Lincoln Center

On our last day in NYC, we headed to Lincoln Center so I could see the Lela Rose show! I was thrilled to be invited to attend. It was my first time inside to see a show! We had to quickly get there and back to the hotel because our flight was leaving at 2pm, but I'm really glad I made it out. Eric and I snapped a few quick photos outside, grabbed some breakfast at Starbucks and called it a successful trip to NYC! I went pretty comfortable this whole weekend. At least the sunshine was outside this day and I could wear heels. I decided to try something new with these striped pants from StyleMint. I was so inspired  by how Mary-Kate and Ashley styled them up, so I dressed them up a bit with a dark lip, studded heels and a blazer!


As Eric was snapping my picture, two other guys came up to take some shots and I didn't know what to do! Haha! But one of them was super nice and offered to take my picture with Eric, so we actually got one of the both of us! It was awesome traveling with him. I would have been lost that weekend without him helping with photos, handling our luggage through the subway and navigating everything. Plus he makes every situation 1000x more fun and was a hit with everyone we met. It's so nice having a more social boyfriend because sometimes I'm honestly not that social and he forces me to get out of my box. I love that about him.

You look so amazing! Those shoes are amazing. Oh man, I was just up in the city on Sunday - I was helping to pick up some students for work - and we picked them up near Lincoln Center. I saw the signs left over from Fashion Week and I seriously wanted to cry. It looked like you had so much fun!

Looks like a fun day and sounds like a great NYC trip. I'm impressed that Eric went to a fashion show with you! It would take a lot of coercing to get JP to go to a fashion show with me. lol.

I always felt really iffy seeing these pants on the StyleMint website, but you styled them really well! they actually look cute to me! maybe it has to do with the fact that you have a normal body, unlike the StyleMint models? I guess they should just hire you to model their clothes instead. ;)

You look gorgeous! Eric takes such good pics of you!

I LOOOVE those pants! So fun!

It's awesome that you've found a guy that compliments you so well! I'm not a very social person either, so I know it's great to have a few people in your life that kind of pull you away from that. :)

Those pants are so awesome! Your makeup looks really fantastic here, too. I love the dark lipstick!
Haha, I wouldn't know what to do if someone came up and started taking pictures while I was getting blog pictures, either! Although my husband isn't social, so we'd probably just both be really awkward about it.

Happy Monday!
