Here I am! In NYC. Got here at half 10 and now I'm all settled into my room.
Never have I been so excited in my life! It's such an amazing city- everything I've ever dreamed of, my eyes watered as we touched down, as this is honestly one of the most exciting times in my life. Just looked out of the hotel window to see yellow cabs chasing down the streets, bursting with life, under the tall towering buildings. Just my dream. As for now, we are about to head out and explore this big city.
...............................................
First things first, we went to Macdonalds for lunch! Brilliant. First place we head for food- at least they post all of the calories on the boards here. We got a yellow cabs straight away; I felt so sex and the city. And we made our way to some of the big hits- Bloomingdales, Saks, Anthropologie, Urban Outfitters... I made sure I purchased the new Limited edition Chanel Nailvarnish in Saks; Black Pearl. We stayed out in NY all evening, had dinner at a lovely Italian restaurant called 'Mimis', there were fairylights, breadbaskets and live music- was perfect. We also decided to make the most of our time here and headed out in the evening- went to the comic strip and saw so many hilarious comediens; defintely worth being over tired for; loved getting to experience a bit of the New York night life.
I love NYC at night, the whole city is just alive; the toweing buildings amaze me, you're just one anonymous person. Feels like you can be who ever you want to be; I know one day I will end up here.
Of corse, as much as I am enjoying the experience of this City, I am also making sure I keep my eyes open for new ideas from the US market for our work, I've already seen so much amazing forms of promotion, huge billboards, creative VM and the customer service is a whole new experience. Tommorrow we're heading to FIT, central Park and guess what? More SHOPPING. I could get used to this.
I simply love New York, please don't make me go home.

3rd January 2011.
In just 2 days I will be touching down in NYC, the Big Apple. I can hardly control the excitement I am feeling. Literally cannot believe that I virtually fly tommorrow night.
Super exciting times right now! Today has been rather productive in my preparation for NY- I woke up at a good enough time to hit the shops and make some last minuite purchases and change my cash into dollars.
I managed to get a new pair of military boots, some skinny belts and a new sheer mink shirt with a long back. I also treated myself to some pre-flight pampering with a tasty Chocolate face mask (it smelt so yummy), so now my skin feels nice and rejuvenated.
However, my suitcase is not packing itsself unfortunately, therefore its time to write my list of all the essential items for my trip. Then re-write it again. Then attempt packing.
See you in NY!

New York City countdown- 3 days to go!
I am so excited. There are so many things I want to see and do.
I have Frank Sinatra on repeat and my New York City Playlist is definitely getting me in the mood. I know deep down somewhere that I am going to end up in New York, one day.
Never before have I been so excited about visiting a place; looking up to see the buildings towering above me, feeling like an anonymous character amongst the crowds, feeling the electricity and buzz as passers by go on about their everyday lives. It really inspires me.
