Ryan and I visited The Cloisters yesterday, which is a really cool medieval museum just north of us, and free for columbia students. It's a really peaceful and unique setting to find yourself in new york city. It's also home to the famous unicorn tapestries, which I was excited about until I saw how violent they actually are...so much unicorn blood:/ Anyway, it's a beautiful place to spend the afternoon, and I highly recommend it if you visit the city- definitely one of those less crowded hidden gems- and it doesn't feel like you're in America for a nice few hours.

  2. Gorgeous pictures! I love visiting the Cloisters, though I haven't been in many years. Walking up the steps makes me feel as if I'm walking in a medieval Hogwarts!

  9. This place look so cool! I want to go! It looks like you're in Europe. Your outfit is adorable too. I love your dress with those rust-colored tights. I really need a pair in that exact shade because it seems like they could pair with pretty much anything.
