{event} Vogue's Sunday Spill

Yesterday I was fortunate enough to be invited to The Sunday Spill, a special event hosted by Vogue.  The Sunday Spill is a weekly feature on the magazine's website and they decided to turn it into an event; see yesterday's post.  It was a great intimate event on the roof of Elizabeth Arden's Red Door Spa.  The spa is beautiful and if I ever want to spend a day at the spa pampering myself I will definitely make it a Red Door Spa, luckily there is one a little closer than New York.
 
Vogue's Beauty Director Catherine Piercy hosted the event where she discussed the top nail trends of the summer season, while we enjoyed manicures and refreshments. Her three categories of the day were The New Neutral, Neoprene Brights and Power Pastels. I had such a great time getting my manicure (thanks Carmen!) and meeting some new friends.  I decided on one of the neutral colors, which was like a rose gold, called Buy Me A Cameo by Essie.

I was having difficulty picking out my outfit because it was a VOGUE event, but in the end I decided to forget about that and just went with a simple, comfortable outfit! It was supposed to rain, luckily I was spared, but it was very muggy out.

What I Wore: Sweater: Made by Grandma, Dress: Elle (Kohl's), Sandals: Seychelles (DSW), Purse: Marc by Marc Jacobs (Shopbop), Sunglasses: Ray Ban "Emma"  (Marshalls),  Necklace: Francesca's, Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Earrings: Urban Outfitters, Rings: Urban Outfitters, vintage & Mom's

I was not paid to write this post, I just enjoyed the event and wanted to share the experience!
