Hello lovelies! Today is Sunday, aka the perfect day to reflect on the previous week and get centered for the week to come. Looking back over the past seven days I can’t help but smile thinking about the adventures and new experiences I had. Some highlights include, walking the High-Line, shopping through SOHO and packaging a PR box for Selena Gomez at LoveShack (!!!!!!!). But my #1 highlight of the week was definitely walking through Williamsburg with my friend Madeleine.
I had been hearing so much about this little boutiquey area and the second I saw the pink Williamsburg bridge I knew I would fall in love. This area of Brooklyn is packed full of cute little shops and restaurants selling everything from antiques to gourmet chocolates. Williamsburg is also home to the dainty and fair-trade jewelry company, Catbird. One day was not enough to see all that the neighborhood has to offer!
Since, it has been a rather warm January in NYC I only needed a light jacket to keep me warm. I paired my favorite artist’s jacket from Anthropologie with a pair of overalls and a neutral long sleeve. To top it off I wore my rose colored sunnies, little did I know that they would match so well with the bridge! Of course I wore a pair of comfy boots, my new staple in the city (you walk everywhere here!).
*this is hot cocoa!!!!!! like whhhhhhattt….so pretty!
The stops included:
Pink Olive: An adorable gifting store full of cards, candles and all sorts of knick knacks.
Sweatshop: They made hot cocoa look like the most beautiful latte I have ever seen.
Loosie’s Kitchen: We didn’t go in but the mural outside made for some really beautiful photos. Also, parts of ‘How to be Single’ were filmed in this area!
Bedford Cheese Shop: By the end of our adventure we were exhausted and starving! We grabbed a bite to eat here and it really hit the spot. I got the soup (chorizo, bean & kale) and Madeleine got the Arthur Ave sandwich. YUM!
Much love, Abigail
