Hey all-
Can you believe that its only a month away from Christmas and less then a week from Thanksgiving? Time really flies. I remember being a child and thinking it took forever for the holidays to come and now as an adult it seems to go FAR TOO FAST! Where does the time go?
On Saturday a group of fellow bloggers, my sister from another mister and I were invited to Saks 5th Avenue for a holiday trends presentation. (so fell in love with a new brand called Parker but you will see why later) This was beyond fun. The ladies at Saks were unbelievably friendly and Julianne, the selling manager of the Contemporary Collections not only is such a doll but also seems to be the coolest boss ever! There is nothing better in my opinion then people being excited about their product and these ladies made us even more excited about the collections. Saks should be honored to have these females working for them!! No lie!! But really, how can you not have a great time looking at the new sparkly collections while imbibing on cocktails and munching on yummy snacks? I had football all day and had 27 minutes to get ready, hair and all… thank goodness for easy, breezy lil black dresses 🙂
p.s. I want to send very, very, VERY special thank you’s to Shakira from Style Atelier, Sade from 9 to Fly, Danielle Ford, Jleh my sister from another mister, Rian, my boyfriend/love of my life and the lovely ladies at Saks ( Ashley, Julianne, and Kathryn)
Enjoy…..
