State of Mind

So its Raining...non stop.

How many times have I heard you say, "but im never home", well now is the time to be home, in your space, relaxing, having people over and just giving this weather the middle finger!

Here are some things I am going to do this weekend:

Have a movie marathon
Clean out my closet (s)
Put in a dimmer (yes im handy)
Start a new book
Play with Benny
Dinner with friends
Sleep...but not too much that people start to question
Just be

Don't let this rain change your state of mind, stay home and be productive or get out there- you won't melt!

Date Night

Date night last night at this old school italian joint Filli Ponte and then an after dinner drink at Locande Verde...Dinero's new place, loved both! It was the perfect balance, Filli Ponte is very quiet and great for playing catching up and Locande Verde loud and bustling. On our way to the restaurant, we saw our fav car!  Some pics from the night and of course, my outfit. XO

Outfit: Elizabeth & James play suit, Zara motorcycle jacket, Sigerson Morrison gladiators and Top Shop earings...

Filli Ponte, 39 Debrosses @ West St.

Locande Verde, 399 Greenwhich@ N. Moore

Emporio

Two nights ago our friend Andy popped into NYC. Andy always has his finger on the NYC restaurant scene ( he is also a chef) and introduced us to a new restaurant, Emporio ( i think its been open a few months). A dimly lit, bustling Roman trattoria style restaurant. The food was delicious and just the way I like to eat, alot of smaller things to share. We had the fried artichokes, salumi plate, fennel and lima bean salad, hamachi tuna and a pizza, all paired with a Montepuliciano, Fattoria La Valentina. I would highly reccomend this place for both date nights, (they have a very intimate bar)or for groups. Typical of Riccardo Buitoni ( he also owns Aurora in Brooklyn & Soho) the back room has a large greenhouse feeling to it and is perfect for larger parties! Enjoy and check it out.

Emporio, 231 Mott St, between Spring and Prince

Oh, and they have a liquor license...its no longer a BYOB!

Red, White & Navy

So, I have decided to share my outfit from last night because i received the shirt in the mail and just loved it!

My new Dior vintage knit top with my radcliff high waisted straight leg jeans, shoes are white & navy basket weave vintage Gucci's.

Nature...

Here are some shots i took this weekend of the eastern long island landscape...simply beautiful.
