September is almost over. I honestly believe there is some secret force that makes the months go by so fast that you feel like you fell asleep at the beginning and woke up at the end of the month but you only slept a few hours.. Looking back at September, which is always the busiest month, I feel very happy and grateful for my experiences, the highlight of which was definitely New York Fashion Week. Not only I enjoy the fashion week itself, but going to New York is already exciting enough :)

I always have these mixed feelings towards New York - I love and hate it at the same time. It makes me angry, happy, encouraged and disappointed - kind of an emotional roller coaster. But the only feeling the stays the same is the warm feeling that I get when I arrive at my "home away from home" - The Empire Hotel. Last year I gave you a sneak peak of my hotel room, and this year I am taking you to the rooftop where I snapped a few shots right before it started raining on my last day in NYC. That day was full of meetings so I went for a cool black and white look with my favorite wedge converse that I can't get enough of.

Being a blogger I did a very uncommon thing on my trip across Europe: I never took a single outfit post. There are two reasons for that. First, it was a vacation and I wanted to take some time off my blogging and second, it was so cold that I couldn't wear anything other than a thick puffer coat over the sweater and my Prada boots, which happened to be the warmest boots out of all I got =) 

I still snapped some photos to share with you guys since I visited so many beautiful places in such a short period of time. The photos don't do it justice, but the atmosphere in all these places is magical and the fact that my loved ones were with me made it so that I will cherish those memories forever. I learned that it doesn't really matter where you are as long as you have the people you love next to you. I was equally happy on top of the Eiffel Tower as on a five hour train across France. And in light of hopefully the hardest year behind me and my family, I learned that the key to happiness is having a supportive loving and most importantly healthy family.

I wish I could convey the hectic life of Milan during sales period, the exquisite beauty of the romantic Venice, where every single stone could tell you centuries worth of beautiful stories, the most picturesque and relaxing sunsets in South of France and the historical, elegant and one of the prettiest cities in the world - PARIS!

I loved staying at the Empire Hotel during New York Fashion Week. It was right in the middle of all the action, literally steps away from the Lincoln Center (no cab required!) and had the best parties on the rooftop. One of them was the RewardStyle party - the coolest part was getting there: get out the hotel room, take the elevator and ... you are there =)

On a side note, I found my new favorite brand! Edward Roth is a luxury brand that connects art and fashion together! All their art is licensed and impossible to copy which makes you feel like a million bucks when wearing their unique and fashion forward clothing!

I felt so lucky to wear their exclusive and incredibly beautiful dresses during the Fashion Week - I never got that many compliments on my outfits as when I wore Edward Roth!

Be sure to check out their new store (or shall I say gallery?=)) in Soho, New York!
