Rachel zoe and vogue magazine partyRachel Zoe and Vogue party at Shopsimon

 

 Last week I got invited by Simon Malls to attend Rachel Zoe x Vogue Magazine pop Up party at Roosevelt Field Mall along with other influencers. I made plan to have a quick breakfast with two other bloggers before we head over to The Rodger Hotel were the bus was picking us up and we arrived right on time to leave and at 11am we headed over to Roosevelt Field Mall in Garden City, Long Island-NY.

  Upon our arrival we were welcomed with 2 waitresses holding trays with options to glass of champagne and 3 different flavors of juice to choose from but of course I picked the champagne but later on I tried the delicious mango juice.  The area was beautifully decorated with furniture and accessories from Z GALLERY.  After getting comfortable and sip some drinks they gifted us with Rachel Zoe Box of Style (a subscription box) and soon we started doing the bloggers thing, take pictures, including selfies, Snapchat, Instastorie. Then the boss babe Rachel Zoe arrived and all the attention and eyes went to her. After a while and more pictures she headed over to the stage were many people were waiting to her presentation and interview. She amazing, besides been a celebrity stylist that created her own fashion brand that has a chic and polished style by the way, she is an example of smart, powerful and brave woman.

 It was a fun day, filled with fresh cocktails, surrounded by new fellow bloggers, see the beautiful clothing from Rachel’s latest collection as well as the latest collection of one of my favorite handbags brand: FURLA! Visit Jo Malone store, get some samples and take a mini flowers bouquet home. After Couple hours we returned to the bus and headed back to Manhattan. And the first thing I did when I got back home was to open my Rachel Zoe box of style to see what was inside. 🙂

The weather was so beautiful and I wanted to dress more comfortable so I paired a pair off burgundy legging with a burgundy sweater to create a mix of monochromatic outfit with a black leather jacket and low heel boots.

My big thanks to Roosevelt Field Mall , Rachel Zoe and Vogue Magazine for having me as a VIP guest and provide such a great time.

Hi gorgeous! Welcome to November… The weather is so gorgeous here and it was wonderful to get out and spend some time with friends and check out Fall collection on stores. Earlier last week I had the chance to stop by the Gigi New York pop up store located in the meatpacking district in Manhattan. For those that might not know Gigi new York  , They are a new handbag company with a generation of experience in another trade.

As soon as I arrived they offered me some champagne, and immediately I said YES! As you know making costumer feel special its a kill . The store is beautiful with handbags everywhere, and there is a cute and chic Fall display with a nice bench, perfect to snap some photos.

It was a special afternoon, I had the pleasure to meet and talk to Steve, their photographer who did some photoshoot and Rosella, their social media manager, who gave me a tour of the store and showed their latest line of Fall collection, leather colors, and styles.

 GiGi New York handbags is made of a high quality while price point is relatively affordable and everything is made here in the US. Take advantage of the holiday season discount where you can grab so many great items for yourself as well a fabulous Holiday gift to your besties.

Blogging require lots of time and advancing planning. Most people have no clue how much time goes into planning and creating a blog post from initial communication to styling and shooting to photo editing and writing, you’re looking at hours of work. In order to have  a balanced life and be able to accomplish other things I need to have sort of editorial calendar in advance and schedule is crucial and a planner is a must have. Although I know how important is to give myself a certain time chunks in the week I am still struggling with this because I am not following the rules. I try to do many things at once and I end up getting stressed and even frustrated. And the main reason is because I don’t plan my day, week, month in advance. I am returning to college in January 2017 and of course continuing blogging but I need to make sure my academic year gets prioritized. I definitely need to get organized and one of my goals is to be a better time manager: Creating a daily, week routine plan. Plan my day before it unfolds.

How to wear Indian Headdress for Halloween

indian headpieces costumeIndian headdress burning man

Hi everyone!

Halloween its around the corner… With the leaves on the trees starting to turn into beautiful colors, tailgate parties, football games, and so on so for and along with fall comes the excitement of Halloween festivities. Well, its all about that spooktacular weekend so have you decided what you’ll wear yet?

Today I want to show you my stunning feather INDIAN HEADRESS from Novum Crafts. 

                      I had found Nuvum Crafts online last year and recently in September I decided to order one piece to use on Eletric Zoo festival in NYC. It is really beautiful and I got so many complements, people used to ask to take picture with me haha. So Navum Crafts ended seen some of my pictures around Instagram and decided to contact me for collaboration. They sent over another Headdress of my choice (black one) in exchange for a review on my blog and of course I didn’t think twice before saying yes, yes, yes. So I just got my second headdress and yeahhh that’s what I’ll wear for Halloween next week.

I love the idea of wearing a headdress for a themed party. There are many many ways to create an unique costume with that beautiful feather headdress Bellow in this post you’ll see a selection of some outfits, make up and face painting for you to get inspired.

Also, headdresses are perfect pieces to create a last minute outfit not only for Halloween but for any other themed party and to use on festival seasons. Since it is such a statement piece it does stands out by itself, so if you are running out of time to elaborate your native Indian costume with serious face painting, you can just wear some plain outfit , put your headdress on and try to add some brush strikes across your chicks and chin and voilaaa you are ready to go.

With so many good parties around town specially in NYC you’d better dress to impress. Some of those parties are hard to get in and tickets get sold out fast, others are secret invite-only code and to access the hidden venue you need to wit until you see the Instagram’s geotag lol. I had been to some of those parties before and yes, they do offer an unique experience so let me tell you one thing for sure: its usually the most awaited party of the year and promises to put any previous Halloween bash you had planned to shame.

Indians are America’s Native people. From the Cherokee to the Apache tribes, they shared a similar way of life, living in teepees and hunting and gathering. Today, the only gathering you will do in an Indian Costume is gathering candy as you trick or treat. While many of our Native American outfits are created for authenticity, there are just as many that take the style and transform it into a fun Halloween costume.

With Halloween approaching you better hurry up and order your feather headdress. They guarantee international delivery in 3 business days . Head over to Novum Crafts website and pick your headdress

I hope you have the best Halloween ever!

Oi amores. Halloween está se aproximando e aqui nos Estados Unidos pricipalmente em Nova Iorque levamos esse assunto a sério. Então hoje minha dica é para ousar com fantasias diferentes, exuberantes e inicas usando um penacho indigena nas festas a fantasia. Esse penacho também fica lindo para usar nos festivais de músicas tipo Cochella. Como eu usei um penacho em um festival de Músicas daqui em Setembro resolvi dividir com voces algumas outras inspirações e também o site onde eu comprei. Eles também fazem entrega  internacional.  Visite: NOVUM CRAFTS  Todos os modelos estao com $20 de desconto.
