Now that I'm finally back, it hits me as to which updates of details would delight me the most to relive...
Repeat trip reports?
The amazing sights that continue to fascinate me?
Wondrous cuisine we've had in the 3 weeks away?
Or how about sneakpeak into my fav shopping loot?
A teeny bit of every part listed above? Plus the realisation that I love New York above Paris and Rome. How very live-able, enjoyable and with a pace of life sufficiently fast yet with enough gaps to catch one's breath in between. Did I just say, I heart New York - and I'm pretty sure I'll be back someday...

Upon the recommendation from a cute concierge lady at the Hilton, we made our way down to an interesting shop in SoHo ala GAP and with H&M prices - UniQlo. I almost picked up a black sheath by Alexander Wang but couldn't think exactly where it was gona fit in my wardrobe and gave it a miss. But interesting shop to check out still...I'm glad I did.
We did mainly the touristy stuff in NYC - the Empire State, the Statue of Liberty / Manhattan cruise, Times Square, Wall Street etc. I suppose having watched Sleepless in Seattle so many times, it was great being at the Empire State for me. Tho' if I had managed to see the night lights of the Empire State with the little hearts shining through, I'd probably have melted inside. What got me - the MOMA was excellent, I loved the roast chicken at Serendipity, the little Japanese ramen eatery we came across between Madison and Park Avenues, and walking through SoHo cross Broadway, I could definitely feel the creativity around me...
In Philadelphia, I loved the Philly cheese steaks we bought from a roadside store...And in Canada, the Niagara Falls were breathtaking! Not to mention, the beautiful tulips in such lovely hues by the pavements in Canada...
In Vegas, we had the best dinner buffet at Planet Hollywood and the cheapest lime margaritas ever at 99cents (from Bills Gamblin` Salon) - served in plastic cups but they tasted so great...the best shows - KA by Cirque du Soleil and Crazy Horses Paris...and the highlight - the Grand Canyon...I still miss having my lunch by the Grand Canyon with the slight breeze blowing through - total bliss!
In a nutshell, here are some of the most memorable pics we took...
enjoy!












Finally, some of my shopping loot - there're too many this time around to capture in photos entirely...clothes, shoes, lingerie, ooh bath products and more...
And another Chanel surprise...a steal at pre-sale prices from Nordstrom...not to mention, I had the best sales assistant helping me across the US states...


Finally, my first Pucci dress - I love it!

Salut!
