December is a month of celebrations. There were holiday parties everywhere. Some days ago I participated in a soiree called The Boston Bloggers Holiday Fiesta. The event organized by Alison & Katy Rose took place at Mass Ave Tavern and brought together many Boston Bloggers. It was a night with lots of fun, chatting, and networking. We had the opportunity to meet many bloggers who write about several different topics which include books, travel, cooking and fashion. We also participated in a blind swap. The organizers asked donations for the Toys for Tots program, in addition to having fun the bloggers had the opportunity to make a child happy this Christmas.

Bloggers Night Out Event @ Bloomingdale Chestunt Hill Mall

Quinta-feira da semana passada eu participei de um evento de bloggers bem bacana  o Blogger's Night Out que aconteceu na loja Bloomingdales no Chestunt Mall. O evento foi organizado pela equipe BNO Caitlin Moran, Meade Marisa, e Donaldson Kendall e foi patrocinado pela Stylebook. Foi uma grande oportunidade para os participantes saberem os últimos lançamentos de varias marcas, fazer umas compranhas de Natal, e conversar e conhecer novas bloggers da regiao. Os participantes receberam varios presentinhos como a famosa "Brown Bag" da Bloomingdales a qual continha luvas da marca Freefingers (otima para escrever no smartphone), amostrinha do perfume Estee Lauder Private Collection, e uma bolsinha de maquiagem da Stephanie Johnson. Em resumo, a noite foi um grande sucesso ainda mais porque fui sorteada e ganhei um par de jeans da marca J Brand. Você pode imaginar como eu amei neh!

Zoora Preview @ Bradley & Diegel


Kathy Tung from Bradley & Diegel did her best to give me the hairstyle I asked for!

Semana passada eu estive no pré-lançamento do website de compras online Zoora . O evento aconteceu no Bradley & Diegel Hair Salon na Newberry Street. Zoora é um novo site de compras de roupas que será lançado em janeiro de 2012. O evento que reuniu Aubrie Pagano que e a idealizadora do site e as estilistas Victoria Dominguez-Bagu of Maria Victoria Designs and Emily Muller que serão uma das estilistas a vender suas peças no site. Além disso, Maria Cataldo demonstrou para os convidados como o site vai funcionar.
Zoora vai oferecer roupas de designers independentes da área de Boston feitas sob medida. A idéia é que o cliente possa obter uma peça de roupa personalizado. Por exemplo, voce pode escolher a cor e comprimento. As roupas serão feitas a partir das suas medidas incluindo busto, cintura e quadris.
Entre os participantes estavam algumas bloggers de moda da área de Boston. Todos nós tivemos uma noite muito bacana onde aprendemos mais sobre o site Zoora, e além disso ainda tivemos nossos cabelos cuidados pelos incriveis profissionais do Bradley & Diegel Hair Salon!

Last week I participated at the Zoora online shopping website preview. The event took place at Bradley & Diegel Hair Salon on Newberry Street. Zoora is a new clothing online shopping website that will be launched in January, 2012. At the event we met the website creator, Aubrie Pagano. The designers Victoria Dominguez-Bagu of Maria Victoria Designs and Emily Muller brought some clothes of their recent collections. Also, Maria Cataldo demonstrated how the website will work.
Zoora will offer custom made clothes from independent designers in the Boston area. The idea is for the client to be able to obtain unique clothes customized to her own specifications. For example, she can choose the color and hem length. The clothes will be made from the woman's exact body measurements including her bust, waist, and hips.
Among the attendees were some fashion bloogers from the Boston area. All of us had an exciting night chatting, learning more about Zoora, and having our hair styled by Bradley & Diegel professionals!

Make-up - Smoke & Sparkle Make-up Collection - The Body Shop 


Na semana passada eu participei de um evento de maquiagem na loja de cosméticos Americana The Body Shop aqui em Cambridge chamado Shimmer Sparkle. O evento teve a presença do famoso maquiador Britanico Chase Aston que nos deu várias dicas fantásticas de maquiagem e nos mostrou como usar vários itens da linha de maquiagem Smoke & Sparkle da The Body Shop. A coleção que conta com vários produtos em especial sombra Smoke Eyes Pallet, o High-Shine Mini-Gloss que é um brilho labial bem bacaninha e além do maravilhoso Sparkler que é usado para finalizar e dar um brilho especial para aquele make noturno. Uma coisa super bacana da marca é que todos seus produtos são feitos com ingredientes obtidos de forma humanitaria, através do programa Community Fair Trade program . Onde os agricultores e suas famílias de algumas das comunidades mais pobres do mundo trabalham, fornecem os ingredientes e recebem de forma justa.

O evento foi um completeo sucesso. Eu tive meu make-up feito por Chase Aston, que tem sido maquiador de diversas revistas, incluindo cobre Cosmos, Vogue e Elle. E que também já trabalhou com top models como Kate Moss e Claudia Schiffer. Você imagina o quão fantástico foi aprender algumas de suas habilidades!
Depois vou fazer um outro post mostrando os produtinhos da marca!

Last week I participated at a make-up event at the The Body Shop store in Cambridge called Shimmer Sparkle. The famous celebrity make-up artist Chase Aston gave us some fantastic tips and showed us how to use the Smoke & Sparkle make-up collection. The collection includes the Smoke Eyes Pallet High-Shine Mini-Glosses, and the amazing Sparkler that is a combination of different sized pearls and glitters which create a wonderful shimmer. Special feature of The Body Shop Smoke & Sparkle it that it uses ingredients obtained through a unique Community Fair Trade program. This helps farmers and their families in some of the world poorest communities.
The event was a complete success. I had my make-up done by Chase Aston who is a fantastic make-up artist. He has been a make-up stylist for numerous magazines covers including Cosmos, Vogue and Elle. He has worked with top models such as Kate Moss and Claudia Schiffer. You imagine how fantastic it was to learn some of his skills!
Later I will write a detailed post about the products!
