Red Carpet Glamour

This weekend, I attended a cosmetics trend show. It was a fashion show where models showcased the hottest cosmetic products while wearing the latest looks in clothing and accessories. The event was hosted by Nordstrom, and the theme was “Red Carpet Glamour” because, as the MC explained, “You don’t have to be a celebrity to look like one!”

The show featured stylists giving away beauty products, a DJ playing top hits, and baristas passing out beverages …basically it was girl heaven:) It was really fun to hear cosmetic experts who had come from coast to coast. Since I wrote The Single Girl’s Guide to Meeting European Men, I especially enjoyed meeting Bertrand Thomas, the creator of Caudalíe, a vinotherapy skincare line, who flew in all the way from France. His wife’s family owns a winery in Bordeaux. With Caudalíe, the couple has unlocked the amazing antioxidant qualities of vines.

    This looks like so much fun! I absolutely love Nordstrom and its so important for girls to remember to treat themselves to fun events like this 🙂 One thing I especially love about your book is that although it’s about meeting guys it’s first and foremost about girls learning to be confident in their own skin — especially in a different country — which is what fashion events like this are all about! You and your friends look like you had a blast, this is definitely something I would do with my girls!
