Empire State of Mind

02/15/19 | Canada Goose, Fashion Friday, Ted Baker

Empire State of Mind Fashion Blogger 05

I am back from New York and the last four days have been a whirlwind of meetings, cold medicine, and a crazy 10 hour trip to Amsterdam on Wednesday.  Yes, you read that correctly.  My travel is off the charts and because of that the blog has been taking a bit of a hit but thank you for sticking with me and get ready for some great content I have coming for you over the next few weeks!

Sunday in New York was also my first time wearing these new Ted Baker booties and to say I am in love is an understatement.  I actually have written about his shoes a number of times and this is my fourth pair – they just keep getting better and better! Take a closer look at this outfit I shot on 34th street, only a few blocks from the Empire State Building!

    Glad to see that you enjoyed your visit home. Me too just getting over a virus. Feel better. I was expecting the leopard dress for fashion Friday but the backdrop of the Empire state building works too. I love those purple Ted Baker booties. I like the dress too.

    What, no snow during the arctic blast?

    Hope that your Canada Goose coat was keeping you warm….bhrr in chilly NYC. Looks like it was a really clear day thought.

    Those Ted Baker booties are the best. Such a great color to spice up the black outfit you are wearing.

    I have one pair of them and it is time to add one more.
