It was my third night in NYC and Caitlin and I had been invited out to have Chinese for dinner with Jessica from Too Many Sequins and a few of her friends. I’ll admit I haven’t talked to that many international bloggers, just the few who have been around about as long as I have but none of them were attending FFFWeek. It was up to me to put on a brave face, admit I didn’t know a single thing about anyone at the table, make a good impression and have a good time… but that’s how new friendships are made right?
Closet Confessions, Miss Cherry Lipz, Jasifers Lion Club,
Too Many Sequins, Sticky Sweet Danish, Masque Mag.
I don’t even like Chinese, I would have preferred an authentic italian meal (never got the chance to do that) but I wasn’t really there for the food anyway. We laughed, talked, took photos and I nervously slurped down two $5 Long Island Iced Teas thanks to happy hour. I also thought my fortune cookie was the best.

I think I sat on the floor of my studio for a solid hour deciding whether I should take my Libby Bag or my new Safari bag to New York. The Libby goes with so many different outfits because of it’s grey colour but the Safari was less rigid due to it’s soft soft purple leather and no one else would have a bag like it. I received so many compliments, I know first hand how hard it is for bloggers to find fashionable camera bags and it’s nice to have such trust from companies to allow me to flaunt their bags blog online and in person.
Be sure to go and check out the blogs created by these lovely ladies, total gems!

You’re looking quite slim in that outift! Beautiful. :-)
love that cardi……..and I agree re: camera bag. Took me awhile before I decided on the one that I liked.
This was such a great night. :D Love the pics.
I didn’t know much about anyone either before we met up, haha, I felt so bad that I wasn’t more updated about other bloggers. but as soon as we met we just clicked. :)
You looked great in your outfit!
Oh I love Chinese food. LOVE! :D
Looking nice there! You all look so happy.
It was such a great night! One of the best in NYC <3
I’m not a fan of chinese food either and people always think it’s strange.
Oh that skirt is amazing! I need to invest in a new pencil skirt, my last one is waaaay too big on me. Shall have to check out Virtu!
