A glimpse of my week in New York via my instagrams (my username is simply “katiearmour” should you care to follow along…). Highlights included yummy dinners with friends in the village, the Maira Kalman exhibit at the Julie Saul Gallery, my ritual visit to John Derian’s brilliantly curated gem of a shop, a laughter filled lunch with the so-chic-it-kills-me Marissa Webb, perusing the used art books at the Strand, a viewing of Moonrise Kingdom, late night chats with my little brother and his adorable boyfriend, and so much more. My last morning I rose early and strolled up to the Met for the Prada/Schiaparelli exhibit. I don’t think anything beats a long walk, coffee in hand, watching the city wake up. Panting pups in the park, a bespectacled gentleman in a bow tie reading The Times, a curious fellow intensely power walking with his headphones…while smoking a cigar and drinking a Cherry Coke. Oh New York, you always pull me right back in.
Looks like a wonderful visit! Bookmarking this post for things to do next time I’m in the city :)
Katie – You have me so excited for NYC! We are going next weekend and I can’t wait!
Divine!
Your photos have charmed me; I’m now following you. In a completely non-stalkerish way, of course. :-)
Glad you had a great week. We just returned from there as well…… so much inspiration to be found in the city!
Lovely! Where did you buy that lovely tortoise shell pen?
Karen – It’s from the Met gift shop! :)
Wow – so inspirational! Thank you for a lovely start to summer! (BTW – what color polish is that? It’s gorgeous!)
Hi Katie! I just saw that you linked back to my Marissa Webb article, thank you so much! I absolutely adore your site and hope that all is well!
