Spring Break in NYC

hi, let me reintroduce myself. i'm brittany and i have been missing in action! i have been so busy with traveling everywhere over spring break and then this week was my first week back at school so i'm getting back into the grove of things and i have been swamped with school work, but lets save that for another post. i thought i would share some pictures from my spring break trip to new york!

i went on the sex and the city bus tour, seeing as i am a sex and the city lover i knew i would love it! not going to lie... it was a little awkward going with my mom seeing as the first field trip we went on was to the pleasure chest where charlotte bought her first rabbit! but the tour ended at aiden and steves bar scout where we got to drink the signature cosmo! it was really interesting being able to be driven all around new york and see where things were filmed! we got to stop at where carrie and big had their rehearsal dinner for their wedding, the restaurant was absolutely gorgeous. i would suggest going on the tour if you are ever in new york and are a huge fan of the show (i think its a fairly reasonable price too)!

during a stop along the tour we stopped at magnolia bakers where carrie would always go for cupcakes and to be honest... i don't see why. they had to be the worst cupcakes i ever had! i'm not sure if any of you had gone but they really weren't that great... they tasted a little old to me. maybe we just got a bad batch but i don't think i would ever go there again for cupcakes.

also on the trip my best friend was in new york as well and we got to have tea at the plaza which was adorable! seeing as i'm such a child i got a eloise platter so it came with the most adorable child-like food and desserts. my pictures didn't turn out that well, not having auto focus on my new lens was my enemy but i decided to return the lens and buy the proper lens that goes with my camera. after tea i went to see the play chicago which was amazing! i'm always having and urge to watch the movie but going to see the play was 10 times better! we were about 6 rows back from the stage it was a blast. another night we went to the top of the rock and got to see the city at night which was an amazing view, i would definitely recommend doing that. after seeing the view of the city my best friend and i decided we wanted to go out for drinks, where else would we go besides.... the empire hotel!! a gossip girl fans dream. we sat on the rooftop lounge drinking gossip girl inspired drinks! the last day there my mom and i spend the day running around shopping, to be honest the only thing i left NYC with was a tinkerbell cup and a "thank you mood" tshirt from mood fabrics! the trip was a lot of fun but i don't think i'll be going back during the winter anytime soon.
