Modern Biker

In New York my Ace and I had a blast, it was just so refreshing to be around someone that you mesh so well with. On this particular day we decided to get out of the house and go out we went to RK Bridal in the city before shopping. She tried on her bridesmaid dress for her cousin's wedding, while I took the opportunity to start my dress journey. I learned a few things about my desired dress style. I can't do ball gown dresses, they make me look humongous! I don't like sequins, diamantes, or lace on any wedding dress, I'd rather have banging jewelry. As the sales adviser said, 'I like all the drama without the bling'. I think I found a winner as I started crying in a particular dress. But I still have to do more browsing...

As usual I was the plain Jane and Ace was the Modern Biker chic, guys were breaking there heads looking at her all day!!!! I forgot how forward American Men are. Black, White, Hispanic whatever American men are forward, and I kind of missed that confidence in men. I don't miss however the rude cat calls! *thumbs down*

One thing I have noticed in America is fruits and vegetables are expensive. Thus, when I saw this fruit and veg stand, I took the opportunity to buy many fruits as they are cheaper on the street. I miss NY can't wait to be back this summer.... I'll break out these sneakers again then. I know you're probably tired of them now, lol...
