Peplum in Paradise

I hope you all are enjoying your weekend! I have to say, mine has been quite fantastic...and half of the reason has to be the weather. It has been absolutely gorgeous here in NYC. If it were about 10-15 degrees warmer it would be perfect! HELLO SPRINGTIME!

Yesterday we went for brunch in Williamsburg, Brooklyn where I had the most amazing French toast (probably the best of my life!). If you are ever in the area stop by Walter Foods and try the stuffed French toast...you can thank me later.  :-)

This morning we opted to wander around Central Park (which is where these photos are from). I have to say, living on the Upper East Side isn't my favorite neighborhood...but living within walking distance to the park makes it all worth it! We love wandering around Central Park when the weather is nice. My dog loves it too! All we have to say is, "Rocko, do you want to go to the park?" and he runs to get his harness on. Silly guy!

After living in NYC for countless years and going to Central Park more times than I can count, it's really amazing that every time I go there I wander upon a spot that is new to me. It really is quite refreshing.

Albion Fit Go Long Crew + Giveaway

As many of you are aware, I'm not a very sporty kind of gal. I wear jeans time to time, save my yoga pants for bedtime, and do not belong to a gym. Even though I tend to dress up 90% off the time, I like to do so comfortably. Albion Fit, a leader of women's fitness and swimwear, sent over this crew for me to check out and it has become an instant favorite of mine. It is so unbelievably soft and cozy! This top has a great deal of stretch to it, and the light weight material is perfect for cool springtime weather. Although Albion Fit is known for their workout clothing, I like to venture outside the box and try something different with their activewear...like pairing this top with hot pink tights. Nothing wrong with that...right???

Rocking Color Blocking

Such a fun filled weekend I have going on right now! This morning I got to go out to brunch with two of my favorite girls, Kristen & Tara. We ate some amazing food and had too many margaritas (I'm sure some of you saw the photos on Instagram).

With my belly full and tequila running through my veins I thought it would be fun to walk with my husband and pup through Central Park today...even though it was beyond cold outside. Bright idea? Maybe not. But when the wind wan't blowing it was actually quite lovely.

Tonight we're planning to stay in. My husband is going to try his hand at replicating Momofuku's fried chicken recipe again. Last time he made it I have to say it was pretty much a dead ringer for the real thing. I'm already salivating just thinking about dinner! Yum!

I'm super excited for tomorrow. My husband is taking me to see Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike on Broadway! It's starring Sigourney Weaver and David Hyde Pierce (we are obsessed with the show Frasier!!!). Needless to say, I cannot wait! Plus it's been forever since we've seen a show...so it should be a blast!

I have to say, I absolutely adore this dress. I have worn it number of times on this blog in the past (here and here). But of all the times that I have ever worn it, this was the first time I decided to be bold and wear it with some super bright tights! Hey, it's spring after all! Time to break out some color. Don't you agree???

What are your weekend plans? Anything fun and exciting??? Hopefully the weather isn't too cold by you and you can get out there and enjoy it!

P.S. So I just noticed that my dress got a little caught up in my coat and you can totally see the lining...argh!
