Manhattan Financial District travel guide

For New York Fashion Week and over the Family Day long weekend, my boyfriend and I stayed in FiDi. I wanted to write this Manhattan Financial District travel guide to share some of the cute places we visited, as well as some of the area's top spots. financial district new york (1 of 10) financial district new york (2 of 10) Of course, Wall Street is a huge draw for tourists. We went on a Saturday to catch empty streets perfect for photos, but it was definitely more bustling when I came in on Thursday. Snapping pictures in front of the NYSE is a must as well. financial district new york (8 of 10) I'm wearing a romper from Zara (similar dress here), Mackage wool coat, cashmere hat from Kit & Ace (similar hat here), boots c/o La Canadienne and my Alexander Wang Prisma backpack.

Pretty in Pink at NYFW

[caption id="attachment_10421" align="aligncenter" width="800"]zara pink coat Photo by Jorge - Jorag Photo[/caption] I wore this pink coat and grey hat combo on the first day of New York Fashion Week. Last Thursday, it was still slightly warm, so that I could wear my coat open, no Ultra Light Down, and skip a scarf too! My turtleneck sweater kept me warm as the winds picked up, meanwhile it was a constant struggle from having my hat fly off and get blown down 33rd street. pink coat and grey hat (4 of 5) pink coat and grey hat (5 of 5) I was so excited to attend NYFW this season, and while I was tempted to wear something daring and outrageous, I wanted to stick to a classic look in my favourite soft, pastel tones. This look is all about my pink coat, and from watching other attendees, NYFW in February is all about outerwear, which I found so inspiring! In winter, our coats and jackets are one of the only ways we get to express our style, so seeing fabulous fur, shearling jackets and architectural wool coats was a definite style inspiration for me. I'm wearing a faux fur pink wool coat from Zara (similar pink coat here), grey turtleneck from Old Navy, zipper leggings from Zara (similar leggings here), over the knee suede boots from Zara (similar suede boots here), a grey wool hat from Winners (similar here) and my Alexander Wang prisma backpack with a pink faux fur pompom.

Playa del Carmen

Reading week is right around the corner, so I wanted to share another post from my Mexican getaway to Playa del Carmen. While shopping in the city, I wore a fun Mexican print dress to match the colourful, ecclectic surroundings. Just like Playa del Carmen's recent development, this dress blends a traditional print with a modern silhouette and fabric. The cotton midi dress was super comfortable (and kept me cool) for exploring, but I added a pair of suede booties for dinner and drinks after. playa del carmen (3 of 12) I'm wearing a Mexican print dress from H&M (similar printed dress here), oversized sunglasses from Urban Outfitters, a leather bag from Mexico (similar bag here), and gladiators from Athens (similar sandals here).[show_shopthepost_widget id="1391360"]
