LuckyFabb Fashion & Beauty Conference 2013 Day 1

Happy Friday Sweets! 

Before I even start talking about how amazing day 1 of LuckyFabb was, I have to start by telling you that I wasn't happy with my outfit choice.  I ordered a top to go with these pants and it didn't arrive on time.  Of course, it didn't!  I honestly didn't have a plan b so I literally through this on last minute. 

The top that I had ordered was a soft pink chiffon so I thought ok lets stay with that color scheme, and I went with this pink JLo sweater.  I honestly through the vest on because I didn't want to have to carry a jacket around all day, and it was pretty cold in the morning.  I now know that there is a coat check so next year that won't be a problem.  Even though I wasn't 100% happy with my outfit, I still thought I looked pretty cute!           

Pink Sweater: Jennifer Lopez for Kohl's

Vest: Mossimo (Target)

Burgundy Cords & booties: H & M

Ok lets talk LUCKYFABB!  I don't even know where to begin, so lets start in the beginning.  LuckyFabb is a fashion and beauty conference held in NYC over a two day period. I've never seen so many fashionable and beautiful ladies all in one place.  The minute I walked in and saw all the fabulosity, I knew it was going to be an awesome day.
 

All Access baby!

 Eva Chan was our first guest speaker.  She's the Editor In Chief of Lucky Magazine. 

 Eva Mendez looking gorgeous.  She has a beautiful new line at New York & Company. 
 

Eva asked Eva....hahaha!  What her go to piece was and she said "a scarf!"  She borrowed someones and of course, tied it up in this fab updo in less than 2 minutes. With no mirror and looked this fab!  I wouldn't have looked this if I had 2 mirrors!  You go Eva! 

Kate Bosworth also spoke to us about her line with Topshop.  I died over her metallic skirt!

Alisa Gould–Simon- Founder of Pose, Gabi Gregg from GABIFRESH and Erica Domesek-  P.S. I Made This. 

Panelists Lindsey Calla- Fashion Blogger and Stylist at Saucy Glossie, Amber Venz -Blogger and founder of Reward Style, Mattias Swenson- CEO of Bloglovin and Hayley Phelan- Fashion News Editor for Lucky. 

After a morning of panels which were filled with laughs and blog talk, we had lunch!

Chicken salad to go!  Thank you Lucky!  Of course I had lunch with my favorite ladies!

 Dhruvi Stilettos & Sequins

 I couldn't wait to meet my LA girls!  Love them!  Paulina Lil Bits Of Pau and Daisy Daisy's Fashion Garden

After lunch I headed to the "gifting suite" for some goodies!  Lucky I was able to score "All Access"

 ModCloth

 L'OCCITANE hooked it up with one of their fabulous scents.  I've been wearing it ever since.

 Galian New York. 
I was gifted the fabulous black suede bag in front with the tassle.  I wanted the green but it was all gone! :(

Quinn I LOVE my scarf!

 Thank you Yosi Samra.  I LOVE my new flats! 

Kendra Phillips jewelry was so pretty!  I went with a cuff.

Julie Vos was stunning!  I went with the short chunky necklace on the left.  It was so hard to decide!

All for me!  Cheesin from ear to ear!

If you attend LuckyFabb, I suggest you go with the All Access pass. 

There was also another suite where all that attended could go and get their nails done with Nintendo, Charming Charlie was there giving away some awesome jewelry.  They had photo booths, contest, giveaways!  Oh Pantene, Paige Denim and a huge charging station.  Bloggers can't live without their phones!  Lol!   

I need a cord!  I need power!  Do you have an Iphone 4 or 5?  When I get to 20% then you can use it.  The phone madness was serious.  Luckily my friend Robyn let me borrow her extra battery pack.  Thanks love!

Mario Mani?  Yes please!

Photo booth fun with Pantene

We ended our day 1 with cocktails and appetizers. 

Lucky Magazine really went all out for us.  I had an awesome day.  I couldn't wait for day 2! 

The fun didn't stop there!  Lissette from Raven Fashion is friends with  Elizabeth from Fashion Climaxx and she invited us to her showroom.  She was so sweet!  Thanks for having me Elizabeth.

Loved this soft pink dress, so sweet.

My favorite shoe in the showroom.  I would probably break a tooth or something in that heel, but I still LOVE It!

I wish all my Thursdays could be this fun!  My feet hurt, I was starving, and I wouldn't have it any other way.  It was a long but fab day and I couldn't wait for day numero dos! 

Have a wonderful weekend!  Stay tuned for day 2 of LuckyFabb!

Happy Monday!  Sike!  Wishing it was still the weekend :(

I had an amazing time at Luckyfabb!  It truly is FABB!  I met such wonderful young ladies.  All in all it was an awesome experience.  I'm going to try and post both days later on in the week.  On Friday night after Luckyfabb, I had the pleasure of attending the Lulu's blogger meet up at STK in the city.  What a lovely time!  Thank you Stephanie! 

We had a chance to view most of their fall pieces and WOW, I loved everything!  From leather to chunky knits, it was all fab!  We were gifted a few pieces from the collection and this leather trench was screaming, come get me MEL!  I think it's hilarious that lulu's named it "special agent," because I truly did feel very CIA in this jacket.  Lol!  I usually take forever to blog new pieces, I hate wasting an outfit but I couldn't wait to wear this!  

Thank you, thank you Lulu's for an amazing evening and my fabulous outerwear!  You guys rock!  

TTYL!
