West Village, Manhattan

Moving to Manhattan has been such a big change from living in California. I’ve been loving this fall weather over here and have been making it a priority to discover more neighborhoods around the city in my spare time. Here are some photos from around West Village — definitely one of my favorite neighborhoods I’ve checked out so far.

The streets and architecture have a quaint charm with tons of beautiful restaurants and cafes everywhere. The townhouses here are so beautiful too, perfect to admire as you walk by or if you’re looking for aesthetic stairs for a quick photoshoot.

Brick buildings galore

I discovered this little gem — Paquita. It’s a cozy, hole in the wall tea and coffee shop with a wide variety to choose from. I adore all the beautiful, golden tea tins and the delicate details like the tea pots and floral dishes everywhere. This is the perfect spot to sit inside or outside in their lovely patio with a nice cup of tea and a good book or journal.
