Though I am sure this is old news to some, it is new, great news, to me! I have been walking by Pure Yoga for over 2 years now just about everyday. I have always been captivated by its beauty, which stands out even more because it’s placed next to a run down PC Richards & Son. Since my husband and I are moving back to the UES it was time to begin my gym search. I HATE going to the gym, always have. I try to force myself to go regularly because I know it is good for me. I tend to like outdoor activities best, but Manhattan winters do not always allow this. Yoga has always been very enjoyable for me on many levels. I decided to finally step in to Pure Yoga and I was very impressed! The facilities are beautifully serene and peaceful! They offer many more types of Yoga than I even though existed. I am so pumped to try out my first hot yoga class this evening. I definitely recommend checking it out if you like yoga. You will be stunned at the ambiance that this place offers. I have never been this excited about exercise in my life!

SHOW ME THE BUBBLY
I only know one person who enjoys champagne more than me, so when I discovered that there are bars that specialize in serving bubbly you can imagine how thrilled I was. The Bubble Lounge in Tribeca, though on the pricier side, is definitely worth the extra pennies (or dollars…). Champagne and champagne specialty cocktails start around $16. Besides the cool atmosphere and awesome drinks, what I enjoyed most about this spot was the wide clientele. It serves a great place to people watch…you can watched a 50 something year old man dancing by his lonesome (not really a dancing type of place, but apparently can be) or the 40 something bachelor who buys a whole bottle of expensive champagne in hopes of meeting a woman to share it with, or the 20 something girls dressed to the nines. I highly recommend checking it out; you might even pop by after dining at Max J

MAX
My new favorite restaurant, which I can't get enough of! Italian food to die for! I can honestly say that they are the first that has made lasagna better than my Nanna. Very inexpensive, with great drinks, especially if you like prosecco, and an incredibly romantic atmosphere. http://www.max-ny.com/. Max has two locations, one in East Village and one in Tribeca. I have only frequented the Tribeca local but I am sure East Village is just as amazing!

HEATHER B. MOORE
I discovered Heather’s Jewelry line at Michael Fina on 5th avenue a couple weekends ago. Each piece is personally customized by hand. You can choose from green, gold, white or rose in 14k or sterling silver, mix ‘em up I say and the more the merrier! All metals used are also 100% recycled! They are beautiful pieces with a vintage vibe. They would make great gifts ;)

WARBY PARKER
I was introduced to Warby Parker by a friend. I have been eyeing their glasses for some time now and have finally decided to give it a shot. I have an appointment tomorrow in their Manhattan showroom to try on some glasses.The pair that I am most interested in for me is the Fillmore in Tennessee Whiskey seen below.
All Warby Parker frames include the prescription lens and retail for under $100! Probably the best part about this company started up by 4 close friends is that for every pair that is bought, a pair is given away to someone in need.

LEATHER JACKET SEARCH
I have been searching long and hard for a leather jacket. Typically when I shop for something in particular I have already formed what it will look like it my mind. This makes it very difficult and time consuming and often I never find what I was looking for in the first place, because it does not exist. I suppose this is why I went to school to learn fashion design, to be able to create these styles. I have always wanted a leather jacket but have never taken the plunge due to the expense. Now that fall is here and I have to face once again the morning stumble of "it's not warm but not cold so none of my winter coats will do" factor, I have decided it is time. I have looked everywhere I could think of, starting with Lord & Taylor, Bloomingdales, Macy's, Jcrew, Ralph Lauren, Theory, Barneys, the list goes on. I knew i wanted a brown leather coat, that is not cropped, with a hood, and in the bomber style. I wanted to make sure it would be a classic addition to my wardrobe that i could wear year after year after year, it could not be trendy. Finally the search is over, in the place I least expected it. Abercrombie, and at a price point that is very reasonable compared to many of the other jackets I came across.
