Brown Sneakers

October 6, 2026Josie Girl Leave a Comment

Last month when I was in Paris, the number one fashion trend I saw was brown sneakers. Yep, every single woman was wearing some variation of a brown sneaker. Most of them were Adidas sneakers, but they literally were every type of brown sneaker.

So of course, I jumped on the band wagon of brown sneakers.

Love these so much. Obviously they are comfortable and easy to wear, but they go with every single outfit.

another look.

perfection.

These are the exact ones I got. But you can’t go wrong with brown sneakers and I love them all (and in comparison to all the prices of shoes these days, these are so inexpensive and affordable and I love the price point). I hope you are having a great week!

Things to do Fall 2026 in NYC

September 14, 2026Josie Girl Leave a Comment

There are so many fun activities to do in NYC during the fall: apple pick, bike rides in Central Park, see the leaves change at Storm King, drink coffee while walking down the West Side Highway, walk along the Highline, etc…here are more specific / unique to 2026 that I would like to do this season.

1. See Much Ado About Nothing

In all my research, THIS is the play to go to this fall. I am so excited to see it! Just need to figure it out and get to it! This is a colorful, exuberant play with two major stars and strong London reviews. The Broadway production will open October 31st.

2. Inter Alia on Broadway

I absolutely loved Prima Facie from several years ago, so I am really really excited about this new play. I have no doubt that it will be just as incredible and impactful as Prima Facie.

3. Krasner and Pollack at the Met

Opens up on October 3rd at the Met and should be a great and different exhibit.

4. Taryn Simon at the Guggenheim

This exhibit opens up at the end of the week and should be a fun experience. this presentation will bring together never-before-seen photographs, text, videos, and sculptures into a singular, interactive installation filling the entire rotunda. It will mark the first monographic exhibition by a photography-based artist in the rotunda and the largest debut of new work ever staged at the Guggenheim.

5. A Champagne masterclass at Nine Orchard

Who wouldn’t want to try different champagnes and celebrate them? This sounds incredible.

6. Broom Making Class

I love Tatter, I love crafting, and I love workshops. So taking a workshop of making a broom at Tatter seems like a dream come true. Definitely try it out if you have never before. This class is on November 16th from 11:00-3:30 pm. I have taken a basket weaving class there before and had the best experience.

7. Eat at Cote 550

This restaurant is supposed to be the best with a group. COTE 550 opened in April 2026 at 550 Madison Avenue in Midtown. It’s a new location of the original COTE in Flatiron, which opened in 2017. The room feels like a night out: a blue-lit entrance, an underground dining room with a shallow central pool, and a DJ at the front bar every night.

8. Stuff your face at Frenzie in Brooklyn Heights

I love Pizza so so so much — it is my favorite food group, so reading about this new restaurant makes me so hungry and excited to try it!

____

There you have it! My list of things to do this Fall. Anything else I should add to the list?

Currently Loving September 2025

Sorry for my absence last week — back in New York, back to school (for both me and the kids!), back to figuring out the schedule and the flow. And hardest part — back to waking up so early! but now, I AM BAAAAACCCCCCKKKKKKKKK. Here is what I am currently loving this month.

1. US Open

Yes, the US Open just ended yesterday, but it is my favorite two weeks in the city. And my favorite night is always with my favorite lady, Mrs. Mason. This night is hands down, so fun, and now I get to enjoy it with Tusia who LOVES Mrs. Mason, and LOVES tennis.
