The Big Apple means serious fashion choices<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I am going to New York City for the weekend on a Girls Trip!<\/p>\n

(You can\u2019t see me, but, I am dancing in my seat as I type!)<\/p>\n

YIPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!<\/p>\n

It is a wonder that I have a minute to craft this article being that it is Thursday night and I have nothing ready and my train leaves tomorrow morning!!!<\/p>\n

Going to visit the Big Apple requires IMMENSE preparations. \u00a0Are you surprised?<\/p>\n

I pack with the presence of mind that I will be walking around in the fashion capital of the world; not to mention that I could, at any moment, come face to face with Justin Timberlake or someone like that. No self-respecting fashionista can risk that encounter in anything less than the best outfit!<\/p>\n

The look I am going for is casual, yet, chic\u2026.NEVER tourist-y. \u00a0The shoes must be comfortable but NOT TOO COMFORTABLE!\u00a0 I would drag around bloody little stumps before I would EVER put on sneakers. It is the perfect season for a nice flat riding boot.<\/p>\n

I will wear a skinny corduroy for day with a blouse, cardigan and fur vest for warmth. I will carry a cross body bag for hands free shopping (my husband is THRILLED that my purse selection will not encumber my ability to spend his money. He was worried about that!)<\/p>\n

My nails are perfection with my Shellac manicure in a new color called \u201cFedora\u201d( which is a lovely black cherry color).<\/p>\n

I did not have time to do my roots. This is a problem that might keep me up tonight. Thankfully, the forecast is sunny and crisp so that I don\u2019t have to worry about a frizzy mop of hair on top of the scattering of gray at my part.<\/p>\n

For our Friday evening dinner (at only the swankiest of swanky dining establishments) and dancing at a hip and happening club afterwards, I have half of my wardrobe shoved in a duffle bag.\u00a0 NOT KIDDING.<\/p>\n

Dressing to go out on the town in New York City is vastly different from the selection I would make for dinner in Unionville. \u00a0This is an understatement. As I stand in my closet and survey my options, I feel woefully unprepared. It\u2019s a good thing that I will have a few thousand shops to peruse!!!<\/p>\n

As much as I adore getting away for a fun filled weekend of the bright lights and hustle and bustle of the city, I love to come home to the peaceful star filled nights that I relish in good ol\u2019 Chester County!<\/p>\n

Happy Sunday!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
