the waldorf astoria and a vintage black gown

IT WAS KINDA like a fairy tale... Sneaking away to snap pics at the Waldorf Astoria.

I was attending the *CPJ IPFA Awards, but I couldn't resist using the opportunity for a blog post :-)

The Dress: I walked into the East Village boutique, Rena Reborn, and said, "I need a gown for a black-tie event at the Waldorf Astoria, HELP!" Serendipity (aka Rachael Rush) stepped in and voila! A beautiful vintage beaded black dress appeared. It.Was.Magical. 

And no pumpkin shrinking god mother can take it away from me!

Dress: Vintage from Rena Reborn
Black & Gold Beaded Purse: Vintage from Yumi Kim

HOW BEAUTIFUL AND awesome is this coat? More details on that later...

HOW BEAUTIFUL AND awesome is this shirt!? I visited my good friend, Rachael Rush (owner of the fashion boutique Rena Reborn in the East Village), last week and stumbled upon this beautiful printed top. Rachael has an eye for vintage pieces, some would call her an expert :-)

 Remember that obsession with anchors? Yeah, it's alive and kickin'.
Peace baby!
