sleepless in the city.






waiting it out at jfk...
just about to board. 

after numerous trips to the city, i can finally say i've experienced two sleepless nights in the city that literally never.sleeps. ever.

my last few days in brooklyn were glorious.
finally made my way to beacons closet but was a tad pressed for time... so only escaped with a cute slip/dress.
i'm picturing it lusciously layered over a sweater for the "winter" upon my return.

i am exhausted beyond belief, but feel so blessed to have made some amazing new friends.

i will always need my yearly nyc fix 
;)

see you in south africa!!!

  15. Hey, greeeat blog :D, especially since you live in South Africa and that's where i am from (but live in England now).
    My Dad lives in Cape Town and the city is really pretty, but I know nothing about it fashion wise.
    I think it'd be really cool if you could do a guide to the city, which places you like to go for fashion?
    Then us travelling over there could find some cool places to go!

  16. I'll be there soon!! Glad you had so much fun in NYC
    I also need my "annual NYC" but about a year ago I decided to branch out and I travelled up and down the East and West coasts of the USA and I must say...

    NYC may be the best, but there is a very appealing "rest"

  17. haha yes it was definitely you.. I was walking a little outside of soho and you looked as good as you do in pictures!!! i would've said hello but i wasn't positive it was you

    ive been reading your blog since sept/oct-ish. i rarely get to go to into the city so the likelihood of me running into you and the fact that youre visiting from south africa is just crazyy!.. hope you had fun and a safe ride back
