Pastel Stripes + Go Blog Social After-Party.

All good things must come to an end– and what better way to cap off Go Blog Social than with a party at The Garment District? GBS sprung for sushi and a round of cocktails for everyone, and we were invited to shop the super cute boutique with our newfound blogging buds.

I had time to run home and change, but opted to leave on the super strong shoulder leather jacket from the day’s outfit as a topper. A pastel striped shift was perfect with a bright pink lip and nude pumps, and I left on the mint-colored Hello Cheeseburger jewelry + BaubleBar signature necklace I had been wearing earlier in the day, as well. Nothing like a quick change!

After-party adventures:

Clockwise L to R: Emily‘s yummy cocktail; my makeup for the after-party; the Real Housewives of Go Blog Social: Lauren, me, Emily, Emily, and Maya (who was on a bathroom run); Emily dwarfing me in her killer Target dress. (Credit to the Emily’s for their IG photos.)

The girls and I picked up a few new things at the boutique (to be featured soon on the blog, I’m sure– I bought a grenade pendant, for crying out loud), and then went for drinks (more drinks?!) at the Drum Room.

It was a whirlwind weekend and I was dead tired on Sunday– but totally worth it to meet all these incredibly smart and ambitious women. I left Go Blog Social feeling not only like I had some great ideas for LSR, but also like I had forged some new friendships. Thank you, girls!
