Sometimes a girl just needs a weekend away from it all. A change in scenery to get a little r&r and a fresh new environment to get some work done. The winter slump, given the number of snowstorms we’ve been getting here, really motivated me to find a local hotel deal. As luck would have it, I ended up booking a room at the Element New York Times Square West.
I love the fact that they have a complimentary breakfast buffet (which I brought up to the room) and wifi access (something I think all hotels should have). The beds are heavenly — signature of the Westin brand. I could cocoon myself in there all day. The Element hotels are part Westin’s eco-friendly initiatives.
Say hello to my MCM keychain charm, newly added to the Pashli bag.

The weekend away from home gave us a chance to just walk around and discover new places.
Our view from the room’s window and the Empire State Building.
…and the evening view.

Having a kitchenette was all sorts of perfect for a cozy home away from home experience. Fully equipped!
A look inside the modern and minimal bathroom. Love waterfall showers!
Last, but not least, the view from the rooftop lounge. Hi, New York ;)
