TRAVEL VLOG: SOLO IN NEW YORK | Tiffany Cruz

Just Another New York Weekend

Remains of Summer

I'm not ready for the drop of temperature during the fall season; hence the bare legs outfit. Even during the cold months I like to wear colourful prints to brighten up the day. So for me, it's summer all year round. Well.. In regards to colours and prints at least.

PHOTO DIARY | Celebrating in NYC - Day 3

Very sorry for posting this a little late! This was supposed to be up on Friday last week but I didn't get a chance to. Cannot believe it's our last day (like always). Of course, our first stop would be Shake Shack. I know, I know. Again, right? But whatever! We don't have that burger joint in Canada. We didn't know what time they open and we got there pretty early. So we ended up chilling at Madison Square Park.

Greetings from New York! Just kidding. I am still in my city but posting NYC backlogs. Our second day in New York was pretty cultural. We headed to MoMA (Museum of Modern Art) in the morning. Which I kind of just skimmed through the first time I went there. This time, I actually spent more than two seconds on each exhibit. I assure you there are a variety of very interesting things to see. Plus, there were a lot of stuff that I learned about that I didn't even notice the first time.

PHOTO DIARY | Celebrating in NYC - Day 1

Remember last time when I said I will be back in New York one day? Well.. I DID! And it was sooner than expected. Couple of months later when I visited the city for the first time, I found myself walking the streets of Manhattan again. It was such an incredible experience that I couldn't get it off my head. Seriously, a piece of me was left behind and is now permanently stamped in New York. I decided to celebrate my birthday on a different approach this year. Prior to this trip, I had hosted a BBQ party with the closest of my friends and went out for drink with a few others. On the day of, I flew back to New York. It felt like I never left. This time, it was my mission to go to the places I didn't get a chance to go to last time.

Such Random Places

The photos I put up for my outfit posts are usually in the same place. I don't normally do my #OOTD in different locations. Cohesion is key, right? In some rare occasions, I take photos in different places. Most likely because I didn't have enough photos that I liked in that certain area. So I end up with a variety of shots in random places. Just like in here.. At times like this, I tell myself to scout locations first.

PHOTO DIARY | NYC Day 5

Happy 4th of July to my American friends! And what better way to celebrate this day than to post my last day in New York. It's kind of sad but hey, I will be back. Don't know when. Someday. Anyway, our fifth day was bittersweet. I woke up super early to pack my things so everything's ready to go.

PHOTO DIARY | NYC Day 4

Our fourth day in New York was pretty emotional. But before I go into that, let me first walk you through. You might have been wondering where is my day three recap. To answer that, I didn't get a chance or more like I was kind of embarrassed to take my camera out during the day. As I've mention on my second day post, our NYC night life has begun. My friend and I got a little too wild Tuesday night (got home at 3am). Luckily, I had at least three full glasses of water before going to bed. So Wednesday morning came, she had a hangover - which was kind of funny because I drank way more than her and I was fine the next day. We didn't wake up until around 11am. Since she wanted to stay in bed, I decided to go out and explore the city myself. I had met up with someone for lunch. Walked through The High Line, along W 34th St, then down on Madison Ave towards Madison Square Park. I don't know why but I didn't take photos because I'd definitely feel like a tourist (which I was, really).

PHOTO DIARY | NYC Day 2

I didn't realize until I was going through my photos that I didn't really took a lot of photos during our second day in New York. I think I was mostly concerned about my #OOTDs. Which is both a good and a bad thing in my opinion #bloggerprobs Anyway, this day is the start of a full day of walking.

PHOTO DIARY | NYC Day 1

Here's the moment we've all been so anxious about. Or is it just me? Either way, I am very much excited to share with you my trip to the Big Apple a couple of weeks ago! I've been dreaming of visiting this city and the day has come. Our first day there was pretty chill. We booked an early morning flight just so we can have at least half a day of exploring the neighbourhood and be familiar with the streets and the subway.
