Looking forward to..

This rooftop view in London!

The new shopping mall in the City is not only great for retail therapy- but also for food and amazing views. The One New Change building has been designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect, Jean Nouvel. The modernist building has 6,500 floor-to-ceiling glass panes in varying shades of red, grey and beige, flooding the floors with natural light. 4,300 of which are unique pieces. It's open everyday from 7AM till late..I am definitely looking forwards to many meeting up on the terrace!

Snow in NY (and ode to Ferragamo shoes)

After a delicious dinner at the HCNY, I went back to Chelsea where my friends apartment is. I fell asleep immediately after reaching their place, tired, full and with a bit of chill from the walk back.
This morning I woke up at 5:30 (ok, ok, I am jet lagged) to find NY covered in snow. The view from the apartment was beautiful, but I was dreading going outside eithout appropriate shoes.
I had a breakfast appointment at Balthazar and had a bit of walking to SOHO..what to do?

I ventured out, with my 5 inch heels and no socks. The snow was already turning into slush and I was fearing for the worst. My feet stayed dry all the way to Spring street (where I walked into a puddle) and I started believing in the divinity of Salvatore Ferragamo. Who else can design a shoe that looks beautiful, feels great and keeps you dry in the snow???

After all the walking, Balthazar felt like a warm blanket on a cold night..I had Eggs Benedict with home fries. The best eggs benedict I ever had (but don't tell Mr.R)!
