I fall deeper in love with NYC every time I step out the front door. There’s always so much to do, be it shopping, eating, aimless meandering, or all of the above. Last week, the boyfriend came to visit and it was the perfect time to check out some notable sights, but also to explore more hidden gems. Here’s a collection of my most recent NYC adventures via Instagram.
Hanging out in DUMBO.
Foodies’ paradise at the NYC Wine & Food Festival (top) and Smorgasberg (bottom).
Picking up my first NYC visitor at Grand Central!
Sweets and drinks — a common theme in my life.
Found a tranquil area in Central Park a few weeks ago with Jess and Tracy.
A ring of American flags at the base of the Washington Monument.
Flowers from the Botanic Gardens and sweets from around the District.
Wedding celebrations on a boat. Congrats Melissa and Joel!
Weekend drinking. Some classier than others (esp. the shots from a squeeze bottle!).
Cruising down the Potomac River with a gorgeous view of the monuments at night.
Had to take my laptop in to the Apple Store, so I took it to the coolest one in NYC!
An afternoon sweet fix with bite-sized cupcakes at Baked by Melissa.
A glimpse of Fashion’s Night Out — which doesn’t depict how insane it was!
