New York - Part One!!

So incase you missed it, my mum and I recently returned home from 18 days in New York City. We headed over, mainly for the US Open tennis, but we also did a few touristy things and A LOT of shopping!

Part One of the NYC recap is going to focus on the shopping!

And boy, did we shop!

The second day we were in NYC, we headed out to the Woodbury Common Outlets. Now I'd been to a stack of outlets the last time I was in the US, but wooooooooow, these are out of this world! They're massive! So many stores, everything from Salvatore Ferragamo to Calvin Klein to DKNY to Burberry, the list doesn't end!!

Mum and I arrived at 10am and left at 7pm-ish... Many bags in hand!

Some of my favourite purchases from the Woodbury Commons are:

My new coach handbag:


A Tommy Hilfiger dress:


and an Elie Tahari top:


I also grabbed a couple of shirts from Calvin Klein, among a few other things.

We timed our trip really well, because we were there for the Labor Day long weekend, which meant there were some crazy sales going on.

As an example, I picked up a Banana Republic dress over the long weekend sales for $18. Yes, $18. I had seen the dress a few days earlier and it was $47... Needless to say, I'm glad I passed on it two days earlier!!

Other sale items I picked up were:

3 x Armani Exchange dresses (one of which is pictured below)


A pair of shorts from Gap and a blouse from Banana Republic, which I teamed together to wear to Fashion's Night Out. (I will do a separate post on that!)

A pair of Coach wedges:


and a pair of Coach ballet flats:


But quite possibly, my favourite purchase would be the Tiffany's sunglasses I bought!! They just happen to be my first Tiffany's purchase too!


I also grabbed a haul from M.A.C and Sephora.

As you can tell, I definitely shopped up a storm! That empty duffle bag i packed into my suitcase on the way over definitely came in handy!!

Part Two and Three of the recap to come soon!
