Christmas in New York- Christmas Trees 🎄
This Christmas -and the whole December really- has been a complete blur. Happy I got a chance to walk around and enjoy the beautiful 🎄🎄 all around. Here are my favorites…
Saw this beauty at Tiffany’s.
Bryant Park’s 🎄.
The beautiful and classic Rockefeller Center 🎄.
Henri Bendel wins for most creative tree in my book 😂. The tree is made of all different kinds of gift boxes.
This is the beautiful tree at the New York Junior League.
Another classic but one of my favorites, the 🎄 at the MET Museum 😇.
Merry Christmas 🎄
To those who celebrate…
From my family to yours ❤️
Christmas in New York – Store Window Displays
I love this time of year. I especially love walking around and enjoying the decorations and windows. This year seems to be the year of the robot. They were everywhere! 🤖🤖🤖
My first stop, Macy’s.
Second, Tiffany 💍.
My first time inside Henri Bendel! That is quite an impressive tree 😂. Too bad they are closing 😞.
Lastly, my absolute favorite, Bergdorf Goodman. I particularly like the fact that they played with the idea of using sweets in their displays this year with a gingerbread man window and bakery/cafe window.
Grateful
So grateful for all the blessings I have. These few weeks showed me, more than most, how truly lucky I am. So thankful that I am surrounded by amazing family and friends. Wishing you and yours a Happy Thanksgiving.
Macy’s Annual Flower Show
I look forward to the flower show each year. It always makes me think of spring. The beautiful flowers are a tease of what is to come and a reminder of what I will never ever accomplish in my own garden and I’m ok with that :).
This year’s theme was ‘Once Upon A Springtime’ and it definitely had the fairytale look down with a storybook entrance, dragon and villain throne lol. I especially loved the detail on the throne and overall loved the lovely flowers. Here were my favs.
Exploring The Met Museum with Mom and Andrew
In February, I was lucky enough to visit the museum twice, once with my Mom and another time, on Valentine’s Day <3, with Andrew.
Mom and I focused on seeing the exhibits that were closing. I especially wanted her to see the Michelangelo one because she is quite religious. Here are my favorite shots (one not of the exhibit!).
We also got to see the Rodin exhibit, which was displayed in a single corridor. These sculptures were amazing. Mom and I spent the most time here, taking in all the beauty and laughing at some of the more interesting ones. Here are our favs!
Our last stop was the Japanese Bamboo exhibit and the Chinese Courtyard. They had one huge bamboo sculpture, which I believe was specifically made for the room, but I could be wrong. It was pretty interesting. It reminded me of the bamboo exhibit many years ago on the rooftop. That was one of my favorite rooftop exhibits at The Met. Mom LOVED the Chinese Courtyard; I took a lot of solo shots of her in here.
On Valentine’s Day, Andrew and I got to explore the museum after hours. It was pretty cool, less of a crowd and they had curators in various locations to give you more information. The whole museum wasn’t open, only certain sections but we still got to enjoy the beautiful paintings at the Thomas Cole exhibit, the Frank Lloyd Wright room in the American Wing and our favorite, Temple of Dendur. It’s usually crowded in the room, so it was pretty sweet that we got to see it so up close and personal. Andrew and I ended our night of exploring in the Dining Room at The Met where we had a very romantic dinner =).
