My Weekend in the East Village....Wine, Cheesecake and Flea/Street Markets!

First let me thank my gracious host Sloan for letting me stay with him this weekend. It's just what this girl needed. After a long hard week at work....Lara, Sloan and I had a wonderful night out listening to Jazz and prior to drinks Sloan and I went  to his favorite local restaurant Yaffa Cafe which btw I has the most amazing cheesecake!! The following morning the fashion gods were looking down on me because as soon as I stepped out onto the fire escape and looked onto the street directly in-front of me was the weekend flea market right outside his doorstep!!!!

Take a look at some of the hidden treasures that my friend Lara and I stumbled upon! Thanks again Lara for being my model for the day! In the flea market I found wonderful jewelry and great finds for an apartment. Everyone was super friendly...some to friendly lol and just all around wonderful afternoon. This particular flea market is located on Ave A and E.11th st. After the flea market we walked through the East Village to Union Square where we came upon a street festival. These Street Festivals are always a wonderful surprise to find because not only do they wonderful jewelry and accessories but also pretty awesome food. From there our wonderful afternoon continued with FREE wine tasting. What a great way to meet new people! Single ladies.....it's a good spot. ;) 
They have EVERYTHING here!
Love Love the Black and Gold top on the top right hand corner....You can't really tell but its sheer.
