New Year’s Eve 2014

Happy New Years!

New Years Eve 2014

We are currently relaxing on Meg & Russell’s couch in Brooklyn sipping mimosas and watching Harry Potter. In my opinion it’s the perfect relaxation afternoon after a fun New Year’s Eve.

New Years Eve 3

Our flight from Savannah landed in New York around 3pm which gave us just enough time to shower and change before heading out. Since neither Meg nor I knew what to wear, we ended up sharing a Rent the Runway order which worked out perfectly! She wore the two piece Badgley Mischka while I wore a Slate & Willow sequined, copper tone shift dress.   We didn’t have time to get blowouts so instead she put my hair up using a sock bun.

Our festivities started in Carroll Gardens, meeting the newest addition to our supper club, Eloise Margaret.

She stole all our hearts last night, sleeping and cuddling in our arms while we brought her mom and dad a bit of New Year’s Eve cheer. Even though they didn’t make it out with us last night it was the perfect start to the evening and so much fun.  IMG_4840 New Years Eve 11

From there, six of us headed into Manhattan to ring in the New Year at Toro NYC. Their chef’s table, in the back corner, served as the perfect base for our group of more than 20 friends.

Toro’s family style menu included an array of Spanish tapas including delicious street corn, grilled octopus, Spanish style potatoes, and marinated skirt steak! My favorite was definitely the grilled octopus – so delicious!

At 10:30 Toro staff cleared away the tables and chairs, set up an ice luge and let the DJ kick off the party.

What did you do to celebrate New Year’s Eve?
