Peach n' Navy

Saw this Success Story dress on Destined to Design and fell in love. Isn't is cute?

I'd Read This

This Italian children's book has the cutest cover.

All That Jazz

I figured I should post something New York-ish while you wait for an official write up from me (not sure when that's coming.... but it is, I promise). In the meantime, I hope you enjoy these Sartorialist pics from a Jazz-Age Party on Governor's Island in NYC. 

In case you didn't know (I didn't, until last week), Governor's Island is this vacant island in New York. Yep, vacant. No one lives there. It used to be military but now it sits empty (except on weekends, when it is open to the public to come walk, run, bike and apparently, dance). 

Tie Dye and Nom Nom Nom

I was settled on the idea of a cupcake tower... until I saw this cake. nom nom nom.

Wet Wedding

I may be in NYC, but the #WeddingWednesday fun doesn't stop (thank you Blogger, for allowing me to schedule posts). I've said before how much I want to get my wedding dress wet (you only wear it once! have fun!) and this is a nice solution to the 'no pool/lake/fountain/water slide nearby' issue.

I (heart) NYC

Okay, I'm not sure if I love New York yet.... but I leave tomorrow for a whole week in the big apple! Things will be slow, if not nonexistent, here on the blog but no worries- I'll be back!

On the agenda:

Tuesday: land in NYC around 10pm, try to find a cab to take me to Amanda's place at Columbia University

Wednesday: lunch with Amanda and Promises, Promises on Broadway!

Thursday: completely open (aka, me wandering the city confused.)

Friday: check out of casa de Klohmann and into the hotel. Kristin gets there that night and we are going to the top of the Empire State Building- Sleepless in Seattle style!

Saturday: Early morning trip to the Statue of Liberty and sight-seeing. 

Sunday: MTV day. 

Monday: back to STL

I've still got a ton of packing, laundry, shopping, and errands to run before I leave... but I'm psyched!
