My hair of the day which I was so extremely proud of!

If you follow me on Instagram (@jerseygirltexanheart) you
know that on Saturday I kind of went on Instagram overload. I usually don’t like to post more than 2
pictures per day but I posted 3. I don’t
know why but I just have this weird rule about it. Anyway, I went to Laduree in Soho for the
second time and this time around more of the girls were able to make it and we
met a new blogger! This was the fifth
meetup that I’ve arranged, and I really could not be happier with the turnout,
especially since it was disgusting out (aka raining). I decided to wear the dress that I was give
to review from Rosegal because first of all it’s pink, and second of all the
outfit was perfect for the location that we were going to. I decided to belt it since I love belting
everything. It was extremely comfortable
and a perfect piece to dress up. Since
it’s a simple dress you can dress it up or down. I of course had to be extremely girly about
it.

Sara and her two friends decided to join us as well!
We haven’t seen each other since our last meetup which was a
long time ago. We caught up with
personal lives and our blogs. I like
that we have our little group to be able to talk about things only we
understand. I chose to go to Laduree
again because I tried I believe 7 different places and none of them worked
out. So our best bet was Laduree since
we’ve been there before.

Last time we went to Laduree (here) we were able to sit in
the second room which had better lighting, but this time we sat in the first
room. I had an omlette for lunch with a
Mimosa, and afterwards two macaroons and a cappuccino. I must admit I hate French macaroons BUT, the
only ones I truly enjoy are from Laduree.
I could probably eat a dozen in one sitting. They really do a great job with the macaroons
and the presentation itself. If you are
ever in NYC and hear the hype about Laduree, I highly recommend going
there. It truly is an experience! If you would like to see any past meetups
that I’ve organized, they are listed at the bottom of this post.
Also if you are able to travel to NYC for meetups please contact me so I
can add you to the list for future meetups! Mejmoda [at] gmail [dot] com
