They say that worrying is a misuse of the imagination. We wouldn't want that, now would we?! So instead of allowing my mind to be clouded with fear of what's to come—I'm talking to you, motherhood—I figured I could channel my energy into something more cheerful, like an imaginary getaway. After much contemplation, my midweek escape would look something like this...
- WEAR // A dashing departure from Del Rio means an exciting escape to NYC. Care to join me?! My pretend getaway would obviously revolve around this fabulous Deco Dot Dorothy Coat. And while I'm at it, I should also note that for the sake of today's post, I'm not packing around an extra 35 pounds. Woo Hoo! Sorry, Max! To complete my imaginary look, a chic silhouette like this can only be topped off with a bright pink lip. Funny Face, anyone?
- SEE // Because Maira and I are kindred spirits (mutual love for pom-poms and Matisse), we'll spend the afternoon together at the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum. Obviously, I'll get a sneak peek at her My Favorite Things Exhibition, which opens to the public in early December. Ah, the perks of make-believe besties...
- EAT // Trotting around the city and ogling over artwork is enough to work up a serious appetite. In this case, I have no choice but to go straight for the Crack Pie. Who needs a fork? You better dig in because it won't be around for long.
- BUY // A day this glorious is only complete with snazziest of souvenirs. I'm thinking now would be a good time to finally splurge at John Derian. This Hugo Guinness Typewriter Print is absolute perfection and would look right at home above my Parsons Desk. As I bid this wonderful city adieu, I might as well make a last-minute pit stop at the Chelsea Flower Market for some fresh flowers. We all know how the local HEB lets me down in that department...
Now tell me, how would you escape the ordinary? Go wild with your imagination.
Oh, and don't worry about money, location, etc. After all, it's Whimsical Wednesday in bloggie land. Get down with your creative self!
