I'm officially in love... Meet my new "soulmates."
above: my new "soulmate" wedges from Topshop
The Mr. found some great sale fares on the ACES train from New York to Atlantic City, so we headed over on Saturday morning. The new train was a comfortable ride and took a little under three hours. We spent some time at the beach on Saturday. Although it's just not comparable to the beaches in California, it was nice to catch some rays, flip through the pages of some magazines and drink something frosty.

Although we missed fireworks on Saturday night due to some distractions at the gaming tables, the Mr. and I had a lovely, chill time in Atlantic City, which feels like a sleepy seaside town compared to our densely populated city. We stayed at the Sheraton, which is literally across the street from the train station and offers a casino-free environment (no ding ding ding of slot machines from the lobby) and convenience to the outlets and is about a ten minute stroll away from the boardwalk.
All in all, a lovely, quick break away, but now I'm ready to enjoy a summery weekend in the city for a change! Hope you are enjoying the official kickoff to summer... How was your holiday weekend?

Cute shoes!! Glad to hear you had fun in Atlantic City. I've never been, and I want to go! Is it just like Vegas?

Ooh! Another great weekend away I see! It wasn't a holiday weekend here Down Under, but it was a fabulous one (which I hope to post on sometime), went to a nearby wine region Gourmet Retreat for a friend's big milestone bday, was absolutely amazing, and it turns out it was a secret wedding celebration as well (they secretly got married the day before), it was absolutely wonderful! :)

Woah there, the heels on those bad boys is crazy-marvellous!!!

Ahhhh, Topshop is the best store in the world.
Have another shout out for you -- I passed on a lovely blog award to your lovely blog http://www.the-anthology.com/2009/07/istanbul-turkey-3/
Congratulations!

Thanks for your comments! I'm glad people approve of the shoes. I was afraid of getting them because I thought they would be too stripper or tranny ;) But they are actually very comfortable to wear and people approached me on the street to ask where I got them!
Iva: I did have fun ;)
Lily G: Actually AC is nothing like Vegas. The only similarities are the gaming components. The feel of both cities is vastly different. Some say AC is a faded shabby town, but it's a nice getaway for a weekend.
Brigadeiro: Wow-- wine country sounds amazing. I can't wait to check out Australia someday! Sounds like you have the BEST weekend trips.
Carlotta: Thanks darlin! I'm trying to get to your blog, but I have been having trouble leaving a comment on my computer! :(
Beatrice: Thanks for the visit. I love your blog as well!!!
Liz: Hurray for weekend trips! So excited about welcoming you to the Big Apple!
Michelle: Are you kidding me? 105 degrees? Scaryville!
Jess: Thanks darlin!
jane: I love my wedges!
Eden: Thanks for your comment, darling. Can you believe these are my "soulmates" and I Just happened to stumble upon them one day?
Claire: Crazy-marvelous indeed! Thanks for your visit!
Marcy: hahaha
Kelsey: Thanks for the award, dear!
Sounds like a great weekend! Love those Topshop wedges! Chic and they look comfy!
J'adore your new soulmates!!
Love! Those are gorgeous!!!

Why have I not stopped by TopShop yet? Am I crazy? I keep forgetting so thanks for the reminder...Ill go on a Tuesday aft - shouldn't be too crowded right?
And thank you for the advice girl, excellent words from the best source!! XOXO
Oh my!!! the heels are insane! I just love them!!
Fabulous images darlingxxx
Glad you had a great weekend! I was so overwhelmed by the Topshop sale in London, I ended up buying way too many dresses elsewhere instead. Those shoes are a killer, but there's no way I could wear them (couldn't walk in them I think, and I'd be well over 6' if I did).
fabulous shoes, the heels are amazing!
Holy shit, those wedges!
The weekend was well spent with too much heat, lots of sleeping, and hitting up flea markets. 'Twas a good one.
oh i was definitely pleasantly surprised when i walked by topshop yesterday and saw the huge sale!
woha...those shoe are fierce :)
whoa, i applaud you for doing all that walking around in those heels! the beaches look so cool and yay for you guys taking the train!
