One Hot Mama!







Okay, so I must admit I'm not a huge follower of celebrities, but I make an exception for Beyonce! I was pretty excited when I heard she was pregnant - I know I wasn't the only one! Everyone waited in anticipation for her post baby pictures and I was definitely one of those! I was simply amazed with her first appearance after the birth of baby Blue Ivy, only Beyonce could look this beautiful after having a baby! She's still kept her baby curves, but she's still sexy as hell!

NYC!

So New York has been and gone now, but my god it was one of the best weeks of my life! I love travelling and I'm a big fan of the big cities. I'm pretty sure New York is going to be one unbeatable holiday, a girls holiday just couldn't compare and countries such as Spain are just nowhere near as amazing as the Big Apple!
We started off our trip with a visit to Ground Zero, it brought out emotions I just can't describe! Everyone in New York has different stories to tell about people they knew or had lost during the attack. Obviously I'd seen it on the tv before, but you just can't quite get your head around how many people were really affected from it! We then spent the rest of the day cheering ourselves up with retail therapy around SoHo, so many bargains to be had in New York. Come prepared with many dollars if you ever visit.
The next 2 days were spent on our study tours, which included companies: Tommy Hilfiger, Anthropologie, Jeffreys, Armani Exchange, Dress for Success, Chaus, OPR and RMC. I must say that I preferred Armani Exhange and Chaus (I have expensive taste for a student) not only did their buildings ooze class but the whole layout, along with the workers were out of this world! I'd love to work for companies like that in years to come. I'm not knocking the other companies, as they were all just interesting! Anthropologie I found extremely inspirtation, the company sets themselves budgets for merchandising all over their stores and come out with the most outrageous, yet interesting displays. After these visits I'm definitely thinking into getting some experience in New York for a couple of months!
Over the rest of the week, we paid visits to the Empire State building (another must if you're ever in the area), Times Square (a place of pure happiness), Central Park and Fifth Avenue. Each and every day was totally different and gave me an insight to life for New Yorkers! Some people say "once you've been to one big city you've been to them all", but I've been to both Paris and London and this is far from true. The people are different, the layout is different, the buildings are different and most importantly, the fashion is different! It's a place I definitely need to visit again and could possibly even live in in the future. Who knows what could happen?!
