One week later, I’m finally ready to wear heels again, the extreme bloating from Cuban food/rose/halal cart/bagels/more rose/the BEST DINNER EVER at Bell Book & Candle/vodka sodas/late night pizza/mimosamimosamimosas has gone down, and I’m safely above water on the work front.
Totally. Worth. It.
I am so very sad it’s over.
I am finally posting my pictures from last weekend! Three things I’d like to call out:
1. I should have taken many, many more photos, and preferably with a real camera.
2. It was three thousand degrees and nine million percent humidity – so I have a whopping two pictures that I allowed myself in and only one with Shai, which is particularly sad.
3. If you’re looking for a real peak into NYFW, I’m going to point you over to DrunkOnShoes just as soooon as she gets her pictures up. She’ll do it much more justice. She really experienced NYFW as you’d imagine it – the shows, the celebs, etc.
So enjoy, in no particular order. Click to enlarge!

I’m pretty sure I ate at Cafe Habana when I was in NYC to see my brother in March! Too funny.
Size of a large closet on a busy corner in Soho? If so – that’s it! 🙂 So goooooooood.
OK, so maybe it wasn’t Cafe Habana haha…
essex is the BEST!!!!!!!!!!! that’s my old hood! looks like you had a great time!
That is so cool!! I wish I had time to check out the food market that it was connected to – we were sitting upstairs and I was peeking through the window 🙂 My next trip back will definitely include a stop there!
that’s new to me – a food market?! i’ll have to stop in!
Cafe Habana was on our list when we were last in NYC and we didn’t make it there. Was it as fantastico as I’ve heard?!?
Looks like you had a great trip!
Oh my gosh, totally worth it. I will definitely be going back! The elotes was out of this world.
