I recently had the pleasure of dinning at The Four Seasons in New York City, the epitome of the Manhattan restaurant scene. The restaurant is beautiful, the menu is to die for and I can get super glam for the night.
As all ladies know, there is a lot of prep that goes into choosing the perfect outfit for any event. I took pictures and sent them to friends, tried on countless looks & styles, little black dresses, sequin tops and furs before deciding I had gotten it right. I went with a long sleeve, patterned dress from Francesca's the type that fits so perfectly you feel as though it was made just for you.
Being much older than I was during my list visit to The Four Seasons I was able to appreciate all aspects of the experience. The bubbling indoor fountain, a Picasso in the hall and seasonally changing trees had me seriously impressed. I am determined to replicate the chains strung between the windows that appear to be moving, in my own house one day!
The illuminated mirror in the ladies' lounge has the allure of a vintage Hollywood dressing room.
( I wish this picture captured the zipper running the entire length of the back of my dress! )
We were there to honor my amazing grandmother for her 85th birthday, she would beat me if she knew i revealed her age! Voila !She was presented with a fluffy cloud-like tray of cotton candy complete with sugar coated pieces of lavender and topped with a candle. Yummm, sugar. So unique!
If you're ever dinning at The Four Seasons I would recommend trying the French Martini. Two of those will have even the most seasoned drinkers feeling warm and fuzzy!
