Last night, I had the pleasure of attending the “Ready. Set. Finished.” Ann Taylor and Birchbox event, hosted by Jessica of Bows and Sequins. It was such a blast! While sipping champagne (and then smashing it on the ground… yep; I was that girl, haha!), I shopped and chatted it up with some of my favorite New York City bloggers such as Rose of Blonde in this City, Julia of Lemon Stripes, and Shira of A Sequin Love Affair. (Actually, I didn’t do very much chatting, as I have a nasty case of laryngitis. But everyone was very understanding. Thanks, girls!) I also met some other fabulous bloggers for the first time, like Christine of Petite Hues and Rebecca of Preppy Panache. Be sure to check out their blogs!

Mitch and Shawn (our good friend and my website manager) came along, too. So funny. They spent a lot of time in the photo booth with champagne. I have some very supportive guys in my life! ;)
After the event, Mitch, Shawn, Jessica, Rose and I all headed over to Five Napkin Burger in Union Square for dinner and drinks. What a great way to end the week! So nice to get out of the apartment after being sick for so long, too!
(P.S. — Kind of looks like I’m standing in traffic here, but I swear: the white car behind me is parked! ;))
