Another outfit I wore to New York City was this floral high-low maxi number. It is so dreamy and flowy and actually comfortable!! I was concerned at first that this dress would be not so comfy with the strapless top and the ruffle around the arm but it is actually fit very well. I usually struggle with some strapless dresses but this one fits perfectly. I’m wearing a size xxs and would size down if you have the same issue as me. There is elastic around the entire circumference of the arm band area too but it hangs lower on my arm and I barely notice it’s there. The flow of this dress is so gorgeous and when you walk it just flows so beautifully behind you. There are buttons along the bodice but they don’t actually come apart, they are just for show.
These photos were taken in Rockefeller Center- how about these gorgeous blooms?! There are so many beautiful blooms, especially hydrangeas throughout NYC! Just one of the many things I love about this city.

And now for my Friday Favorites!
New York City
This is one of my absolute favorite cities and was glad I got to go this week. Between the food, shopping, and shows, I don’t know which I love more!! This time around I got to eat at some old favorite restaurants as well as some new favorites too! Especially the little restaurant we ate at in Little Italy. It was SO delicious for such a quaint little dining room. I also enjoyed shopping at Saks Fifth Ave with my mom! Always a favorite place of ours to stop in! Would love to hear in the comments section what your favorite things to do in NYC are!
Anthropologie Candles
I finally found the most amazing scented candle EVER! It’s this Capri Blue candle in Aloha Orchid. It smells divine and being that it has notes of gardenia and jasmine- it reminds me of my trip to Charleston, SC where there was a sweet scent of jasmine here and there in the city. I love a good floral candle and when I find one like this I need to stock up! Definitely try this candle if you like floral scents- it’s just so amazing and only $14. If you are not a lover of floral scents I suggest Anthropologie candles in general because they are great quality and have so many great scents! You can check them out here.
The Bachelorette
I have been watching many of the Bachelor shows for years now and this season is really good! My top pick for Rachel is Peter and I’m so excited (and hopeful!) that we can see more of him this coming episode because well… I think he’s really cute!! I also have a feeling Bryan will be in the top 3 but he’s starting to rub me the wrong way and seems like a player- but we’ll see. Would love to know your top picks!
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale
I got the preview catalog for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and all I have to say is that the deals are really really good. I can’t wait and early access starts next week. If you are not familiar with the Nordstrom Anniversary sale it’s where a bunch of the newest (not even out yet anywhere else) items for Fall are put out in store and online on major sale. I have a tab for all the information you need to know along with tips for shopping!! See that post here.
There are my 4 favorites of the week and I hope all of you have a wonderful weekend! I start my new job Monday as well as go back to teaching dance as we were off for the week! Bear with me next week with my Instagram posts for the first day or two as I get acquainted with my new job!
