Life in New York City
Although I have visited many times, nothing compares to living here. New York City has been an absolute ball. From 5th Ave to Soho, Canal Street to Seaport there is a niche, district and cultural aspect for everyone. Working at a beauty, fashion and luxury lifestyles PR firm is incredible, and not only have I had a blast with friends, co workers and strangers but I have learned an incredible amount. Meeting with clients is very exciting, nerve-wracking and totally cool at the same time. At Haute PR we work together to help emerging brands get buzz and also older brands spice things up! CEO Robin Kassner has built her reputation based on results and at such a young age, should be praised!
As if I even need to say the shopping here is unbelievable... it’s unbelievable! Here are a few of my favourite purchases that I’ve made here! Enjoy!
Huge Lips, Skinny Hips
This isn’t your ordinary lipgloss ladies; this is a plumper that is fully equipped with the appetite suppressant hoodia! I am sure you have all heard the study that an average woman consumes anywhere between 481-1,083 tubes of lipstick a year (www.thatsfit.com) and it is likely that this is why Karen Robinovitz created Huge Lips Skinny Hips lipgloss. Karen is no stranger to the fashion world, and her fashionista novels are a hit amongst top designers including Michael Kors and DVF.
Does it work? You’ll have to try it out yourself! But I certainly love this gloss!
Twist & Pout
I’ll never forget when my mom placed two colourful; golf ball shaped spheres in my hand and said “here’s a little treat!” I had no idea what it was but I was certainly intrigued. She twisted the little sphere and to my surprise it was in fact a lip balm! Twist & Pout (formerly Ballmania) creates a new collection every 120 days, to keep you and your lips happy! There are tons of different looks including jungle, travel, retro and charity themes to choose from!
Hermes belt, need I say more? Black and sleek with a gold H as the finishing touch, making any plain outfit that much classier. Love it!
For my little girls (my two puppies Kenzie and Kelly) I stopped into Henri Bendel’s, where I held my own desires back, and purchased them adorable porcelain and Bendels embellished doggie bowls and two squeaky toys. For Kelly, she received “Puptron”, a hilarious spin off of the Patron tequila and Kenzie received a ice cream inspired “Chewy Garcia” a play on Ben & Jerry’s classic flavour Cherry Garcia.
At Saks, they had the most adorable dog beds, “Sniffany and Co.” In shape of a tiffany’s box, “Chewy Vuitton” a NYC Taxi cab and more! I love this city for loving their fashion and their dogs as much as I do!
