Shopping at Soho.

Saturday, April 7th 2013.

The weather is getting warmer, so I decided to go shopping to get myself some Spring clothes. I made Erin wait a long time because I got on a wrong subway:( By that time we were both really hungry so we went for an early dinner. Then it was time to shop!

Show window at Joie.

Chanel display windows. 

After going to Marant, We stopped by at Iro to see some jackets.

There were just too many things I wanted to get. Erin caught me browsing!

7pm. Dropped by at Balthazar to get some coffee. 

The Americano here tasted like if I added three extra shots from Starbucks.

I then took the ACE train to go home. I wonder when I will finally remember all the

train names and subway lines. Still looks very confusing compared to Chicago's !

Floor plans of Dexter, Sex and the City and the Big Bang Theory.

These are floor plans of TV shows.
I love that someone actually put everything together and imagine the whole apartment.
Very interesting!

Park Hyatt Hotel in Seoul.

I stayed in Park Hyatt when I was visiting Seoul. It is modern, luxurious hotel with exceptional spas and swimming pools upstairs. What I loved the most was their bathroom in rooms. I could see the whole city view in the bath tub. I was excited to see that the hotel carried Aesop for in-room amenities, which is my favorite skincare brand.

Sofitel Chicago by Jean-Paul Viguier.

Their purple restroom on second floor is amazing. Its sad that I could not find any picture online. The Frech restaurant 'Cafe des architectes' is great for brunches or to have cocktails at night.

I love the parisian feel and the color palette.

The Public Hotel Chicago by Ian schrager

An amazing hotel that is located near Gold Coast, Chicago. I love everything about this hotel, from its Neo-Classic motives to Pumproom, which is packed with people at night. I love the mysterious mood of overall. Marilyn Monroe Suite at penthouse level is small but is decorated elegantly.
