I kicked off New York Fashion Week with the blogger retreat event hosted by Nylon Magazine + GHG. The event took place on the roof of the Gansetvoort Hotel, my personal go-to spot in NYC. Bloggers are always rushing to different events for NYFW so it is great that Nylon + GHG created this relaxing event including giveaways, gifts, massages, hair styling and makeup services. I attended the event with my designer friends Kaleigh Guay of Eccentric Ego & Bianca Pearson of Clothes Horse and Trashy Bow Couture.

The makeup services were provided by Too Faced Makeup. There were two products in particular that were my favorite, the Instant Attitude Brow Lift and the 3*Way Lash Lining Tool. The Instant Attitude Brow Lift is a white thick pencil that is applied below the brows. It gives dimeintion to the brow. The 3*Way Lash Linning Tool was my absolute favorite product. The reason this product was so great becasue it solves a common problem most women have drawing a straight line eyelinner. There are three eyelinner pens attached which give the user an easier time to draw a more even line. Too Faced is sold at Sephora. Follow @toofaced for the latest and greatest makeup.

Dream Dry and Oribe haircare created beautiful hairstyles for bloggers. Our hair artist JAXX did an AMAZING job with our hair. My favorite hairstyles consist of braids so I was thrilled he specialized in them. My hair was slicked back with a french braid on top cascading down to a ponytail with a surrounding crown of braids. Bianca added volume with curls and Kaleigh added a side with a fishtail. I would highly recommend Jaxx to anyone who needs a gorgeous hairstyle. I was even featured on the Oribe instagram account.
