Best of Astoria

IMG_9972-4

Astoria has come a long way since it's early Dutch and German days in the 17th century. The people who inhabit this now-popular middle class neighborhood are Greeks, Middle Easters, Brazilians, latino Americans, Bangladeshis and Asians. Astoria is a melting pot for every ethnicity.

The amazing thing about this area is that you can find a Thai restaurant next to a cafe next to an Australian restaurant next to a bakery next to a... you get the drift. It's so accessible by train + bus and only 15 minutes away from Manhattan and did I mention the incredible view you get from Astoria Park of Manhattan.

random fact: I met my now husband in Astoria:)

In these last few years we have been noticing the amount of rich-ters ( not hipsters ) moving in the area. You'll find low-key bars like Let Love Inn serving unique cocktails such as the Dirty Brunette which almost feel Williamsburg-ish. Let me get to the point.. the demographic is changing drastically and I see it as a good thing. The neighborhood is definitely coming UP.

random fact: Tony Bennett grew up in Astoria.

We all know Astoria as the place to find the best restaurants in NYC. & by the best I mean great, fresh food that will keep you coming back for more!

It's very tough narrowing down the best of Astoria because to be quite frankly, there's a lot of great restaurants/bakeries/tavernas and cafes. In todays post I'll be focusing on two of my favorites and most recently visited restaurants.

The Children’s Place Spring Collection

IMG_0112-4

There's nothing more fun than dressing little girls up! So much to add and so many colors and patterns to play with. I've teamed up with The Children’s Place to share their Spring collection and give you 3 tips on how to dress little girls. 

tip #1- Don’t be afraid to mix colors and patterns.
If anyone can get away with mixing colors and patterns, is definitely kids. 

tip #2- Accessories!! Sunglasses, scarfs, bracelets, handbags and headbands are a great way to personalize outfits for your little ones. 

tip #3- A pair of silver or white sandals are the best investment for any child during Spring. They match with pretty much anything and add the right amount of glam to a casual or dressy outfit.

Si alguien puede salirse con la mezcla de colores y patrones, es definitivamente las niñas.

#2- Accesorios!! Gafas de sol, bufandas, pulseras, bolsos y cintas para el pelo son una gran manera de personalizar trajes para niñas.

When my family and I were invited to attend The 23rd annual Family Benefit at The Metropolitan Museum of Art we were thrilled because it's our favorite museum in New York City. My girls were prepared for a night of fun mystery solving games, arts and crafts, ice-cream eating, puzzle making and at last.. an awesome dance party along with a kid-friendly dinner at the Temple of Dendur in The Sackler Wing. 

I hope you enjoy the photos below and if you'd like to attend any future events at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, please click here. Happy weekend!
