Central Park

The day my feet hurt like a bitch. Wish I could turn back time and chose to wear something more comfortable.. but I already had this outfit planned waaaayy long ago and not wearing those shoes would just ruin everything! The shoes were too gorgeous to pass but who knew they could hurt this bad?

What I Wore: Vise Versa coat, Capezio stockings, Mango bag, Forever21 shorts, top, and flats.


I swore off flat shoes after my experience on this day. I realized that the PAIN I get from wearing cheap flat shoes is worse than when I'm wearing cheap high heels. So whatever situation, I think I will just always go for the heels instead. For me, its either heels or rubbershoes. No other option. Haha!

Soo I didnt take much pictures on our last day so I will cram both days on this post instead. We visited Central Park (which was really painful for me to walk :'(), The American Museum of Natural History, and The MET. We also watched Lion King on broadway on the first night (which was SUPERB, btw!!!), and went shopping on the second.

We visited numerous museums on this trip that by the time we got to the MET, we were already tired out of wits thus having not much pictures taken there. I also really wanted to get my picture taken in front of the MET but it unfortunately rained that day. I wish I could have stayed longer in the MET but I was really just too tired already (plus I wanted to go shop) The art works in the museums we visited were amazing but next time I think I'd set a big gap between going to the museums since it gets boring easily.

A. Wang Knock Offs

Just a little commercial before I proceed with my vacation posts. (The outfits are getting sooo boring! I told you so!)

In the outfit are three of the items I scored while in the States. One is the plaid top which I bought in two other colors and is also part of my planned school "uniform", the black pumps from Charlotte Russe which I scored for such a great price!, and the most awesome knock-off bag from Wetseal...

What I Wore: Victoria's Secret plaid top, People are People jeans, Charlotte Russe black pumps, Wetseal bag.


The main focus of this outfit would be the bag though. I was in Orlando when I first spotted the bag. It was hanging waaaaayy up inside the store almost near the ceiling. When I saw it I was just like OMG!!! Its an Alexander Wang bag knock-off!! It was like love at first sight. When I got it from its rack, I just couldnt get my hands off it. So ofcourse, I took it home.

Got so much other goodies to wear out and I just cant wait to show it to you guys!! :)

What I Wore: People are People striped top, Mango jeans and bag, New Look boots.


As the days get by, the pictures lessen. I guess thats because I start to lose my enthusiasm in taking the photos. Plus, I get more and more tired each day. Well, thats a good thing right.. less bandwith for you to download... hahaha!

Matching striped tops with my sister!


So on this day we went on our Statue of Liberty trip!! To Staten Island and Ellis Island we go! The weather today was more manageable so we were able to just go around with our shirts although at some points it would get a wee bit cold again so I had to put the hoodie back on. The hoodie is one of the products designed by my batchmates for our Economics project. Pretty cool huh! It comes in different batch numbers (Class of 2010, Class of 2011, 2012, and so on..) and in four colors: blue, red, neon pink, and neon yellow. I got the blue cause its simple and easy to wear :)

Aside from downtown, we also visited Brooklyn (Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory!!!) and the Grand Central Terminal. What I like about New York is that (as what my dad said) the subways make places that are far away so much nearer. You can go from Uptown to Brooklyn in no time. Oh, I was also so starstruck to have been in the Grand Central Terminal! Gossip Girl!! Oohh, I could just marvel at its beauty. Really amazing!

How Sweet It Is?

Second day in New York. This is the day we saw most of the city. We visited Times Square which was really cool! Oprah was also having her event there when we arrived so we chanced upon her! Apart from touring the city, we also visited the Rockefeller Center wherein you can spot most of New York's hotspots from the top of the building such as the Empire State and Central Park. Other places we visited were the Museum of Modern Art, and we also stopped by the Flat Iron building and Union Square among other things.

Photobucket
What I Wore: Topshop leopard top, Vise Versa coat, Mango jeans and bag, New Balance rubbershoes.


So yes I had to wear rubbershoes (and you will see more of those rubbershoes later on) since it was all walk for us. New York was freezing cold on this day and I really froze to death in which I practically had to run back to our hotel at night since I couldnt take the cold anymore. As mentioned earlier, I thought it was going to be warm so I didnt have much coats or jackets with me. This coat is something I just wear to Tagaytay so you can imagine how cold I felt. At the end of the day though, I was still able to survive it all. Hihi.
