Brooklyn Bridge Never Gets Old

Some things never get old, like the Brooklyn Bridge. Last year around the same time I woke up at 6am to catch the sunrise on the bridge (see that post here) and I just did it again! Early morning is the best time to go if you want to avoid the crowd and get some decent photos. There was still a decent amount of joggers and bikers but if you are patient enough you will get brief moments where no one will be in your shot. Also, if you are shooting on the Manhattan side facing Brooklyn, the morning sun will be perfectly backlit behind you. It was the morning of 9/11 and there was definitely some intensity in the air. And I thought I would be slightly patriotic by wearing this red silky top by Lovers + Friends from Revolve with tiny star print. I rarely wear red but I adore this top... the ruffles, the asymmetrical sleeves, and the tied details around the neckline. I styled it with a pair of denim from PacSun, a chained mini bag by Henri Bendel, and these fabulous black and white leather booties with the coolest heels by Zvelle. It's been well over two weeks since these photos were taken but I tend to save the best for last so there you have it...
