Jamie-Lee

This past weekend I FINALLY had the pleasure of meeting one of my favorite blogger friends, jamie-lee of page sixxx and her awesome friend Mary! If you have never heard of her blog, shame on you! She is a 22 year old from New Zealand with AMAZING style, I wish I could steal her whole closet, so make sure to check it out! Anywayyy, she is on vacation in the US and I met up with her while she was in New York City for some shopping, walking, pictures and other fun stuffs! I was a bad blogger and only took one photo, ha ha. But Jamie may have some more...I'm not sure. If/when she posts I may steal some photos for this post :)
Update: Here's a shot of Mary and I :)
I gave myself a pretty big budget for shopping and unfortunately I found NOTHING! I almost bought a pair of Chanel shoes...but I was too lazy to try them on and the price was a bit steep, ha ha. But I did seriously consider the splurge. After shopping we went to have lunch (I had french toast, bacon and strawberries) and then we went to the Barney's Warehouse sale.  I found a Theyskins Theory dress but it unfortunately didn't fit me right, there was also a gorgeous YSL skirt but it was still $500. Here are some of the things I tried on/thought about buying, I couldn't find the Chanel shoes:
Rodarte, Theyskin's Theory, Urban Outfitters

After that we went to have some drinks (I had water...haha) and went to a rooftop BBQ at her friend's friend's place that was fun. We just sat around talking, there were 2 pretty cute boys there too (well 3, but one had a girlfriend). But then, like the party pooper I am, I left around 10:30 so I could get home at a reasonable hour (which was 1:15 because I had to wait for the 11:22 train).

I am so glad we finally got to meet, I've been following her blog for as long as I can remember so I felt like I already knew her. I love that part of blogging, we make such great friends from all over the world and, if we're lucky enough, we get to meet them at some point! [I just checked and I've been following since July 2010, haha...she started it at the end of June 2010]

[Since I didn't buy anything I decided to shop a bit on Sunday morning and got some Free People flared jeans at Marshalls! I also went to the mall on Monday and got 2 tops at Express, a Michael Kors tank top and Chanel Paradoxyl, I'm not counting that in my monthly spending since I was going to allow myself to spend money on Saturday and didn't]
Free People Jeans ($30), Express Top ($34), Michael Kors Top ($26), Express Top ($34)

  5. I've been wanting to do a blogger meet-up for the longest time! It's funny that we were so close to each other than one time in Lincoln Center for the HP 7.2 premier.

    It sounds like you guys had a lot of fun! How exciting that you almost bought a pair of Chanel shoes!

    Eternally yours,
    Stephanie

  13. Ohh you are such a cutie! Haha OMG we totally should have gone back to Saks ;) Glad to see that you went and splurged a little over the long weekend though, I know how annoying it is when you finally want to shop and just can't find anything at all. Next time I come to the USA I should come visit you in Milford (considering it really isn't that far away) OR you can come to NZ ;)

  23. Love your new striped shirt. I would love, love to have some Chanel shoes, but I couldn't splurge on them anytime soon. I did find a Chanel purse at a thrift store a few years ago for 20 dollars though.
