Concrete Jungle Where Dreams Are Made Of...

Hey everyone! If you can't already tell by the title of this post, this week I went to THE 
BIG APPLE (NEW YOOOOOOOOOORK!!!)
It has always been one of those iconic places that everyone who has been tells you it is a MUST place to visit being one of the fashion central cities, and having seen it in tonnes of films I have always wanted to go.

I went with the art department at my college (as I study textiles) therefore we visited quite a few art galleries which was interesting. Unfortunately I caught the norovirus whilst I was out there and for anyone who has had it-knows that it is HORRIBLE!! So unfortunately I missed out on a day and a half of the trip which I was gutted about! :(

The rest of the trip was amazing though and we went on the Rockefeller tour which gave us the opportunity to learn about the cities artwork and history which was fascinating. The tour finished with a 'Top Of The Rock' experience which meant we got to experience the city from another level (70 floors up) which was breathtaking to say the least!

Finally we finished our trip with a little shopping in Soho ;) but we also went to Ground Zero which is something I will never forget, such an emotional and moving experience making me realise the important things in life which I may take for granted sometimes.


This was definitely a trip to remember and I would definitely recommend it as a place to visit. Not only for the iconic places like The Empire State Building, Times Square, Statue of Liberty, Ground Zero etc. But also the stunning architecture, atmosphere and different culture.

Hope you all enjoyed this post, comment if you did!!! :) xxx
