I hadn’t been back to New York since I was pregnant with Archie so it felt great to be back in the city for a minute. I flew out there with one of my best gal pals and we ate and shopped our way through Soho…

This was the event that brought me to New York. We celebrated with Zac Posen and Ecco Domani Wine for the launch of their latest wine label collaboration in the courtyard of Laduree. It was such a stunning setting! Then we had a nightcap on the rooftop at our hotel, 60 Soho. I also used this as the excuse I have been waiting for to buy a dress by Self-Portrait. This black one is a stunner.

 Gathered with a few friends for dinner at The Fat Radish. A beautiful spot as well as delish British fare.

We ended the trip with a shopping excursion to ABC home & Carpet, which is six or so huge floors of furniture and rug goodness (I could easily spend a full day there and we kind of did), lunched at Tacombi, and then we dropped by the offices of One Kings Lane for a tour. I wanted to back up a semi-truck to their prop closet and smuggle every last tchotchke across the Mississippi.

Favorite spots of the trip:
To Eat:
Tiny’s (first image) and the bar upstairs
Cafe Henrie (pink tables! Get the Dragon Bowl)
Sessante (the restaurant at our hotel Sixty Soho)
Ladurée (macaroooons! the courtyard in soho is gorge)
The Fat Radish
Tacombi (fish tacos! my fave location is the Nolita one)
Two Hands (brunch)
Grand Banks ( a boat turn oyster bar)
The Lucky Bee (instagram gold)
