Big Apple Bound

Hello everyone! 

I'm back! 

I'm sorry for not updating and virtually disappearing for a while. I didn't plan it! My keyboard on my laptop has been giving up on me for a while now, but a few days ago, it completely stopped working. I got a replacement now and I'm ready to roll!

Today I'm here with a little bit of a different post. I was challenged to put outfits together for Kendra,  a mom of three who's going to New York. This is the assignment I got: 

Big Apple Bound

In just a few short days, I will be leaving to meet up with a group of friends in New York City. The Big Apple has a long history and offers visitors the chance to experience a vast array of new experiences. Planning this trip has built excitement and a new appreciation for all that this major city has to offer travelers. Now that the time to leave is almost here, I have started to pack. I am a mom with 3 children and find myself in need of some real fashion advice. I have created the Kendra Fashion Challenge to get some much-needed advice on what to pack for my upcoming trip in one of NYC best hotels, The Standard Highline Hotel.

In all of our planning one of the easiest thing to agree on was a special outing at the Biergarten. This trendy German restaurant located at the Standard High Line Hotel is home to Chef Kurt Gutenbrunner. In the summer months, guests enjoy dining al fresco, while in the winter months the restaurant is glass enclosed. We are all excited about enjoying a traditional German meal that includes sausage and pretzels. Of course, we will enjoy our German beer during our games of ping-pong. One of our friends ate at the Standard Biergarten on the rooftop of their Los Angles hotel and could talk about nothing else for days after.

Selecting our meal at Biergarten was easy, but there were other outings that required more compromise and research. Choosing between so man wonderful things to see and do is not always easy.. From taking a horse and buggy ride through Central Park to visiting the Standard High Line hotel, one of the best places to stay in the city, I want to look my best and feel my best.

Here are some of the outfits that I had in mind! Eventhough everyone is running in heels in New York, I also got a couple of outfits with wedges or even ballet flats. Who says you can't be fashionable that way? It'll sure  be more comfy, after all, you're on a holiday!

I mixed casual, classy, sexy,....
