Saturday, SoHo & Street-fairs

So I'm back from my trip to Birmingham. I had such a nice time and was upset to come back to reality, so I decided to take an uplifting trip into the city today for some shopping in SoHo. To my surprise, along the way I stumbled across the cutest little street fair! Various vendors lined up along Broadway selling food and other goodies while music played for everyone to enjoy. There was everything from lemonade, to henna tattoos, fresh fruit smoothies, and fried oreos! I spent a better part of the day checking out each little booth and ogling at all the fun jewelry, carefully picking out my favorites and making {many} purchases. I walked away with a nice bundle of goodies and am so excited that this day turned out to be so thrilling! I can always count on my city to never disappoint me. Thanks New York, I feel right at home again.

Roadtrip: Hamptons!

This past Thursday, my good friends Priscilla, Samantha and I got to go away on a mini vacation.  We roadtripped out to the Hamptons to celebrate Sam's birthday!  It was the perfect little getaway weekend that we all definitely needed.  On Friday we spent the day at the Atlantis Marine World Aquarium where we got to watch the cutest performance by Bunker the Sea Lion, hold some starfish, and get a beautiful view of the whole park while riding the sky weel.

The rest of the weekend was a bit more relaxed, which I couldn't have enjoyed more if I tried.  All day we lounged by the pool listening to the ultimate 90's playlist and eating popsicles, and as the sun went down we settled in to cook ourselves dinner and watch some classic movies that we all love.  On our last day we took a trip into town and walked around the quaint little shops that line Main Street.  And of course we squeezed in some more time in the sun before it was time for us to head back home.  I really had such a fun time!  It was a complete girls weekend, something I'll never get too old for.  We definitely made lots of good memories and enjoyed each other's company.  Unfortunately the only pictures we took were at the aquarium, but it's okay because some of them are really funny!  Check them out :)
