Africananana

It was sizzling, it was sweaty, it was the beginning of summer here in New York.  And what could be better to do on a hot Memorial Day long weekend than hit up the Dance Africa festival at BAM.

We came on bike, on train and on foot.  And we sweated it out in the hot sun, tried on dresses, danced to all kinds of different beats, ate jerk chicken, made great new friends, drank cane juice and basked in the glory and culture that was oozing out onto the streets.

 One of the most incredible men I have ever come across! Genius style!

What cleanse?

 You are breakin' my heart here. Too cute!

I want to come back in my next life looking like this pretty please!

Living vicariously through Anthony as he made somer serious purchases.  Hello.  Best hat ever?

New friends from all over the place!

I have never seen a girl so happy, or so quiet...after she got her fork and her home style food!

Sweet tamarind....a real sweetie!

um, what's it gonna take to transport everything here to my closet?

Yes Kaiti. Yes!

One of my fav male looks...sharp, yet subtle.

Mr Goodstuff, is that you?

And now for some of my favorite things.....

Essential pantsuit

Michelle Obama Handbag...obviously!

 The most ridiculous thing about this dog was actually its owner's GOLD lipstick.  I need to get some!

I have got two words for you...tropical pizazz!

What a weekend!!!  And what a festival.  I really wish it happened every week!
