Brooklyn Bridge

I thought having lived in Brooklyn for eight months and never walking over the Brooklyn Bridge was pretty sorry. My husband, who has lived in Brooklyn his entire life had never walked over the bridge, which is even more sorry! On this gorgeous Sunday afternoon we decided to get our lazy butts off the couch, put on our walking shoes, and walk the Brooklyn Bridge once and for all.

The most famous view of all!

These old ladies looked so cute consulting the Downtown Brooklyn map

Love this painted building in Brooklyn on Boerum Place and Livingston St.

I'm so glad we finally took the time to be tourists in our own city! The BK Bridge is truly a spectacular sight.

More Spring Flowers

Tulips and daffodils on a Hill
Cherry Blossoms and a Wispy Cloud on a Blue Sky

My mom is a total flower child and while I can't grow things as well as she can, I certainly can appreciate all things flowery!

Polka Dots and Color

One of my favorite things about Spring is that I get to wear skirts without being freezing cold. Yesterday was lovely outside and I had to teach a class in Harlem so I had to dress appropriately for the weather and for the classroom.

Skirt: Forever 21
Tank Top: H&M
Cardigan: Express
Scarf: H&M
Boots: Frye

I am loving polka dots this season and color and I have always been friends. I added the boots to keep the look more casual (and to keep my legs warm) and the scarf because, well, who doesn't love a fantastic scarf? What do you think about my outfit?

Tulips in Brooklyn

April Showers bring May flowers... but these gorgeous pink tulips that I found in on a road divider in Boerum Hill are already here! Love Spring flowers!

Spring Scarves and Sunglasses

After the first week of Spring being out of whack warm, the weather has finally returned to my favorite kind of spring. The kind where I can wear a light jacket and a silk scarf without being chilly. The kind where I can wear my sunglasses well into the afternoon. The kind where the light green leaf buds start to pop out of the trees and shed color on the streets of Brooklyn once again.

Spring is in the Air

Happy first day of Spring! Wait, we had winter?

My favorite part of Spring is the flowers. Daffodils in particular. Today, as I was walking to school through St. Nicholas Park in Harlem, I was greeted by the most lovely hillside of daffodils I've seen in a long while.

I have always loved daffodils! They are such a happy flower. My favorite are the ones that have white petals with a peach center.
