So last weekend I made a trip up to New York to go to a Halloween party as well as to hang out with my right hand chica. This year for Halloween I was a peacock, I wasn't really sure what I wanted to be and I kept going back and forth on my decision until I decided to go to Partycity and look at the costumes myself.
My Costume:
My Makeup:
Face:
•Matchmaster Foundation 7.5 (Mac)
Eyes:
•Eye Enhancers Fusion Tropical Palette (Covergirl)- I blended the colors on my eyes.
•Liquid Eyeliner- Carbon black (Eyeko)
•3 in 1 Mascara- Very black (Elf)
Lips:
•Lady Danger (Mac)
•Lip liner- Brick (Mac)
•Lip gloss- Gloss Miroir (Sephora)
Friday:
So Friday night (Halloween) we were originally supposed to go to Taj II, however not only were we quoted a different admission price at the door ($40), the lines were also ridiculously long (mind you, it was freezing and pouring rain in NY). So, Alisha and I decided to go to 230 Fifth instead. 230 Fifth is a rooftop lounge, which I used to frequent when I lived in NY. The price at the door was $24 which included a voucher for two drinks. It was really nice and we had a lot of fun, rain and all lol.
Saturday:
We headed downtown Brooklyn to do some light shopping at one of my favorite stores, Brooklyn Ladies. I absolutely love this store, their clothing selection is very nice and I always go crazy when I'm there lol.
I also had to give a shoutout to my old stomping ground, Long Island University. The photo below is of the main building. So many memories!
It was so cold and rainy in NY that weekend, I had to use my scarf as a hoodie because I did not want to get sick lol.
Saturday night:
I couldn't wait to get to New York, because I had been craving my favorite place, Dallas BBQ. In my opinion, they have some of the best drinks in the city. They have a few locations all over the boroughs, except Staten Island.
I got a Strawberry/ Mango Daquiri and Alisha got a Piña Colada.
The drinks were on point as usual, however I was not at all please with the presentation of the food. No lie, my food came out looking very unattractive. I got the ribs, shrimp and steak combo with French fries. And the only thing I saw when my plate came out was fries, I couldn't see anything else on the plate, because the fries took over the entire plate.
Overall, the experience wasn't horrible, but I guess for me because it was my favorite place to go, I was a little disappointed by the food presentation, but everything else was nice and I was happy to see that the menu even changed and now included more selections of drinks as well as starters.
Looks like fun, very discriptive, felt the excitment.
