Well look what I found during my recent journeys around New York.
All this time, and I had no idea Stuyvesant Cove Park was such a nice place to go.
There are even some well-cared for gardens. Berries on the bushes are one of the only visible signs that it’s fall in New York.
And there’s even a tiny beach. I would have gone down, but I don’t think I would have been able to get back up. One must leap the fence.

Photos and thoughts on fashion, beauty, tech + city living.
My name is Alex and I have been blogging in some form or another since 1998. I’m a former Manhattanite now living the quieter life in Brooklyn. I like outerwear and red lipstick.
When I was younger, I was let loose in a GAP Kids one too many times, resulting in many of the fashion choices you see here in my photos. I also read, traveled, and took cooking and art classes. Art eventually led me around to photography, and to this day I do enjoy a good brunch.
Thank you for visiting! I hope you'll stay a while and get to know me. Learn More →
You are styling that dress like no other and I love the short booties! The scenery is gorgeous and yes, I agree the accessories at Loft are fantastic :D
Dang. I still really love that dress! What beautiful scenery, too!
your dress is lovely as well as that scenery :)
Lovely Little Rants
Your dress is amazing! I love the print. Those shoes are also super adorable.

love your outfit, esp. the dress! found you through bonbonrosegirls!!
Thanks! I really like this dress, it’s perfect for fall– long sleeves! If you have an H&M near you I highly recommend you check it out!
That is a lovely place, and i don’t blame you for not wanting to go over a fence. I’ve definitely gotten a bit stuck doing that… so embarrassing.
I really need to get some black wedge booties. I’ve decided they are a fall essential.
If I had another person with me, maybe it would have been possible. A tall person, probably. But I might have gotten splashed if I went down. When boats go by the river gets a little rough, and the East River is a not so nice river. I think the Hudson is cleaner.
It is LOVELY! :) That python dress looks great on you!

Thanks! When I got it I expected to feel really conspicuous, but I got it on and didn’t even notice any more. I think because it’s really flattering and comfortable too!
Still kicking myself that I didn’t buy those MIA shoes at DSW, even though then I would have two very similar shoes. Also, still love that snakeskin print dress on you- so cute!!
Hahahaha totally doesn’t matter… we could be shoe twins and have a photoshoot together at the church again. These are really pretty comfortable for 3 inch heels and they’re not hard to walk in either. Wait for another DSW discount to come along and get them!
Ohhhhhh, you got that H&M dress! Jealous!
It’s such a great dress! If you have a chance to go to H&M you should definitely pick it up. It comes in solids too!
