This weekend I am starting to pack for our trip to New York City! We’re going for our fourth annual World Science Festival. My husband is an engineer/deep thinker and he enjoys the lectures by some of the world’s top scientists. I attend, and try to absorb a few ideas, heh. There are also some lectures in the mental health field, for moi.
We’ve secured a cool little studio in the West Village to stay in for a few days, and of course there will be plenty of time (says I) for thrifting and vintage shopping. I am packing light, and will supplement my wardrobe with some NY finds as I go, like I did last Fall. Whee!
I have followed the guidance of Une Femme, a very experienced traveler, in creating small capsules. I’ll be relying on a couple of knit skirts and tops, a Karina dress and one pair of jeans, plus ultra-comfortable walking shoes. The shoes are the key to a happy NYC vacation!

Posting will be light next week, after Visible Monday. I’ll be shopping up a storm expanding my mind. Have a wonderful Saturday.
By late May/June it'll be warming up in New York, it could be warm for boots on some days. Tucking a pair of light oxfords or rubber bottomed sandals in might be prudent.
I envy you getting to go to NYC. I hope you have a wonderful trip. I love those Doc's shoes. I just wish they came in my size.
Have a wonderful time Patti!! May you find the most AWESOMEST thrift store with fabulous stuff super cheap!!
How much fun, Patti…I think I would expand my mind the same way you are!! See you for Visible Monday!
Love your walking shoes/boots, both comfortable and stylish. Waiting to hear all about your NYC adventure and your new finds.
Boots are a must – I spent a whole day in Paris walking only in ballet flats and my feet have never been so sore!
wish you a nice trip.
Greetings Sabine
Sounds like a wonderful trip! Have a great time – I'll be there for Visible Monday!
