cozy winter vlog ☃️ 3 days in NYC book shopping, perfume fragrances, omakase, cafes

H E L L O F R I E N D S ! Is winter lowkey the best season in New York? I spent the end of the year exploring NYC at its coziest, with snowy streets, Christmas lights everywhere, and way too many good shops to visit. From perfume and indie bookstores to high-fashion finds, matcha stops, and some of the best vegan food in the city, this trip was all about slowing down and soaking it all in. Grab your favorite tea, get comfy, and come wander New York with me in the winter. Let's explore NYC! ☕️❄️🤍
