A Weekend in NYC

I wore this simple and comfortable dress during one of our days in NYC. It was perfect for strolling around the city and kept me cool. I sported these slip-on sneakers during the day and switched them out for sandals before our evening dinner at Fornino's in Brooklyn (great place that we highly recommend!). We had such a fun time and I hope you enjoy these photos!

Stripes and Slides

Each season I find myself loving one trend or another. This season it's leather slides. I got this pair from Asos weeks ago and since then, they've sold out. I have to admit, I was a hater of this trend when it first came out. It screamed ugly and I wanted nothing to do with it. Then a month or two went by and I found myself growing more and more attached. And then I took the plunge and bought a pair. They rode with me all throughout Europe and now into my day-to-day adventures. So if you're on the fence about getting a pair, don't be. You won't regret it!

Here are some cute leather options::

p.s. Yes, this is a dress folded into a top. See it as a dress here. 

Have a wonderful day!
