Today I am leaving for New York City for a long weekend getaway! I am heading there to attend two conferences and a brunch event,  but I am excited to eat at my favorite restaurants, stroll through central park and sit by the duck pond, shop till I drop up and down 5th avenue, and of course see my friends. As a former (and forever) New Yorker, I get a lot of questions on what places to go and things to see and do. I could probably write a month’s worth of posts on restaurants, bars, attractions, etc., but to save us both time, I tried to narrow down some note worthy places.

In the fall and winter I like to keep my wardrobe basic with neutrals. I am always roaming around during the day in either an all black attire or in a big white sweater with my favorite pair of leggings. As a collector of coats, this collarless cream coat is on my list of must have. I already own a collarless coat and love wearing it. I always get a ton of compliments on it. Another item that I want to add are these tall boots. Currently all of my tall boots are flats and would love to add a heel for a more dressed up look. This look is simple, yet looks put together.
