Nick and I spent all day Saturday exploring different touristy holiday destinations in the city. I know it's kinda lame since we do live here, but I just think it's so much fun sightseeing in my own home. Our first stop was Bryant Park to walk around the holiday shops and people-watch the ice skaters. Next we inched (yes - it was THAT crowded) our way up to Rockefeller Plaza to take a picture in front of the tree. We then headed up 5th Ave to St. Patrick's Cathedral and over to Bergdorfs to look at the holiday window displays. Seriously those windows are what my dreams are made of - swoooon. We ended our day at The Plaza with an amazing hot chocolate and my homegirl Eloise. Guys I also didn't realize there was a food hall in The Plaza... Definitely coming back for more foodie grub! Hope you all had a nice weekend!

Feeling Festive

I was wearing...

Christmas is inching closer and closer and I'm definitely feeling the holiday spirit. Last year at this time was definitely a tough period for me. I wasn't really sure how I felt about living in New York and I was unhappy. Thankfully those feelings have gone away and I'm at a point in my life where I'm genuinely happy and know that I made the right decision moving here *knock on wood* - I think that's why I'm feeling so festive :) 

Nick and I originally weren't planning on decorating our apartment since we're spending the actual Christmas holiday in Florida with my grandparents. But over Thanksgiving we both decided that it was important to have traditions so we actually went out and bought Christmas cards and a few new ornaments to decorate our little fake tree. I think this weekend we are going to go see the tree at Rockefeller Center and maybe do a few other fun festive things. If you have any suggestions for what we should do please let me know in the comments!

Party Time

I always love to bring out my hostess skills during the holidays when I head home to visit my family. Living in a small apartment I'm really limited in how I can entertain guests. Our apartment is tiny and it would honestly be impossible to have a party or even have another couple over for dinner. That being said though, my life in NYC makes me appreciate all the space I have when I head out of town so much more.

Over the Thanksgiving holiday I played hostess with my family and friends and we had the pleasure of trying the new Sauza® Sparkling Margarita. It comes in three different flavors but I went for the mango peach. I don't really enjoy champagne so this made for the perfect alternative - it's light and I'll take tequila any day over any other type of liquor :P
