L.I.C.

The race to find a new apartment is on! I only have 6 days until I have to move out of my current sublet so I'm getting a little frantic about finding a new housing arrangement. I probably should've settled on something weeks ago, but I've discovered I'm a very picky house hunter...

One of the places I would *love* to live is Long Island City. The BF and I visited the other weekend and took 10000 pictures of the view - it is incredible. We also had a delicious brunch with never ending mimosas which definitely helped us have an amazing time! I hope this post isn't too picture-heavy, I am kind of obsessed with the New York skyline!

And.... without further ado, the winner of the $100 Shopbop gift card is Lin of Raw by Yours! Congrats Lin! Be sure to come back and let me know what you buy!

The BF and I stumbled upon the Cathedral of St. John the Divine by Columbia University this weekend while looking for a place to eat our Hungarian pastries (so good!). In a garden next to the cathedral was the statue pictured below, the Peace Fountain. The Peace Fountain celebrates the triumph of Good over Evil, and "sets before us the world's opposing forces—violence and harmony, light and darkness, life and death—which God reconciles in his peace." I thought this was a good message, especially today.

I know you all read about my experience at the Alexander Wang sample sale last month, and I feel like that only made my love for AWang grow even more! One of the main reasons I love Shopbop so much is because of their selection of Alexander Wang - they sell T by Alexander Wang, Alexander Wang dresses, and they even have an amazing Alexander Wang sale section.
