Wow, New York City really is the city that never sleeps. Top 10 Tuesday this week is a preview of the next few posts from Laura's Couture Collection. We left Kansas City and headed East on an extended bridal market trip. The trip is usually all business, but this time I was able to talk the boss into a longer trip - full of some tourist-y fun!
1. Taking Laura on her first subway ride. We were successful on one trip, however, the second try on the subway didn't work as well. Tips from anyone would be appreciated.
2. Rooftop party at the gorgeous Empire Hotel in celebration wedding dress lines Yumi Katsura, Simone Carvalli, and introducing Victor Harper. Signature cocktails, dancing and socializing, all on a beautiful New York night, what more could you ask for?!
3. Christian Louboutin, Manolos, Jimmy Choo, do I even have to name more of the amazing designer shoes we saw? Exploring the shoe departments of the major department stores on 5th Avenue is always breathtaking!
4. Attending a church service at the exquisite St. Patricks Cathedral. Truly amazing experience to see the beauty of the cathedral as well as the sheer number of people that come together for the evening mass.
5. To travel in style one must always have a little black dress. And when traveling in style you have to stay at a swanky 4 star hotel, such as The Renaissance on 57. Modern with the classic comforts you expect of a 4 star hotel
6. We were able to meet a fabulous photographer, Ed, with Zorz Studios (who is also photographs for Grace Ormonde Wedding Style). Gorgeous photos and an amazingly talented man!
7. Fashion Shows. Seriously, what girls wouldn't want to be front row, at not 1 but 2 couture fashion shows? Designers Reem Acra and RIVINI know how to put on a show!
8. When traveling, who doesn't like arriving early. We were home sweet home 30 minutes before the scheduled landing time. Apparently our pilot knew a shortcut, but when Kansas City's Mayor Sly James is on board, they make sure to get us back to Kansas City promptly!
9. And as silly as it may sound, it was a fun little part of the trip to see a shiny, black Bently blaring Empire State from it's speakers. Such a New York moment!

10. Laura and I have muscles that we never knew we had, walking in heels through the Big Apple is quite the workout, summer is just around the corner isn't it? I think we should be visiting New York a bit more (great work out)!
It was a great trip and we can't wait to share more of it with you!
