My Life As Of Lately… NYC

Having a best friend that lives in NYC is truly a blessing. I love that I was able to jet off for a quick weekend trip for some girl time in my favorite city.  We did a few touristy things such as the 911 memorial (breathtaking), Central Park (always a must), food carts, taxi cabs, and subways.
We also shared WAY too many laughs, make-up and clothes, and exchanged stories and secrets.  It was an unforgettable weekend and I can’t wait for my next visit. 

 
 
We stayed in an apartment in the Upper West Side using the website Air Bed & Breakfast, which is essentially a website where people rent out their apartments for the weekend or week for an extremely affordable price.  We paid $56 a person for 3 days and 2 nights, and if you know New York hotel prices, you know that is an insane deal (if we stayed in a hotel it would be an upwards of $500 or more a night).  I will definitely be using the website for future trips.
Oh, and this isn’t a NYC update, but I got bangs!  I haven’t had them since I was in middle school so I was really nervous but my hair stylist is amazing and knew exactly what I wanted!

    OK first off, you bangs look great! I wish I could pull them off. Second, I am so jealous, NYC sounds amazing right about now. I have always wondered about using some sort of sight like this. I'll have to check it out.

    A few things: a) the first picture just wouldn't be the same without that man's face in it. b) Where are those adorable name bracelets from?! c) I have never been to NY & am dying to go. I've never heard of Air Bed & Breakfast but sounds like an amazing deal! Staying at someone else's apartment? Def wouldn't have trusted it unless you said so. I'll have to remember that. d) I LOVE the bangs. I have been wanting to get bangs for so long but keep chickening out.
