before going off to college, my best friends and i decided to "chill out" for the last time-- in a couple of months. we are all big nerds-- one is becoming a junior in high school, one is studying at an ivy, one is in d.c. and the other is going to a small college all the way in the deep woods of boston... and i? i will be walking down the busy stretch of the "busy" city of Boston. Boston is seriously not that busy. It shuts down at 7! Sadly. Anyhow, we did what was tradition and decided to walk around downtown and do some shopping...
even though top shop (nyc) opened in april, i haven't had the time to visit it until today. yes, today. it was today that my best friend, jocee and i finally had time to see it together and witness the "fashion phenom" of europe. to be honest, it wasn't that big of a deal. it was crazy expensive and i was expecting better clothing at the prices they were shooting out. but i guess it is for the carelessly spending rich folks (def not economically friendly). with all this said, the clothes were not as great (meaning not as creative as i have seen online, and def not worth the price tag). however, i did pick up a little gift for myself-- which i will show you later on. (clue: it is a pair of shoes)
however, with our last days approaching, downtown was a wonderful place to shop. little vintage jewelry shops everywhere. my other best friend joey bought a bracelet (retailed for $400 due to its vintage edge) but got it for $50.
and drinking bubble tea was a splendid desert in the middle of the day. as well as dumplings!
here are some of my favorite shots from today:
and i probably know what you are thinking-- that my friends are fashionably adept. i think it is personally very cool to have friends who know how to dress well.
Awww!! These photos are the best :D I wish I could go to the topshop in NYC...
