Where to stay?

Moxy Times Square
We stayed here when we visited NYC in January. It was fantastic, the perfect spot for millennials. So on-trend and very affordable.
Moxy Chelsea
We haven't stayed here but I'm a little bit obsessed with the Moxy brand and super obsessed with this area of NYC.
1 Hotel Central Park
This hotel looks amazing. The rooms looks super chic and have a view of central park. Definitely on my list of places to stay.
The most Instagram-able spots in The Big Apple.
The Empire State Building: We were strolling back to our hotel when I saw a bench on the sidewalk so I hopped up and got Keith to take pictures for me! And I am SOOO glad I did! This is one of my favorite photos ever
Brooklyn Bridge: A Classic. The day we went to Brooklyn Bridge it was CRAZY busy, like almost scary, so getting this photo was tricky but we persevered and got the shot!! (and almost froze to death)
DUMBO: Another classic, but also a super cool place to wander around and get some great NYC Pizza!!
The Friends Apartment: This was the coolest to see! I am so obsessed with Friends and getting to see this building in real life (and while wearing my friends T-shirt) just made me so happy!! This is in Greenwich Village which is such a cute place to stroll around and soak up the atmosphere.
The Crosswalk: This was a ballsy little impromptu moment when we were crossing the street in Greenwich Village and I loved the background so I made Keith snap some photos while we crossed!! So glad I did because just look at that sky *drools*
The Subway: I loved loved loved taking photos on the Subway so much!! I wanted to get more on the train itself and on the platform but I kinda forgot!
The Met Opera: we went to see Die Zauberflote at the Met which has always been a dream of mine and so I absolutely had to get a photo feeling like a boujee queen
The most overwhelming place in the world? Maybe. We didn't get many photos here because honestly, it was too busy and too stressful and we weren't getting up early for photos, we were on vacation.
Things to do
Some cool places to go and things to see.
Greenwich Village
The Friends Apartment, Cornelia Street, hip cafes. Potentially the coolest place in NYC.
Brooklyn Bridge
One of my fave places to go in NYC. Brooklyn Bridge, DUMBO and exploring Brooklyn.
Grand Cental Station
Overwhelmingly gorgeous, overwhelmingly busy. Another must-see on my list.
The Met Museum
One of the biggest museums I've ever seen. And very cool for fans of Gossip Girl.
Columbus Circle
An iconic image of my childhood is seeing Gisele from Enchanted look up at this statue and exclaim her beauty.
The Statue Of Liberty
And Staten Island. An important visit for everyone to see a little bit of immigration history and of course Lady Liberty.
