Arriving in New York in August means I still get to experience summer in the Big Apple. With temperatures averaging at about 25°C, I'm definitely making the most of the summer clothes I brought on my trip and topping up my (very slight) tan while I still have the chance.
New York has a whole lot of awesome places to shop, I'm really excited to see what the city has to offer and to head down to Brooklyn for a spot of vintage shopping. So far I've only explored the stores of 5th Avenue and Times Square, but seeing as Forever 21is HUGE over in the States, I couldn't help but buy this cute striped crop top. And hey, for only around £4, who can blame me?
I purchased this Topshop white embroidered skirt from eBay last year and I'm glad to say it has been making a fair few reappearances in this year's summer looks. The lace embroidered detailing is so pretty and provides a perfect contrast to my boyish cropped vest.
I have another few days of orientation at fashion school before starting classes on Monday. I'm excited to get into more of a routine but I'm sure I'll still have time to do lots of exploring! Has anyone got any recommendations of fun things to do while I'm in NYC? Not so obvious tourist-y suggestions please.
