Dinner at NYC’s NoMad Hotel

For anyone that follows me on twitter or insta.gram, you may have saw the course by course play of my dinner at NoMad last night! Located on the ground floor of the NoMad Hotel in NYC’s Midtown, the fancy shmancy hot-spot restaurant is divided into five rooms, the Bar area and Library which has a limited food menu and are great choices for a drink date. And then the highly coveted full dining rooms, The Parlour, Atrium and Fireplace (which is more so used for private dining events). Each room has it’s own elegant and unique feel and decore based on it’s title.

My group started in the Bar, where I ordered a “Paris is Burning”, which combines gin with mezcal, St. Germain, pineapple and bitters. The time and care the bartenders take into preparing their drinks does not go unnoticed. It was delicious… I had three.

We then walked around the different spaces before being seated seated in the Parlor room…

Ordering time! The menu is divided by Snacks, Appetizers, Entrees, and Dessert — and naturally we needed to order from every list (in order). Starting with Snacks menu we opted for the Radishes, which are butter-dipped with flour de sel and melt in your mouth!

Then onto the Appetizers where we ordered the Radicchio salad with apples, basil & mozzarella, Snow Peas chiffonade with pancetta (on the side since I’m a peskatarian), and Egg poached with asparagus, quinoa & parmesan. The Snow peas we’re exceptional! They were finely cut into almost a chopped salad form and unbelievable refreshing in the light lemon dressing. The Egg was on

Stella & Dot Fall Collection

Earlier this week, I peaked the new fall collection for Stella & Dot and it’s totally glam! SO many fun statement pieces and a perfect mix of delicate everyday necklaces and big, bold, compliment-worthy items.

First off, here are my favorites: layering necklaces (especially the thin arrow “On The Mark” one, which previously was only available in gold and now comes in silver), the large woven “Tempest Necklace” that combines a steel chain, brass cupchain, distressed black acrylic stones and silk ribbon! The complementary bracelets in similar form (although I wouldn’t wear the two together — it’s a little too matchy matchy unless you’re wearing a very simple, preferably strapless dress). And the the rock-glam “Lillith Fringe” dangly earrings are high on my list!

Send a card with the justWink app…


I’m a card person. I get it from my mom, who actually has a collection of them. Whenever she sees a great card, she purchases it and adds it to the collection so whenever she has an occasion warranting the perfect card, she’s fully stocked. And why? Because a good card make someone’s day! While most of us will pick up a card on our way to a friends birthday, housewarming, wedding or otherwise in-person event, it feels like the act of mailing cards is on the decline. That’s where the justWink app comes in.

You may know justWink from their fun and quirky cards sold nationally at drugstores, well the greeting cards company has created an app that lets you send a card via text, facebook, email, twitter and even mail! Plus you can set it to sink with Facebook for birthday reminders making it that much easier to tell someone you’re thinking about them on their day.


To learn more about how you can Buy Real Phentermine Online have a look at this buy Phentermine website to buy Phentermine online

Here’s how it works: Smartphone and ipad owners download the justWink app. From there you can browse cards based on different occasions and pick your favorite!

My beau is currently driving cross country so I thought a card to let him know I’m thinking of him would be a nice touch — and what better way to say that then with two ice cream cones making out?

Card picked, clicked “send me now!”  From there you can click on the different fields to personalize it with a picture and message.

I uploaded a pic of the two of us from my iPhone, typed in a message, and signed. Voila!

I then hit “send!” And it gives you the option to email, facebook, twitter, text mst, real mail ($2.99)… I opted for email and look at how cute it is when it goes into the recipients inbox!!!

What’s also awesome is that you get an email in your inbox once the person you sent it to opens it. The app is incredibly well thought out and user friendly — I rated it 5 stars in the App Store as did the other 137 people who reviewed it before me. My only feedback for justWink is more cards options, more card options! Although they seem to be adding to the assortment regularly, I’m just impatient.

