If there’s one thing I’ve heard over and over again since moving to the city, it’s that Christmas is the most beautiful time of the year here. Christmas lights and a fresh layer of snow could be just what I need to really get in the holiday spirit. We had a quick little taste of that yesterday when we had our first snow of the season. Apparently, it was the snowiest November in 136 years with 6 1/2 inches! I had very mixed emotions about it. Part of me appreciated how nice it looked, but the Florida-girl piece was ready to catch the next flight back to the Sunshine State.
Maybe you currently live in NYC, maybe you’ve visited a few times and fell in love, or maybe you’ve never been here, but the Big Apple still calls your name. Regardless, today’s Gift Guide is perfect for the New Yorker or New York-at heart. I’ve rounded up my favorite NYC themed pieces for a fun taste of the city that can be shared, whether you’re near or far. Did I go a little overboard? Maybe, I mean I included nearly 30 different ideas and spent hours scouring across almost a dozen website. But you have to admit, this guide is absolutely jammed packed. That sad part is though, there were even more picks that either didn’t quite make the cut or I just didn’t have the room for.
Another great NYC gift idea is this sweatshirt from J. Crew. I bought it as soon as I found out that I was moving to the Big Apple, but it quickly became one of my absolute favorites. Seriously, this thing is crazy soft! Paired with this Steward plaid button-down from Old Navy and cheery red flats from J. Crew, a simple sweatshirt gets a quick makeover and becomes the center piece of a very put together outfit that is perfect for the holidays.
Love from NYC,
Katie
