Hidden Gems

7.16.2014


Mayle Florinda dress, Free People boater hat (similar here), Vintage and antique silver jewelry, Alexander Wang Brenda crossbody bag, Priya sandals c/o Shoedazzle. Shot by Isaac Lacey at The Cloisters.


 Staycation. Although I hate the term in general because of its marketing overuse and overall cheese-factor, I must admit, I love the practice. Especially when you're in a city as dense as New York, taking a little time to escape and explore nearby treasures is essential to daily life.

On this particularly golden summer Sunday, I tossed on my favorite Mayle shift dress and a pair of comfy gladiators, and forced coerced Isaac into heading up to The Cloisters with me. A few train delays and transfers later, we found ourselves in beautiful Fort Tyron park, surrounded by gorgeous gardens and medieval art and architecture, all while overlooking the Hudson River. If you live in NYC (or even if you're just visiting) I highly recommend this serene escape.
