visit some of my best blogger pals, attend ICFF and take a peek the surtex stationery show. but mostly i’m just there to cruise around and play like a new yorker for the week. i am always hot in new york (maybe it’s the humidity i’m not used to!) so i tend to bring a few basics, like tee’s and flats, jeans, and a blazer. i dress those up with fun scarves and vintage jewelry and i’m usually good to go. i like to keep it easy!

clockwise, l to r: elliott the boyfriend jeans from anthropologie; kelly wearstler feline scarf; j.crew Factory crystallized elastic bracelet; grapefruit colored baggu clutch; my slow and steady gray trenchcoat (it’s raining in nyc!); j.crew striped silk bow cami; and my very favorite and super comfy martha davis low black booties.

clockwise, l to r: hobbs NW3 Bexley Peplum Jacket blazer; anthropologie striped reese tee with lace trim; emerson fry tie-waist orange dress; Jersey striped maxi skirt from j.crew; colbie ballerina flats from anthropologie; and baggu black leather tote.

Sounds like you’re going to have a lovely time. Wish I was also bound for NYC for a week. xo
I am also going to New York tomorrow, and for the very first time too! I am really, really excited and I hope I packed accordingly (for a first timer).
Have fun!

Oh NYC! Last time I went I was only 17 & had 100$ for the hole 3 days I was there. Can’t wait to go back and spoil myself, that would be a sweet revenge. Have fun!
I love all your pics – bon voyage!
I’m jealous. Have a great time! Teri
sounds like a whole lotta good times ahead! be safe and have fun, victoria!
Fun, fun, fun! Say Hi to NYC for me. xxx
Have a ton of fun. I miss living in Massachusetts and being able to hop on a short 4-hour bus to get to NYC. Haven’t been back since and miss it a ton.
Love the Martha Davis booties. Where to get them??? Have fun in NYC – I just got back from there. Came back broke, but happy:)
i got them on fab.com! :)
Have a great time in my hometown, Victoria. I hope to see some posts about your trip. It’s muggy now, but the flowers and street trees have all popped from the rain.
Love- Kelly Wearstler has the best scarves.
Love when you do this. I still look at your Paris trip every so often. You have awesome taste. Have so much fun with the gang.
Have a great time! If you’re in Williamsburg, please pop into Beacon’s Closet. http://www.beaconscloset.com/ My son Eric works there. Tell him you’re from San Francisco and you know me via your beautiful blog.
Also the wall-size Avedon photos of Andy Warhol and his Factory posse are on view @ the Gagosian gallery right now. Neat-o.
Look forward to your NYC posts.
