the big (adam's) apple

we just got back from nyc. we went to coterie, where we bought merchandise for fall 09. the season will be really stunning and bubbles did a great job helping to buy and edit. vendors mostly gave great reports - the shops that are making it are looking forward to a strong selling season. we are really looking forward to the shoes that are due in, it will change the landscape and feel of the store.

on another front, we went makeup shopping. bubbles experienced nars and kiehl's for the first time. ray experienced what it was like to be perceived as "older". while in a cab, bubbles turned to ray and said, "oh, i wish we brought a camera so we could post pictures on the blog!" that didn't happen, but some memories are best left in the mind (insert cheesy john mayer song here).

in addition, ray's sister took ray and bubbles to a heated ashtanga class at pure yoga, on the upper east side. it was easily the hardest yoga session that any of us had ever been to. a girl in the front displayed such pliability and strength (and AMAZING bone structure) that ray shed a tear when the girl struck the bow pose. ray fell over during crow pose and bubbles fell asleep at the end. nice.

now we're back and determined to bring a little bit of new york back with us.
