Apple of My Eye

So loved my whirlwind trip to NYC filled with lots of hard work as well as ample time to visit some favorite shopping spots, sample some yummy foods and get a glimpse of the fashion world from afar with a quick visit to Lincoln Center as they showcased the Fall 2012 runway shows.    Below are just a few of my favorite highlights...

One fun night in Lincoln Center which is the command center of Mercedes Benz Fall 2012 Fashion week - Such a lovely vibe!

While I didn't attend any of the shows, I was lucky enough to join some friends at "Barbie the Dream Closet" event... Oh yeah, she really does have it all including a pair of GIANT glittering pink doors that welcomed us into the festivities.

Spent the later part of that night at an amazing roof deck lounge called 230 Fifth in Midtown... It was FREEZING and ready to snow so they gave us red "snuggies" to wear outside along with wall to wall heaters.  Their hot rum and cider was every one's drink of choice that night.

I have been working in the city over Valentine's Day for many years... The windows at Macy's are always a highlight!

Had a fantastic dinner one night at Quality Meats, but I could have seriously skipped the entree and gone straight to their homemade ice cream desserts... Mint Cookie is a MUST!

I have a couple tried and true favorite spots for a quick slice that I believe I ate every day (thank you very much!)... But next time I'm going to consult with some experts at idreamofpizza.com for additional recommendations for the perfect fresh margarita craving!  I am missing this most being back home in LA :)

It's no secret... This is still the place to be (with reservations made a month in advance!) it was a perfect Girl's Night Out and an end to a great week!
