the neiman marcus shoe and handbag event

September 29, 2015

If you’ve been reading our blog for very long, you know that shoes and handbags are our “thing.” Our theory is to invest in shoes and handbags, buying more trendy clothing with a much lower price tag, and splurging on those shoes and handbags that you will have for years and years and years to come.

This Thursday, October 1st, we are thrilled to be hosting the Neiman Marcus Shoe and Handbag event at Neiman Marcus Willow Bend with our friend Ashley of The Teacher Diva. What could be better than an evening spent drooling over the latest shoes and handbags, sipping champagne and watching a runway show? We will be talking about shoe and handbag trends for fall and how to style them! Details can be found below- hope to see you there!

A few of our favorite bags for fall include: the must have saddle bag, this bag in the color for fall and a cross body bag.

A few of our favorite shoes for fall include: these fringe booties are show-stoppers, the chunky heel on our favorite over the knee boots & we love the kitten heel on the iconic rockstud.

PS: I finally had to bite the bullet and start wearing maternity jeans. Honestly, I don’t know why I waited so long! These DL1961 maternity jeans are the exact same style as my favorite non-maternity pair, with just a bit of elastic added. I am obsessed!

New York is always a good idea. During Fashion Week, we had less than 48 hours in the city, so we made the most of our time. The moment we landed, we headed to our hotel, quickly changed and made our way to an afternoon full of meetings. It was our first time staying at Le Parker Meridien, the sister hotel of Parker Palm Springs, which we visited a few years ago. The views from the hotel are stunning and we loved how close it was to Central Park. That night, we finished up meetings and a little shopping in Soho and decided to try our luck at ABC Kitchen. The wait was long, but it was so worth it. Our recommendations include: roast carrot and avocado salad, akaushi cheeseburger and the mint chocolate sorbet. A glass of rose for Jean also hit the spot after a long day of travel and meetings!

Sunday morning started bright and early with a coffee meeting at Birch, brunch back at ABC Kitchen (we are a little obsessed), another meeting and then back to Chelsea for the rewardStyle party. With our day slowing down after the party, we headed back to our hotel, changed into more comfortable shoes and walked around Central Park before enjoying a long leisurely dinner. In case you don’t follow us on Instagram or were curious about outfits, we thought we would share scenes from NYFW below!
