Before there was Brian…

May 10, 2011

Before meeting Brian Atwood, I met Rebecca Minkoff. Having several memory cards can sometimes work against you timeline wise when it’s time to blog. I really enjoyed my experience meeting Rebecca because it was really intimate. It was a daytime affair and I arrived early enough to be the first arrival. I was having a shy day but Rebecca was totally sweet, and we casually chatted about online shopping, ipad flaws etc.

She also showed me her different pieces that our Bloomingdales stocks. Told me a bit about the design and the different trends she was incorporating in her latest pieces. I absolutely love the bag pictured above. I don’t see it on the website anymore but they have a hobo bag with similar leopard cut outs. I think the idea of doing a “animal print” but with cut outs is brilliant. So perfect for someone who is a little iffy about animal prints.

Here’s another favorite the Jane. I think it’s so classic looking while still having that edge that I crave in everything I wear. I also love the light gray coloring. Below the Jane bag you can see the gift with purchase for that day. P.S. Rebecca says don’t expect a slow down in blogger giveaways because they love doing those. So keep trying your luck, I know I will be.

    I too LOVE Rebecca Minkoff. The cheetah clutch and hobo are both amazing, though I prefer the hobo.

#ad21+ Got taken along for the ride at the #MiamiGP with @jimbeamofficial, the official spirits sponsor of the Cadillac Formula 1 Team. The Jalisco Highball inspired by @cadillacf1’s @schechoperez was my favorite serve of the day. From the first pour to the final lap, Jim Beam was a perfect pairing for race weekend.  #JimBeamPartner #TeamBeam #MiamiGP
