Rebecca Minkoff Sample Sale



So yesterday November 12th was my first time ever attending a sample sale in my life! It was so exciting, and I was anxious all day. Both me and my friend went after our internship and finally got to the line after a few wrong turns - oops. Anyways, we waited for about 45 minutes and finally entered the sale and soon began searching for the perfect bag. Usually with my luck I can never find anything, but today was my lucky day because I found such a gorgeous bag! It was originally retailed at $695, but I ended up paying about $270. I honestly just love this bag, it definitely was worth it! This was my first, but certainly not my last sample sale!

Pamper Me Fabulous!

While searching Google for some NYC events, I came across the ultimate girl's day - Pamper Me Fabulous! Just the name alone makes me want to go. Well anyways this event is definitely a day to indulge yourself with friends in a total mind, body, and soul experience. The entire day is filled with energetic workouts, shopping, spa treatments, health and beauty. You can also indulge in some champagne, desserts, and receive a fabulous gift bag! Honestly, I don't think any girl would want to pass this up, because I sure wouldn't. So don't forget Sunday October 7th from 11am-5pm at the Metropolitan Pavilion. Plus what's also even better is that it's only $40 - so there is no reason why not to come!
Buy tickets here.

NYFW: Alice + Olivia SS13 Presentation

Monday September 10 was the Alice + Olivia S/S '13 Presentation, held at Center 548. The night was filled with music by Mia Moretti and Caitlin Moe. The bar was stocked by Belvedere Vodka, with signature Alice + Olivia drinks. Magnum mini ice cream, cake pops, and mini cupcakes were served as treats for the guests.

There were also some familiar faces spotted during the night. Lauren Conrad, Jamie Chung, Odette Annable, AnnaSophia Robb, Holland Roland, Elisabeth Moss, Natalia Kills, and Neon Hitch were just some of the few I saw.

The Alice + Olivia Spring 2013 collection was one of my favorites. There was so much detailing incorporated into each design - ranging from lace, sequins, embroidery, beading, and the actual color scheme. The gowns and dresses were to die for! I want them all, but my favorite one is the blue ombre gown below - it's just a gorgeous dress and I love the blue ombre color.
