Today is my 37th birthday and yes I am one year closer to my big 4-0 but unlike most I have no fear or dread. With age comes wisdom and I've enjoyed every bit of my 30ths and will continue to enjoying them.
I have done more and overcome more fears this year then ever before so look forward to what the second 1/2 of this amazing year brings to me.
I'm an introvert so planned most of my birthday activities for myself. I have NO interest in crowds and hate planning things. At the last min I invited my friends into my solo birthday adventures.
For the first time EVER im sharing my birthday on the blog. Yes I've had the blog for YEARS but never really shared my personal life. But 2016 means change so here you go....
1. Breakfast in Bed...
NO I DON'T LIKE HORSES JUST SO HAPPEN THE PLACMENT LOOK LIKE IT. LOL |
My minime loves to cook so breakfast in bed is usually the start to my birthday. Wheat pancakes and fresh strawberries was a great way to wake up.
2. Get Dresses
Like the dress? Buy dress HERE |
Something old something new something borrowed....not blue. Thanks to Lane Bryant for my birthday dress. What a fun artistic print.
3. Get some culture
I like to take a trip to a theater, museum or music event because I love creativity. This year the MET is my bit of culture.
Being in Fashion, of course I wanted to see the "Manus-Machina" Exhibit. Here are a few pictures.
Chanel Dress at entrance is breath taking |
My bff had the day off so she joined me in the city for my birthday!!!! YAY
This is so her!!! lol |
4. Dinner
I try a new restaurant each year. This year was Sarabeth's Tribeca. If you haven't tried it yet please do. Fresh from the farm ingredients and not over priced like its other area restaurants. I had Italian kale and meatballs with 4 fries from my friends plate (my birthday treat to myself). It was fantastic!!!
5. Realize your dream
Blogging is not all I want to do. So to keep my dreams in front of me I attend or do something to keep my eye on my dream. One thing I would like to do is have a fashion pod cast. I went to the live taping of one of my fave pod cast "Brilliant Idiots LIVE" with radio personality Charlemagne the God and Andrew Sholz.
Yes I tried the pod cast life and it didn't work out before I felt I even started so for now I study the well established. Going to see this was not only entertaining but showed me some tips and tricks.
What an amazing day I had. Thanks also to my friends for joining me. Also thanks to all my stylista's and friend for every message, phone call, cake emoji and IG message sent. I cant reply to them all but trust and believe I saw them all.
