For those who live in (or are visiting) new york, I must recommend having brunch in this little cafe in the west village called Tartine. They have the most amaaazing warm croissants with homemade jam, it's quite delicious. I'm not a huge pastry type of girl but "T" is and he happened to order one by chance that day, and I just happened to steal a bite. I'm forever hooked. It's a shame that I live on the east side because if I lived closer to the west village I would probably order them in bulk. If you're still not convinced, they also have just an all-around topnotch brunch menu that's below $15 (which is a decent price in ny). I'm actually craving their croissants and cappuccinos now as I write...
This is my parisienne outfit of the day. The vest is makeshift–it doesn't really have that bow. I just added that finishing touch with a silk ribbon that was lying around. Voila! The real looker here is the fact that 1) I have red lipstick on, which rarely happens and 2) my nails. I tried to do an ombre look but it just turned into a dip-dye look which is equally as cool. Yay for nail art!
