Comfy in Mon Coeur

Another week, another big ol' smile!

Today, I wanted to introduce you to this brand that is truly making a difference in the kids fashion industry. Mon Coeur is a sustainable children's brand that was born out of necessity to save our planet. All the fabrics are made of 100% recycled content postindustrial recycled cotton, recycled polyester from upcycled plastic bottles and recycled Roica elastane. Along with making incredible clothes that are good for our kids and our planet, Mon Coeur also gives back with their philanthropy work. 

"We're dedicated to making kids clothing that lasts, so that our planet does, too."

Three of the most important things parents look for in their kids clothing is style, comfort and good price point. For me, comfort is thee most important aspect when buying items for myself and my family. This is something Mon Coeur does really well. James is wearing the Beige Cargo Pocket Kid Jogger and the Camo Sweatshirt. Both incredibly soft and super cozy. 

Toys"R"Us is back

Toys"R"Us has always been the place I'd take my family when they got good grades or when the Holidays came around. After it's closing many of us were devastated because we knew there would never be another place like it. Imagine aisle and aisle of toys and games for the kid in all of us. 

I'm so excited to welcome Toys"R"Us back and now in 400 Macys stores across the country. I had the opportunity to visit the iconic toy store located in Macy's Herald Square on the 7th floor sitting on a 14,000 square feet space. 

To celebrate its grand comeback, the chain is hosting a series of in-store events at Macy's Herald Square and all other Macy's locations nationwide throughout the month of October. Continue reading for details...

A Butter-full event with Kerrygold

Yesterday my family and I attended a fun interactive cooking experience with my favorite butter brand Kerrygold. 

If you're not familiar with this brand then you haven't tasted excellent butter. Kerrygold is a butter and cheese company that makes it's products with milk from Irish grass-fed cows. & you can taste the difference. Kerrygold has been around since 1962 and it's been a fan favorite from the get-go.

The event was in celebration of Kerrygold's latest launch, The Magical Pantry. A website that was created for parents and children to spend quality time connecting with each other. The idea is to involve the entire family in the cooking process and allow them to see how they can create delicious things with their own hands. All while enjoying story telling, learning recipes and creating memories. I'm all about involving my family in the kitchen and now you can too.

The Magical Pantry, designed to help families learn to cook together with delicious recipes and fable-like children’s stories. Designed for both desktop and mobile, The Magical Pantry allows young families to fully customize a character, pick from almost 40 recipes, and select one of 4 unique fables. Their character is then incorporated right into the pages of  the story – where hundreds of combinations of recipes and stories magically come to life.

Warm Tones

This outfit is the epitome of Autumn. A plaid wardrobe, denim and comfy boots are essential during the cooler months. All New Yorkers know that when the temperature drops you bring out the warmer tone vibes. This plaid jacket is an old Joie one but I've liked some similar ones below.

Este look es el epítome del otoño. Una chaqueta de cuadros, jeans y botas cómodas son esenciales durante los meses más fríos. Todos los neoyorquinos saben que cuando la temperatura baja, sacas a relucir todo tonos más cálidos. Esta chaqueta a cuadros es una vieja de Joie, pero me han gustado algunas similares a continuación.

Nubiani Korean BBQ

NUBIANI

315 5th ave #3FL, New York, NY 10016

(917) 623-0807

I've lost count at how many times my family and I have visited Korea town. It's been a tradition of Moe and I since the birth of our children. Hazel, my second daughter is obsessed with Seoul which is located in Food Gallery 52 right on 32nd street. It's her all-time favorite restaurant for noodles. Me in the other hand, I'm more of a Noona Noodles kind-of girl, also located on Food Gallery 52. 

Before going on vacation I made an appointment to get my lashes done at Secret Eyelash. The space is located on the 10th floor of 315 5th ave. As I entered the elevator a young couple is already in there. They got off on the third floor. After noticing chairs, I took a little peek and realized it was a restaurant. Being the nosy person that I am, I also got off to checkout the menu. It was Nubiani. I immediately made reservations and after my lash appointment, I enjoyed the most delicious Korean bbq!

Once home I told Moe and the kids about this new gem I had found. They were eager to visit and so two weeks after we visited as a family. It was obvious that this would be our new favorite place. Watch my video here.

He perdido la cuenta de cuántas veces mi familia y yo hemos visitado el area conocida como Corea en NYC. Ha sido una tradición de mi esposo y yo desde el nacimiento de nuestros hijos. Hazel, mi segunda hija está obsesionada con Seúl, que se encuentra en Food Gallery 52, justo en la calle 32. Es su restaurante favorito. Yo, por otro lado, me gusta mas Noona Noodles, también ubicada en Food Gallery 52.

Antes de irme de vacaciones hice una cita para hacerme las pestañas en Secret Eyelash. El espacio está ubicado en el piso 10 de 315 5th ave. Cuando entré en el ascensor, una pareja joven ya estaba allí. Se bajaron en el tercer piso. Después de notar las sillas, eché un vistazo y me di cuenta de que era un restaurante. Siendo la persona entrometida que soy, también me bajé para ver el menú. Era Nubiani. Inmediatamente hice una reservación y después de mi cita para las pestañas, ¡disfruté de una barbacoa coreana más deliciosa! Vean mi visita aquí.

Una vez en casa, le conté a mi esposo y a los niños sobre esta nueva joya que había encontrado. Estaban ansiosos por visitar, así que dos semanas después los visitamos como familia. Era obvio que este sería nuestro nuevo lugar favorito.

Leather Jacket in NYC

The moment the leaves start to change color or start to fall, I know it's time to pull out my leather jacket. There's something about a black leather jacket that never seems to go out of style. It can be styled edgy with jeans or faux leather legging or with a dress how I'm styling it today. For me, a jacket like this is one of the best investments pieces in my wardrobe. I've own this one for over 7 years and it's still in mint condition. As a matter of fact, the more you wear a jacket like this the better it looks.

En el momento en que las hojas comienzan a cambiar de color o comienzan a caer, sé que es hora de sacar mi chaqueta de cuero. Hay algo en una chaqueta de cuero negra que nunca pasa de moda. Se puede combinar con jeans o legging de piel o con un vestido como lo estoy usando hoy. Para mí, una chaqueta como esta es una de las mejores piezas de inversión en mi closet. He tenido este durante más de 7 años y todavía está en perfecto estado. De hecho, cuanto más usas una chaqueta como esta, mejor se ve.
