'Illusions' of Diner en Blanc

This past Saturday I attended Diner en Blanc in DC for the second year. Diner en Blanc was started in Paris in the late 80s and is essentially a fancy picnic where everything you wear and bring is white, and you cart all of your supplies with you (table, chairs, food, decor, etc). Diner en Blanc is know for its over the top reputation and is one of the best events for people watching in all of DC, as people go all out with their personal style and looks. Given this fact, I kn

Going Custom with Custom Ink

As someone who absolutely loves hosting and attending events, I always think of details that will make for better experiences. Things like the event theme, food and drink, timing, entertainment, and guest gifts all come into play and consideration when I’m starting to plan for an event. Every month I plan an event for DC area influencers, coined Bubbles & Bloggers, to come together in an inclusive environment and network. I try to change up the event activity every month to d

An Undeniable Anniversary Party!

I am always up for shopping local. In fact, if presented the opportunity to shop a local brand or mainstream brand, I will almost always choose local. This goes for all shopping, but specifically regarding local boutiques, as I really love to support the local fashion community.

May First Friday at Fia's Fab Finds

Tomorrow is May 1. Seriously, where has the time gone? Has the N'SYNC "It's Gonna be May" meme popped up in your social media feeds yet? I'm betting that meme is going to be all over social media today and tomorrow.... Speaking of social media, I want to rave a bit <again> about the power of Instagram. Instagram has introduced me to many amazing people and brands. Today's story is about how I came to meet Fia, the owner of Fia's Fab Finds, a size inclusive consignment boutiqu

LOFT Plus Pop-Up Party Recap

By now I’m sure you’ve seen my recent post about LOFT. LOFT has been a store I have shopped at for many years, and their launch of the plus line is legit life changing for me. I can now fit into items that were off limits like pants and jeans, and the new styles fit me perfectly. Last Thursday night I co-hosted the LOFT Plus Pop-Up Party at the Tysons Corner location. This event is one of eight in their pop-up events around the country. Currently the plus line is only availab

LOVE LOFT

For my entire life, sizing has been a style challenge for me. Before I really identified with plus apparel, I would find myself shopping in stores desperate to find something that fit. I had a small list of go-to stores that I would frequent and rely on to still fit my curves with their sizing standards. One of these stores was LOFT. I have personally been a LOFT shopper for many, many years. While I've had issues with sizing for some of their pieces, LOFT was one of the onl

Fab Friday: Rebelle Con

I honestly don’t even know how to begin this post. This post makes me emotional and I have so many thoughts that I want to get out effectively, but I have so much to say and its coming out like word vomit…so, I’m just going to go with it…. Starting with this: Last weekend was seriously a dream come true. Last weekend I attended the first ever Rebelle Con, a women empowerment conference for entrepreneurs who are looking to chase their goals. The conference revolved around four

Beyond the Little Black Dress - October 7

In 2015, I had the honor of attending the Beyond the Little Black Dress fashion show hosted by the Alliance Française . I was a volunteer for the event and took over their Instagram handle to cover the show. It was that year that I was introduced to AF, and the magic of French culture in DC. You see, I always loved Paris, but the charm of an organization such as the Alliance Française was new to me. I was mesmerized by the Beyond the Little Black Dress show, and it is one of

Fashion NoVA

For the record, this week has been one of the hardest to cope with. Its the week back to reality after NYFW, and I have a serious fashion hangover. Going from the stylish NYC streets and energy of NYFW to the rat race of DC, my heart and mind have both been longing for the style and buzz that embodies fashion week. Luckily, I have a light at the end of the tunnel. This Saturday I'll be walking in the Fairfax Corner Fashion NoVA event and fashion show. If that isn't a fashion

Fab Friday: Golden Samovar Restaurant

Two weekends ago I was invited to a tasting dinner at Golden Samovar Restaurant in the Rockville Town Square for a tasting menu. My friend and blog partner, Rita of Rituska Inc, is friends with the owners of Golden Samovar and we made a double date out of the evening and brought our husbands for a fun night out. I had never been to the Rockville Town Square, so it was a nice change of scenery for the night. Side note- who knew Rockville Town Square had a Vogue mural!? My outf

Wedding Guest Chic

As we approach wedding season for the spring and summer months, there is one thing we always have to ask ourselves when attending a wedding- what am I going to wear?! I recently attended a wedding, with the request of semiformal, and had the idea to write up a cheat-sheet of sorts, based on wedding attire request. If theres one thing I take serious, its the requested attire for weddings. I've been a bride, so I know the drill. No matter the attire request, I always keep in mi

Fashion for Lost Dog & Cat Foundation Recap

WHEW! $415.80 <----do you know what that is? That is the amount of money raised for Lost Dog & Cat Rescue Foundation from the event I hosted with ELOQUII at the beginning of the month. That is so amazing! I want to personally thank each and every one of you who came out to support the event and help raise money for the animals. The event itself was amazing.

Welcome to the Wake Up

Collaboration. You've heard the word here on BITD a few times now. Today's collab is a whole new perspective, heated around the upcoming MEET THE CURATOR "WELCOME TO THE WAKEUP"event happening next Friday, April 21. Before I go into event specifics, I want to highlight what "Welcome to the Wake Up" means. The "Wake Up" is symbolic of what made you take a leap of faith to go after your goals and dreams- an awakening of self. This collaboration was all about the coming together

I can't say this enough- I LOVE ELOQUII. Seriously. I will sing it from the rooftops for all to hear- and I'm not even a singer.

So, today's FAB Friday is my love note to ELOQUII, plus I'm throwing in some details of the Fashion for Lost Dog & Cat Rescue Foundation event I'm hosting with ELOQUII on April 6.
