Ted Baker Anniey Printed Bow Detail Skirt
I recently hosted an event and livestream show with “Gossip Girl” costume designer Eric Daman and Swarovski. It was such an amazing experience and I couldn’t be happier that I braved my fear of public speaking and did it. Eric is a truly fabulous person to know and work with.
The Lincoln Road store was packed! We showcased the latest summer trends with Swarovski pieces, announced the winner of the online “Dress as Your Favorite Gossip Girl” contest, gave away prizes to our in store contestants, answered style questions submitted by fans, and premiered the first episode of Eric’s new webseries “The Daman Chronicles” on Cambio. It was a jam packed night of fun and fashion.
I got to meet and have dinner with the incomparable Bevy Smith. Fellow Miami fashion blogger, Kelly Saks dressed as Blair and totally nailed it so of course Eric chose her as the winner! Check her out above sporting her new Swarovski Rocket necklace and seasons 1-4 of Gossip Girl. Make sure you tune into The Daman Chronicles for more chances to win Swarovski & Gossip Girl goodies!
