Third Time's A Charm! FIT Graduation!

Yesterday, I graduated from The Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC, 

this is my third post-high school graduation. 

I have a Bachelors of Science in Biology from Rider University, class of 2010

& a Masters in Teaching from Rider University, class of 2014:

& now, I have an Associates in Fashion Business Management from FIT, class of 2018.

I decorated my cap for the first time: 

Lots of leopard for the trip to graduation in NYC at Radio City Music Hall! 

Thankful that my family came to celebrate, 

I never expected anyone to come, 

I mean how many graduations can you sit through... 

I thought this cap "I can't believe we all wore the same outfit" was hilarious!

After graduation we ate dinner at Don Antonio 

I had the Burrata Roberto pizza:

& a Tutti Frutti drink: Bacardi Gold Rum, raspberries, fresh lime, topped with pineapple puree

it was so good! 

My crazy sisters rode a bull and had lots of dranks when we were at graduation:

We went back downtown to take some pics at FIT

We went for some drinks at Oscar Wilde, 

I wanted to check out Patent Pending speakeasy but it couldn't handle our big group, 

{we roll deep}

My nails {Lottie London LL086 Riot! via Ipsy} matched my gown, unintentionally: 

Now I get to enjoy the beautiful flowers, relax a little, and look for a job! 

I love this old post from hardstark on Instagram: 

& this one from girlboss on Instagram:

This post is better late than never, as is this career change.
