And we're back..


Fi & I have been back from New York ages ago, but we've just been lazy. Please forgive us. Here is a quick recap and a few tidbits and facts of the exciting and maybe not so exciting things that happened over the past couple of weeks..

-We met some of our blogger friends! EEP. It's funny how blogger and twitter bring people together in this crazy blogging world. We had the chance to meet the gorgeous, charming and hilarious Wendy Brandes from Wendy Brandes Jewelry and the beautiful soft spoken Deanne from Dream Sequins on two separate occasions when we were in NYC. It almost felt like a blind date before meeting them.. I had butterflies in my tummy. We were lucky enough to have the chance to meet them, especially Wendy who was leaving on her European adventure the next day! Thanks girlies for being part of our NY adventure.

-On the topic of meeting bloggers, we met Frankie from Swell Vintage when we were in London. it was like meeting an old friend, even though it was our first time meeting her! She's one of the most fun people to meet, and we both fell in love with her English accent.

-FACT: Virgin Atlantic is fabulous.

-I've done approximately 30 kilos worth of shopping, so there's lots and lots to blog about! And there won't be any shopping for me anytime soon. I think I have a problem.


-FACT: I would love to live in New York.

-FACT: Fiona is still living in her secluded country house, where there is pretty much no form of communication whatsoever. And all odds are playing against her when it comes to blogging...still. We miss you Fiona.

-Listen to Phosphorescent. And you might think, what the hell does this have to do with SOS!'s NYC trip? It fits the theme.. just click.

-Apart from meeting friends and new people, we also did some touristy things like visiting the MoMa, riding the carousel and going on the rowing boats in Central Park, and going up the top of Rockefeller Centre.

And there you have it. Now, we're back.. and you'll see more of us. You might even get sick of us. We've missed you.

OMG. Thanks so much for the recap! I was wondering what you guys did on your other days in New York...Love those pics of Wendy and Frankie! I, unfortunately, look really washed out and silly. :( It's funny that you call me soft-spoken. I guess I don't consider myself that way-- but a friend recently called me "kitten-voiced," which is kind of funny. Meow! Glad to have you back! Come back to New York soon!

It was SUCH a pleasure meeting you two -- but LJ, I didn't know I was TWICE YOUR SIZE till I saw this photo. Ack! I love the picture of you guys on the "shoe" -- fabulous. I want to make a poster of it and hang it on my ceiling. Would that be weird? ;-)

Oh wow, you two sure picked the greatest girls to meet! One day I hope to meet all of you. It will begin with a great big giggle fest and end in a black hole of memories, headaches and toilet breath.

What a wonderful trip!
