NY girls... and bluebirde?

blubirde · Chanel

Oh, fun! I'll be there next Thursday through Monday. I'd love to hit a few bars or do some shopping with you girls!

honey · Gucci

i have 2 more weeks of unemployment so i'm in! the only day i can't do is monday (school starts).

cc · Marc Jacobs

Sounds great! I don't think I have any plans so probably any night would work for me.

blubirde · Chanel

I should add that Friday day and most of Saturday are packed with wedding stuff. My best times are:

Thursday afternoon/evening
Friday evening (after 8:30)
Saturday really late evening (after 11) - probably suitable only for bars if at all
Sunday all day

dot · Marc Jacobs

any day is good for me except for friday.. i have to pack for mexico! wheee!

shopaholic · Dooney & Bourke

have you gals all met up before?? im new to the forum but i'd like to meet up. im only free on sunday.

cc · Marc Jacobs

shopaholic, a bunch of us met up in January for drinks and in previous years there have been other get-togethers.

Does everyone just want to meet for drinks? Drinks at someplace that has food too? The bad thing about meeting at the W bar last time was that they didn't have food.
A few years ago some of us met for brunch and that was fun too.

dot · Marc Jacobs

i vote for food and drink. both so important!

mckenke · BCBG

I am out of town next weekend, but I think I can do Thursday night.

sephorablue · Marc Jacobs

seems like Thursday is looking like the best day since people are going out of town... and I agree re: food and drinks! But do we want a restaurant, or a bar that serves food?

scarlett · Marc Jacobs

I'm in!

Would a tapas bar be good? Nice combo of drinks and food without the formality of a regular sit-down dinner.

sephorablue · Marc Jacobs

oooh, good idea scarlett... I'll think about places.

shopaholic · Dooney & Bourke

so is it settled? thursday meet up? is that today? or the 17th? and what time? i would love to meet up with all of you...but why am i so nervous??

monica · Kenneth Cole

i'd like to come too; next thursday we're going to a yankee game for a work outing - so i'm forewarning that i won't look cute :)

i think it's next thursday, not today.

back when i posted at the lucky forum (four years ago?) a bunch of people got together, including some who post here, and i was very nervous the first time we all met. but then i had a great time and met some really great people. don't worry!

As far as places go, my girlfriend (who will be with me - she's so cute!) and I were planning on going to dinner at Tia Pol Thursday evening. Would that work? It's supposed to have great tapas.

i was going to suggest that! it's a fun, casual tapas place with REALLY good white sangria :)

Thursday is good for me but I work until 7 so I wouldn't be able to come until around 7:30.

I've never been to Tia Pol before. Can it accomodate groups?

After 7:30 works for me, too. We plan on doing some shopping before we go to dinner. I think Tia Pol recently expanded but I wouldn't bet my favorite shoes on it. I've read so much info. lately that it's hard to remember what's what.

How many are we talking?

And shopaholic I know exactly what you mean. I've already recruited a friend to come over and help me pick a cute outfit. Man, I'm lame!
