I have to harp on about New York after recently visiting it for the first time!~ (more details coming soon) #throwbackthursday
Here are some gorgeous NY images that should be enough to inspire a holiday of your own!
Most of the places featured below, we visited. Ahhhhh, memories. I love the stark contract between the massive urban cityscape and their pockets of natural landscape that are carefully places all throughout the city. Such a magical juxtaposition!

One of my favourite labels, Sass & Bide have recently relinquished a lot of their control as Myer buys out the rest of the brand.
Myer bought 65% of the brand in 2011 and has now bought the remainder as well. Such a shame to see another designer step down from their label such as Collette Dinnigan and Alannah Hill recently.
Although the duo will stay as brand director and creative director, I fear now this will mean the label will no longer produce as good quality pieces. Myer has suggested they will use this move to expand the label into other areas, which we can read as accessories, diffusion lines and other 'branded' items.
Unfortunately, its often these items that return the greatest profit, but it means the brand loses some of their exclusivity and uniqueness.
Its very rare that a diffusion line is a true representation of a label and I haven't seen many work well before.
In saying that, they are set to launch their very first international store in New York this month on November 20! Stay tuned, we wish them the best of luck!
