hats! hats! hats!

i used to never wear hats in california. to me, only the stylish could pull it off...and i so was not the stylish. hats became a necessity in my winter move to new york and now i cant get enough of them! i always seem to buy the same types of hats, however.

i was wearing a hat during the day but i decided to change it up and take a picture from a dressing room. i think this is one of my most risque outfits where i try to be stylish.

top: BCBG

jacket: kensie girl

pants: leggings from strawberry

in the evening i finally hit up butter lane and paradis in the east village. paradis yelpers raved that their chocolate cookies are the best. the cookies were HUGE and when you bit into them they were still slightly raw. pretty darn good but still NOT a specialty's semi sweet. ive been hearing about butter lane for a while and have been meaning to go there because you can choose the cake and frosting and they make it in front of you! i must say that they were pretty bomb and is now one of the higher ranking cupcake places in ny.

i brought the desserts over to connie's where they were having a korean pork belly party for "good foods and good friends". i ended up leaving there smelling like delicious meat and probably 5 lbs heavier because the kim chi and mushrooms were fried in the pork belly grease. the only reason i changed was because i decided to go to a bar and didnt want dogs chasing me down the street.
