OOTD: Lunch In Brooklyn

I recently got this amazing jumpsuit as a birthday gift from my sister. I love how baggy it is and it's perfect for layering! The weather was surprisingly nice this weekend so I opted just for a t-shirt and Converse, but with winter round the corner I know this will look just as fabulous with a turtleneck jumper and a pair of boots.

What was meant to be brunch, turned in to lunch (we're never on time for things). We headed to a bar/restaurant in Greenpoint that we stumbled across in our first couple of weeks of being in NYC but were yet to try called Northern Territory. Having been blessed with a bit of sunshine we headed upstairs to enjoy the amazing views from the rooftop area, along with some catchy old school tunes blasting out of the speakers. You wouldn't have thought we were in the depths of October. The french toast was definitely tempting, but I couldn't turn down a juicy steak with PROPER chips!

After our lovely lunch we headed back in to Manhattan for a Sprinkles cupcake and a spot of shopping. I decided it was time for me to invest in some proper underwear so went to get fitted at Victoria Secrets with the intention of treating myself. After spending about two hours in the store I still walked out empty handed, however, I do intend to go back this weekend and finally make my purchase. I just needed some time to think about spending $100 on two bras, although I've been convinced that it'll be totally worth it! My opinion of Victoria Secrets has definitely changed; I originally had it pinned it down as a tad 'basic'. I am not the kind of girl to walk around wearing a hot pink push up bra and that's all I thought Victoria Secret's had to offer, but I was wrong! I had such a lovely experience with the amazing staff and actually found a bunch of more subtle, sophisticated underwear that I can certainly see myself in. I can't wait to go and spend my birthday money!
