To be completely honest, I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I flew up to Buffalo, NY this weekend. But it absolutely ended up being such a fun, whirlwind of a trip. Tony Walker is basically a mecca of… well, everything. I thought it would just be a regular clothing store, but the Tony Walker Center has everything. Really. I got my hair blown out and makeup done in the morning; ate dinner, lunch, and dinner again in the restaurant; and spent the day shopping and meeting everyone in the store that pretty much goes on and on and on.
How sweet! The most delicious cupcakes (I ate too many…) and doughnut holes and all sorts of candy!!!
The boys did a fashion show and were absolutely adorable. Tony Walker always has events going on. It was really interesting to be there as an “out of towner.” In NYC when people shop, everyone keeps their headphones in and just ignores each other, but in Buffalo it’s this whole social event. It honestly made me kind of want to move to somewhere where people are… oh I don’t know… friendly! It felt like on big family 🙂
I got to play dress up and had literally so much fun in and out of the dressing room trying on all sorts of things.
… and met some more people! Some of whom got pictures of me barefoot ha.
After everyone had left, I went through the store picking out ten of my favorite things. It was really fun and also kind of challenging because they have so many absolutely adorable things. Lilly. Jack Rogers. Diptyque candles. Theory. Tory Burch. Essie. Laura Mercier. Paige Denim.
(Have you ever wondered what I look like taking an Instagram? ^^^ Squinty eyes and everything.)
A humongous thank you to the entire Tony Walker team and everyone who stopped by the store. I had more fun than I ever could have imagined and really met some wonderful people!!!

What a cute looking store!! Also, you look like Kate Middleton in those first few pics!! You hair and the outfit especially 🙂
You look so grown up in your full-on makeup and hair! The store looks really amazing, though, if it really has got everything.
Your Friend, Jess
I love the button-up, blazer, jeans, and heels look! Somehow you make it look fun and casual instead of super professional and boring.
Ah!! Such an honor to be featured in a picture on your post! Xo Allison 🙂 -www.clearingpreppysname.com
