Trinity Place Department Store

I was invited by the good folks over at Trinity Place Department Store to come check out the store and some of the inventory. I made my way down to the financial district in New York City to check it out. I must say it didn't disappoint. It a wide open space beautifully decorated to show off the amazing one of a kind pieces that wont break your wallet.
 
Loved this sweater and skirt as well. I liked them even better worn together!
 I had to try on a few pieces and this sequin number was one of my favorites!
I ended up getting this skirt. I loved the heaviness to it and the pleats!
I fell in love with this jacket. Of course it was one of the things out of my price range but as soon as it goes on sale...hello new favorite coat!
Make sure to check out Trinity Place Department Store.
Huge thanks to the staff for showing me around and inviting me to experience the store! I had a blast.

My Life in Photos

this past week has been filled with shopping, frenchness and movies.
for those who may follow some of my tweets I met and kinda fell for a very handsome Frenchman. he has since gone back to Paris and broken my little American heart into a gazillion pieces but he has fueled my love for anything French (check out this video and this post of my apartment). Anywho, I've also seen some pretty great movies and done a hell of a lot of eating. 
 
Spring has arrived in Washington Heights
Great lasagna on a sunny day.
Stunning coat at Trinity Place Department Store in the financial district.
The best insight into an American life in Paris that I've ever read. I will be visiting for 2 weeks in September for Fashion Week and for pure fun!
Ryan Gosling is amazing.
Dining in Little Italy...love people watching
Finally wore my new wangs ;-)
Brunch at Café Gitane...this sandwich and watermelon juice were delish!
I would be scared shitless to work for Anna...
Celebrating my good friend Larsa's Bday with S'mores!
Great movie 42...and the lead actor...Hot!
 
Check out more by following me on INSTAGRAM! I'm off to do some vintage shopping at the Williamsburg Flea Market. I have my heart set on an oversized men's coat. I have no idea why.
