Just some of the many delightful goodies I spotted at the Brooklyn Flea last weekend in Fort Greene.

Bryant Park
One thing that is so great about working in the city is I get to walk through Bryant Park everyday. Here is the delightful bit of scenery I captured on Monday morning. Looks like Spring is finally here!
Another great benefit to working in Bryant Park is the access to fashion. Today, there was a Michael Kors sample sale in our office building, so naturally my co-worker and I had to take an early morning "break." We arrived to the Michael Kors office conveniently located on the 20th floor (we're on 15), and walked down a museum-like hall full of gorgeous leather bags on display. The last room to the left was where the chaos ensued. Stacked heels, leather boots, and handbags strewn about everywhere and large cardboard boxes full to the brim of mostly size 6 stilettos and wedges. Girls were toting around 4-5 pairs of shoes close to their chest and one lady even had a box full of heels which I thought was part of the sale (nope, all 20 were hers!) It was power shopping madness and I loved experiencing every minute of it. But surprisingly, I did not buy a thing. Mainly because everything was picked over; no trusty MK clutches, heels or leather hangbags for me :( Perhaps I will find something at the next sale, which by the way, is next week at Elie Tahari on the 14th floor! Marking the calendars this time...

Easter in the City
4.4.2010
Easter Sunday was lovely this year. The sun was shining and it was a warm 70-75 degrees outside. All the trees were starting to flower and it was such a beautiful sight to see against all the grey concrete and brownstone. We spent the day strolling around our neighborhood and then took a train into the city, where we continued our leisurely walk around the cobbled streets of Soho - one of my favorite things to do. Paid our respects at the Old Saint Patrick's Cathedral (est 1809), ate a simple but tasty lunch at Whole Foods on Bowery, and did some good old fashion window shopping. We finished off the day with a nice bike ride through Park Slope, and a stop over at our friends' place, David & Alicia. All in all, an ideal Easter holiday. Looking forward to more of this Springtime weather ;)

Florida
Hello! Just a few snaps to share from my recent trip down to Florida in March. It was a short visit, but sweet. Got to see the parents and enjoy some good old fashioned Thai Delight cooking.
