reversecommuter snuck away to NYC for the weekend – it was fun but FREEZING COLD!
I had to figure out a plan of survival based on the wet snow on Saturday and the wind on Sunday – lots of time in shops to keep warm and dry…
Bergdorf’s – going up!
Bergdorf Goodman is celebrating 60 years of fashion friendship with Dior, which includes a complete renovation of the 2nd floor boutique – GORGEOUSNESS!!!!!!!! (which sadly could not be photographed.
SOHO is my fave (click here to see more) and this time I even stayed down there at the Mondrian SOHO (click the blue to take a look). Similar to the Delano in Miami (click the blue to see when reversecommuter was at the Delano) both are part of the Morgan’s Hotel Group portfolio) the furniture has a certain Alice in Wonderland effect and the electric blue that flows throughout the lobby, bar and rooms has an instantaneous HAPPY effect (and remember it was icky yucky weather outside!).
Exhausted but sufficiently suffoncified with my fab purchases.
COAT coat, Alexander McQueen scarf, Rocco P. boots, MOTHER jeans, Neiman Marcus sweater, Celine bag.

FUN to the maxxxxxxxxxxximum 🙂 xo
That is THE best way to spell maximum I have ever seen!
May have to use it in the future but promise to give cred.
Sounds like NYC fun worth braving the cold! Looking gorgeous, as usual!
Definitely worth the cold weather – I like to look at that as a mere challenge to find the warmest shops! 🙂
Thank you for the compliment!
So stylish!! I love NYC…especially for shopping and shows!
Me too – a guaranteed instant pick me up kind of location – even in wet snow and cold temps!
Luckily enough fab shops to warm up in.
How was the Mondrian? I’ve been really curious about that place (which looks absolutely gorgeous on all hotel booking sites)..

It was great for location. The happy blue throughout the hotel was fab – instant happy mood!
I had been forewarned to bump it up to a suite as the rooms are really really tiny- but then again the aim in NYC is to not spend too much time in the room anyway.
The restaurant, Isola, is breathtaking, fantastic food and the bar is quite the hotspot – surprisingly.
Sounds like a fabulously chic weekend! By the way, “a fashion blog for the suburbanly challenged” is BRILLIANT! Can’t wait to read more. xx
Thank you Claire – for the awesome compliment and for the follow too!

You look excellently shopping tired, I know the feeling! Love the scarf A LOT.
Nice looking ‘shopping’ outfit.
