A few weeks ago after a triumphant visit to Jimmy Choo on Madison Ave and Paul's visit to Oliver People's, we decided to head over to the Nespresso store. I don't drink a lot of coffee regardless of how it is served. It was one of those days where an iced latte seemed appropriate. As we walked in, I knew I loved the minimalist style. I enjoyed seeing the coffee bar, seating and the machines. As we headed to the back of the store, we admired the machines and couldn't decide which was the best one - so we sat down for coffee. Paul went for a double espresso and I had the best Vanilla Latte that had icecream in it. It was the perfect treat on a warm day and I love the dark chocolate that they give you. Although they had a menu of great items to nibble on, it was enjoyable to have coffee and just enjoy the day. The Nespresso machines vary in price range and it seems that many are able to make your favorite varieties. I loved sampling the pods (the coffee is packed in little pods to use in the machines) which have various tastes but couldn't decide on a machine. I think the Cube is the perfect choice and I like that it comes in various colors!

As of two weekends ago, I pretty much work out in Aerie (this is a great brand from the brainchild of American Eagle) only! I love that it's fashionable and if you live in Long Island and are near Roosevelt Field Mall, you should pop in as there is an entire store that just has Aerie in it (can I say I love the swimwear and coverups too)! I got hooked when I was with a friend in Chicago and saw that they had great discounts and the pieces were super comfortable! From then on, I have been going into the store buying more pieces that are perfect for yoga, pilates or just hitting the machines. Take a look at what they have to offer and see what you'll find yourself in. If you need a quick bathing suit, think about them as well! As always, the links above in the spread are clickable!
