Hey there Mr. Snowman!

Last week I took a mini trip to New York City for some Fantastic Beasts fun. I was in the city  from Wednesday evening to Sunday afternoon, but I worked from a hotel on Thursday and Friday. The trip was in two parts. Part 1: Help out a friend at the premiere. Part 2: Visit with friends in Jersey City and go see the film at Carnegie Hall with one of my best friends.

I was reminded how much I love the Harry Potter fandom. The world premiere of J.K. Rowling's Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them was held in New York City. While I wasn't invited to the premiere this time around, I went anyway to help MuggleNet with their social media. It was a cold evening and I spent a couple hours with my arm held up in the air recording the fans waiting for actors to arrive. When J.K. Rowling and Eddie Redmayne made there way over madness ensued. I was even interviewed by Warwick Davis for an upcoming documentary he's doing! I'm not used to being the interviewee so that was an interesting experience!

Flash forward to Saturday and a perfect New York day. My friend and I had a lazy morning and then he and I headed out to lunch at Pure Thai Cookhouse. We arrived 5 minutes after they opened and it was already almost full. The food was delicious, I had some vegetable spring rolls and chicken pad thai. YUMMM. After that we headed to Bibble & Sip to see if they had any fun desserts left, sadly they just had their famous cream puffs (which I'm not a fan of.) We ended up at another bakery where I got a french macaron and hazelnut and chocolate mousse sphere.

After that we met up with a few other friends and then took a walk through Central Park before heading to Carnegie Hall to see the movie! It. Was. FANTASTIC. I wrote a spoiler free review for my Harry Potter site.  Don’t forget to get your tickets to see Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them ahead of it’s release on November 18th - or tonight in some areas!!

I didn't take any outfit photos but here are some pictures from the weekend.

Crazy purple couch in the sitting room of our hotel!

The black carpet

Warwick Davis interviewing fans for a documentary. I was next!

This is the THIRD time I've been this close to Eddie Redmayne without meeting him. I've been a fan since he modeled for Burberry YEARS ago. One day I'll be able to say Hi! Ha ha.

It's almost time!!!!!!!!

Patiently waiting in line

Another day, another last minute outfit photo shoot! Although this time it worked out in my favor. We were literally the last people in Diagon Alley apart from security and the cleaning crew.  We were there for the night event during the Celebration of Harry Potter so naturally we had to stay until the last possible second.  I really love Universal during these night time events. There are far less people, obviously and you usually get something free (ice cream and butterbeer in this case!)

Cardigan:  Max Studio (gift from Lydia), Crop Top: Zara (ON SALE!), Jeans: J Brand 'high rise Maria' (Gilt), Sandals: Ancient Greek Sandals 'Alethea' (bought in Santorini)

Aaaand as per usual here are a bunch of random photos from my trip that I know you all don't REALLLLLLY care about, but I want to share anyway! This trip I actually did a few new things - Star Tours and just being at Hollywood Studios in general. And then of course there were press events for the Celebration of Harry Potter. (for those wondering - I DID get a chance to chat with Matt Lewis, but I didn't ask for a picture. Next time ;) )

On the plane!
