Nescac in New York City - Dinner @ Cata and drinks @ Mister H (Host Committee)

Hola amigos. You guys won't believe me, but I actually went out this past weekend. 

October Birch Box - Beauty Delivered

I figured this would be the perfect month to share my BirchBox with you because, this October makes it exactly 1 year since I have had my BirchBox Subscription. In 2011, I went to a Baby Buggy event to celebrate its 10th Anniversary during “A Night of Comedy with Jerry Seinfeld & Friends” at Avery Fisher Hall at Lincoln Center in New York City. As I was walking out, I got a free BirchBox at the door. Little did I know, this little box changed my life!

I wait for my Birchbox every month with bated breath! Birchbox is a $10 monthly subscription service — you fill out a beauty profile, and then every month, a little box of high-end beauty samples from the likes of Kerastase, Laura Mercier and Nars arrive at your door. This company has revolutionized how woman sample and buy their essential cosmetics.Their YouTube channel offers product demos, and the website has tips and tutorials to help you "discover products you love."

Birchbox is owned by the same women who own Gilt Group AND Rent The Runway and they are smart as fuck. Katia Beauchamp and Hayley Barna met at Harvard Business School. They inspire me to become a power betch myself ;) 

Chewy French Almond Macaroons - SUPER EASY RECIPE!

God I hate Wednesdays! But I bet these bad boys will surely brighten up your Hump Day Blues...

Smorgasburg NYC @ Brooklyn Bridge Park!

Brooklyn Cool, before Brooklyn was Cool. Just in time for lunch, I have some food porn for you here. Yesterday, Allan and I were supposed to go apple picking with Leo but were running a bit late, and so we decided to go to Smorgasburg instead at the Brooklyn Bridge Park.

I used to live around the park in Brooklyn Heights, so it was quite nostalgic and heart warming to come back to the neighborhood. The food market used to be at the Tobacco Warehouse but recently moved to Pier 5.

We walked around with warm apple cider and tried different kinds of food from all over the world. From jerked chicken to vegan vegetable pie, they've got something for everyone. 

Are yous ready? I have way too many pictures to too show yous ;)

Live Q&A with Bobbi Brown + Smoky Holiday Looks with Rogelio Reyna

"I go for the girls who photograph well and look different. I don't need a girl who looks like Barbie."

- Bobbi Brown on October 10 @ The Bobbi Brown University NYC

Aloha my Sugar Toots. Sorry for the lack of posts this week. I have been super busy with class/work/life and was just trying to get my shit together, I'm sure you can understand.

Any-who, I'm back and have something just fabulous to share with you.

Yesterday, Ginger Spice and I went to a super-ultra-fab Bobbi Brown event hosted by Sephora @ the Bobbi Brown University in Soho. It was an event with a live Q&A session with the one and only Bobbi Brown, and master class tutorial on Smoky Holiday looks with Makeup Artist, Rogelio Reyna.

We also got to take home a full size Old Hollywood palette before it even hit the stores!
