Weekend Wonders (Visitors Edition)

Yay for long weekends!  A weekend that starts with a dentist appointment is never fun, except if you can hardly remember said dentist by the end.  We had a fabulous long weekend with lots of good food, great company and relaxation.  My sister and her boyfriend came down to visit Saturday evening, and we started things off with dinner.  Sunday was shop 'til you drop for Lauren, Mike, and I while Zack caught some much need rest at our apartment.  Lauren bought not 1 but 3 pairs of jeans at Diesel, which is a miracle.  We have been jean shopping with her for about 2 years now, and have yet to find a pair she was happy with until this Sunday.  She also bought a dress and a pair of shoes at our favorite consignment shop...Fendi and Prada respectively.  Needless to say she was thrilled with our finds.  We ended their visit with a trip to Bare Burger, which was outstanding as usual.

Monday Mike and I ventured downtown and proceeded to break our shopping ban.  Huh, it's so hard to have self control when you run into a DVF cashmere sweater dress for $40 (me) or a Comme des Garcons wool overcoat for $300 (Mike.)  Oh well, saving money is over-rated anyway!  We are going to try harder, but I can't make any promises!  After stopping off for a cookie and coffee at Birdbath (my favorite NYC bakery) we headed off the the grocery store.  That's where the last pic comes in.  Zep knew that there was a rotisserie chicken in one of the those bags with his name on it!!  Back to the grind today...but 4 day weeks aren't so bad.

A little winter inspiration...even though we are nearing the end of February it is still chilly;  I like to look for fun ways to layer while it is cold because soon enough I won't be able to stand anything more than a lightweight tee.  Joanna is so great at layering.  I absolutely love her style!  If you want to see more of her amazing layering skills check this out.  The six looks from J. Crew are obviously pre-holiday, but look number 3 struck me as something I would like to try, plus the bright colors and perfect red lips always put me in a good mood.  Happy long weekend!
