Month: May 2016

This past Saturday I decided to attend The Hue Affair. I didn’t purchase my ticket until the day prior and I still was unsure of if I was going to attend. Saturday morning I decided I needed to get out and network, make some connections and meet some new people. Next came the hard part. What was I to wear? I literally decided on my attire in 10 minutes. As usual I started with my shoes, everything came together.

Let me say, this event exceeded my expectations. I met some great people. Had small chatter with some “well known” natural hair gurus, and did a little shopping. They has some amazing vendors. The vibe was amazing, fun, exciting and comfortable. I ended the day with listening to some amazing information from Christina Brown ( Founder of LoveBrownSugar LLC)  Here is a little recap of the event, BUT first… here is what I wore.

I had no clue what to wear, I know I wanted to throw on this sleeveless jacket from boohoo ( no longer available). I paired it with a basic gold tee, a jacket from my boutique ( no longer available) Myseleganceboutique.com. I also paired it with a faux leather pencil skirt ( also not available) from my boutique. I ended the outfit with last year Justfab shoes.

I spent a lof of my time speaking to many of the vendors, meeting some natural hair b/vloggers and meeting a few new people. Below are some of the wonderful vendors and a few of the great b/vloggers I chatted with. The day ended with some amazing information from Christian Brown of LoveBrownSugar. I had an overall amazing time.

This past Saturday there was an event in NYC called Cocktails with Claire. I went last year and met some great people. This year around Claire ( Owner of Fashion Bomb Daily) decided to do it a little different. She started out with a brunch ( that i didn’t attend but really wish I did). Then she had a sip/shop/ and mingle. There were some amazing vendors, beautiful people, and the food and drinks were great. The Wonderful thing about it is that I got to link up with my girls, some of which I didn’t see in a little while. I had an absolutely amazing time catching up and networking with some new people.
