Mom surprised Becca and me with a trip to NYC yesterday! We dropped Becca off at her friend's house in Park Slope, where we used to live, and Mom and I took the train into Manhattan. Mom let me shop for back to school clothes and we had Red Mango. It was fun to be back in NYC!
I stopped at the PINK store in SoHo and got some cute PJs and, bonus, the store was giving away PINK stuffed dogs. I had two already and now, I've got the cutest purple one. It's standing next to my laptop. :)
I hit up Forever 21, H&M and Macy's. I heart Macy's because there's a Starbucks inside so I can get my tea fix and shop at the same time. Plus, Macy's has it's original escalators--they're wooden and tres chic. I love riding them.
After I got my clothes, we met Becca and shopped for her. Becca got to stop at her fave candy store and she stocked up on her obsession--Japanese candy. Becs got me addicted to it last summer, so I bought some, too. Have you ever had any? It's so good!
Gotta run for Sunday night dinner! We're eating late tonight because Dad was on a deadline for his next book.
How was everyone's weekend?
Awesome Laur! I had a great weekend. we went to dallas for my sis's birthday and then hung out at my grandparents, watched TV on their HUGE flat-screen TV. on Sunday i went to a guide dog meeting. If you have never been 2 one, find a puppy raising group near you, and find out when their next meet is. then go! it is amazing to watch the dogs. tell me (anybody) if you found anything! (About the guide dogs.)
ReplyDeletesuper cool! i <3 macys too, although the one near my house is pathetic. My weekend was AWESOME because my friends and I got our nails done (I chose a pinkish reddish color) and then we went shopping at Icing and i got some supersoft socks, a scarf and GUM (i am addicted to that stuff) When does your school start? mine starts Aug. 24 (tomorrow).
ReplyDeleteOn my weekend I rode my fave horse ever. His name is Remi and he is a chesnut quarter horse with 2 white socks on his back legs. My sis was riding too. She rides a liver chesnut/ black morgan named Pelia. We did a new jump corse. it was AWESOME!

ReplyDeleteI headed to Outer Banks, North Carolina for vacation with my whole family and cousins and everyone. It was really fun boogie boarding, surfing, kayaking, swimming in our pool, and hanging out with my cousins - until we had to evacuate because of the hurricane! I HATE HURRICANE IRENE! Anyways, good luck to everyone at school!