So get downloading and let someone you think is special know that you’re thinking of them!

ABOUT: justWink is an awesome collection of greeting cards that feature bold colors, adorable illustrations, and witty copy for every occasion.  The combination of whimsical unicorns, sweater-wearing cats, and (of course) bacon with realistic, yet playful messages create an unexpected experience for all.  And guess what?  Each card has a QR code and URL on the back that directs you to a free justWink app for iPhone and Android phones.  Download the app and you can send digital cards via text, email or Facebook.  For more information and where to find justWink cards on shelf, visit www.just-wink.com or www.facebook.com/justwink.

Taraji P. Henson and Adrienne Bailon celebrate first anniversary of Courvoisier Rosé at NYC’s TOY

On Thursday night, Taraji P. Henson, Adrienne Bailon, Jennifer Williams, Kat Deluna (and the Pretty Connected team!) celebrated the first anniversary of Courvoisier Rosé at NYC hot spot, TOY in the Meatpacking District. 

The bartenders served up refreshing Courvoisier Rosé cocktails while guests enjoyed h’orderves by Chef Doron Wong and music spun by DJ Brooklyn Dawn. Courvoisier Rosé is delicious! And certainly a summery, refreshing approach to cognac that is crafted with a blend of Courvoisier and premium French red wine grapes. And at 18% Alc/Vol, in comparison to it’s 40% Courvoisier original counterpart, it goes down easier and tastes closer to a Rosé then cognac.

Somehow when the cupcakes came out and the celebration kicked off, I was cornered in the back of the bar, while the celebs of the evening we’re surrounded by cameraman. And as a result I woke up to a swarm of the first two images picked up all over the internet with my face piercing out of the back ground.

{Taraji P. Henson celebrates first anniversary of Courvoisier Rosé — see me in the background?}

{Adrienne Bailon, Jennifer Williams, Kat Deluna cheers Courvoisier Rosé with cupcakes! — what about now, see me now? }

Since I was hanging out next to Adrienne Bailon, I couldn’t resist asking the Cheetah Girl who her outfit was by. She was so sweet, and excused herself to go have her friend check her tag and came back up to me to report it’s an ALC onesie — so cute! Love the back on it!

And on my first day of rocking my Modify watch (I literally got it in the mail that morning), I ran into the brands token marketing guy and could not resist an impromptu Modify Watches represent photo!

Modify watches, Courvoisier Rosé, awkwardly showing up in the background of photos on multiple celebrity sites… what more can a girl ask for out of a night? In the words of Busta Rhymes, P. Diddy, and Pharrell, Pass the Courvoisier…

 

Taking time with Celebrity Hair Stylists Cherry Petenbrink and Mika Fowler

What happens when two of Beverly Hills most renowned celebrity hairstylists hit the NYC scene? I get one killer makeover and the opportunity to talk hair with two of the industry tops: Cherry Petenbrink and Mika Fowler.

{After a day with Cherry Petenbrink and Mika Fowler, I could be a hair model}

 Cherry Petenbrink, is a former salon owner turned celebrity stylist and color specialist– we’ve all seen her work on the big screen as the color consultant for the Hunger Games! Cherry also conducts regular workshops and trainings in the industry and is a member of the Joico’s elite Color Competency Team and Guest Artist for the brand.

Having dark hair sans grays, I’m challenged with limited color options. Cherry encouraged my pursuit of an Ombre (which will continue to trend through the fall/winter season) and introduced me to “Flash effects”, which offers a lightened effect that brightens the hair internally for a warmer softer look. Both are modern, with some edge while still managing to be polished and great for any age.

{With Cherry Petenbrink — Can you see my “Flash Effect”?}

What I appreciate about both color options is how well they compliment each other and require zero maintenance — they can grow out naturally without having to be redone, making them a very budget friendly option. Cherry’s trick when performing an Ombre or Flash Effect is to not work on a horizontal line (which just weighs hair down). Instead, Cherry works at a vertical
