One of my favorite things to do in New York (or any city for that matter) is finding balconies, rooftops, porches, etc to perch up and visit in. To me, there really is nothing better. You get to see the city from a completely different standpoint and environment, and - sometimes - after a long day's work or fighting for your life on the New York City subways during peak hours, it really reminds you why you love the city so much.  Looking up you see a beautiful scape of skyscrapers and older "historied" buildings, all with the most beautiful architectural feel. And looking down you get a view of the New Yorkers and city visitors buzzing around. With Manhattan being so small, you will usually find some sort of views of the rivers, too. It is truly a favorite weekend activity and above is a favorite weekend outfit.

Some of my favorite rooftops, for good measure:
Gallow Green, Chelsea
230 5th, NoMad
Loopy Doopy, Battery Park
The Press Lounge, Hell's Kitchen
Top of the Strand
The Ides, Williamsburg, Brookyln

On my list for this spring:
Lounge at Pod 39
Upstairs

Sheltering Sky, Williamsburg, Brooklyn

Back in business. Back at it. Back in the game. Never left the game. 

Whatever you want to call it , I'm there. 

My last MMIS post was 11 months ago - so sad and so crazy (smh) and I've been missing it much.

I'm still the exact same 20-something in the pictures I look back at, however some noticeable things have changed...the main things: my hair has been chopped in half  & the site got a little facelift (new logo? hey 2015). The site also got an updated domain name: meetmeinstyle.com (you can still use meetmeinstyle.blospot.com, too). Also, there's some fresh new lens-geniuses in the MMIS photography world - Mand Made This photographed this post, my boy-who's-more-than-a-friend has taken a few shap-shots, as well as family and of course the original MMIS photographer - Kitty. All very exciting things on the way. 

My second go at Meet Me in Style feels really exciting and positive and thats mainly because of the support from my friends & family. Keep reading and coming back to the site everyday and I will do my part to make sure you have some really really fantastic fun fabulous festive things to look at.
