Accessorize for Motherhood with Pamela Pekerman! PLUS, An iPad Case Giveaway!

Last week, I had the pleasure of stepping out in style (always!) when I attended Accessorize for Motherhood hosted by Pamela Pekerman. Pamela is a Lifestyle Correspondent, Host, Accessory Expert, and Spokesperson (talk about multi-tasking!) and she was able to provide guests to the event with the latest and greatest spring trends designed to keep us sane, sexy, and sassy.

Located at the Bollare NYC Showroom, the event featured hairdos by Conair, gel manicures by Senses NY Salon and Spa, mimosas, mingling, and all things accessories.

I was feeling particularly flirty that day/evening so I wore a classy and equally sexy black dress that featured a V-neckline. I covered the dress with a bold pink blazer, and finished the look off with patterned tights, fun heels, and natural makeup. Shout out to the gorgeous Nichelle (aka @StyleMom) for taking this shot of me!

The fashion was on-point, but can we talk about the beauty treatments for a mere moment? I usually wear my hair straight, but I'm totally feeling the loose curls in my hair that was created by the Conair Infiniti Pro curling iron. Are you?



And, it's official... my latest beauty obsession is the gel manicure. It's like magic! It's been five days and my manicure looks as good as new. I've cooked, cleaned, done laundry, and did some other questionable things, and the manicure is still going strong -- no chipping, no dullness. It's totally giving me life right now!

I'm not one to brag, but the gift bag was pretty dope. But because I love you (and I'm all about sharing the wealth), I'm giving away one of the sweet items from the gift bag -- a FREE personalized iPad case from Confections! Visit the website and you'll see that you can (1) chose from many different styles, and (2) personalize the case by adding your name on it. Pretty neat, huh? Just leave a comment below and one person will be chosen via random.org on Friday, April 6th.

Who's ready for a fashionable, fabulous, and delicious week?!

{Disclaimer: Event attendees received a gift bag at the event, including the Conair Infiniti Pro and a Senses NY Salon and Spa gift card. It was a pretty big bag. Later that night, I had a first date with this guy that I've been trying to coordinate a date with for about a month. I showed up to the date with a the huge gift bag. It made for a funny introduction. (More on that in a later post... stay tuned!)}

  12. I haven't tried the gel manicure yet. I love to change my nail color often so I'm afraid I won't get the full effect of it but I think I am going to give it a whirl.
