#SNOWMANnewyork A/W 2014/15 Collection - Yes, Simply Irresistible
It was one of those hot summer days and I was doing my best to make my way through the crowd down 5th Avenue. The stillness of the air and the suffocating heat were in stark contrast to what I’d experienced during my first 'chilly' days that I'd spent in New York City a few months back.

I was wearing my shortest shorts and see-through top and couldn’t wait to enter the ‘SNOWMAN showroom’ and get a peek at their A/W 2014/15 collection. Could you imagine - reviewing winter jackets during NY’s summer heat wave? And as a bonus - no, I had no idea what to expect. But you know, I have this peculiarity - I’ve never been a fan of winter jackets. Ever.  I’ve always preferred to rock my leather autumn one with a fur sleeveless coat above it. I've always perceived the winter garments as the enemy that craves to make you look bulky and weird. And, honestly, my petite figure, and *sigh* lack of height never really helped in my endeavour to find the perfect winter coat.

When T. and I entered the big bright room I could clearly see the racks of jackets placed right before me. Have I ever told you how much love I have  I towards 42^nd street? I’ve been getting off the subway at Central Station and every single time I'd just stop right there at the middle of its main hall. Yes, I'd just stop and observe. Lean on the railing and discern the rushing people - each and every one rocking their unique style, walking pace, and beautiful facial expressions, and yet all of them unified by one and single thing - New York - its energy, vibrancy, and uniqueness.

When I was going through the racks I felt as If I was transported back in the middle of Central Station. The jackets encapsulated the spirit of the typical New Yorker trying to make his way during the morning rush hour. The tailored & smart jackets reminded me of the countless of hours I'd spent observing and getting inspired by the passing by strangers all whom illuminating their distinctive nature.

Be it yellow, black, or leopard printed - the #SNOWMANnewyork winter coats gave off this inimitable ambiance... each and every piece evoking a spectacular and indescribable feeling that you could get only when you join the typical New Yorker in his brisk walking pace.

I grabbed a short white cropped jacket and couldn't believe how 'myself' I felt while wearing it. I didn't feel bulky, yet I did feel the warmness I'd seek for during the chilly winter days. I couldn't believe that I'd finally found a brand that had actually created a jacket. Excuse me. THE JACKET for me. Tailored. Light & Simply Irresistible. 

Ah! By the end of the experience I couldn't help but smile. No, I wasn't a New Yorker, I was a Bulgarian girl going through the clothes and deciding on my favourite designs. And, you know, lovely, I felt as if I was really part of it all. Part of New York. Am I going to come back again to the City? Am I going to get a peek behind the scenes of its boutiques? Who knows... But what I surely knew was that for a few seconds while checking myself in the mirror, for a fleeting moment, I felt like a New Yorker!

Thank you SNOWMAN New York for making me feel like that. For helping me feel that I belonged and hopefully soon enough I'll be rocking your winter jackets Downtown headed towards my favourite coffee shop just right next to Union Square.

If you, lovely, are curious to find out more about SNOWMAN New York and their latest vibrant collection head over to their website and get a sneak peek. And yes, they are Simply Irresistible.
