Columbus: I am quickly learning not to judge.... cities that is :) Not gonna lie I am a bit of a city snob, love Chicago, love DC, love Paris, love lots about Cleveland {yes it's my new wild card city I will tell you more about why I love it later} hate NYC -really that much for a city with no truly amazing bakeries?- but there are so many cities that I am just sure I will hate... Miami, Tulsa, Dallas, however I may be wrong. I had never been to Columbus and it was on the list, but recent events took me there for a weekend and I was pleasantly surprised at the little charms this city had to offer. Great food, unique little shops.... this mural for one:

this alone makes this city great.

amazing galleries! all in a row {i may or may not have added to my collection}

and this lovely, Big Rock Little Rooster. Arguably one of the quaintest little boutique dress shops I have been in. I sucked in while zipping up that Vera Wang in the middle of the window and swoon....I look good in $13,000 of pale pink.

And with a view like this minutes from its booming metropolis, how could Columbus remain on my, "I hate you list"? (If this keeps happening I will NEVER go to Miami because I really don't want to like that city, and New York can't be the only one on the list)
