Fashion’s Night Out with Bobbi Brown

How am I going to spend this year’s Fashion Night Out? Why, with Bobbi Brown, naturally. And to all those who will be in New York City on September, 6th, join me! Bobbi will be with Leandra Medine, founder of The Man Repeller, one of today’s most influential and fashion-forward sartorial blogs. They will be chatting makeup, beauty and fashion advice and fall trends. And Bobbi’s Beauty Team makeup artists will be on hand providing complimentary makeup applications.

The event will be held at Bobbi Brown’s first ever Cosmetics Pop-Up Shop in Grand Central Terminal. And there you will be able to preview Bobbi’s Red Carpet Creamy Matte Lip Color ($24; otherwise available October 2012.). Only 500 will be released, adorned with a special Fashion’s Night Out insignia. It might just be the perfect fall lip and I cannot wait to get my paws on it.

The details: Grand Central Terminal Lexington Corridor (87 East 42nd Street) on September 6th, 2012 7:00pm – 8:00pm.

 

Chanel Fashion’s Night Out

One of the thrills of Fashion’s Night Out are the exclusive launches fetting the occassion. This year, Chanel amped up its offering with three lip and nail duos. As always, Peter Philips, the creative director of Chanel Makeup, has hit the trend perfectly with the purples, plums and beiges. There are three new colours for lips – Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet in La Délicate, La Provocante and L’Infidèle – and three new nail varnish colours to go with them – Chanel Le Vernis Délicatesse, Provocation and Infidèle. I’ve got my eyes on the vampy, purple set! How about you?

These shades will be available at select Chanel boutiques on September 6th.

Fashion’s Night Out

Fashion’s Night Out was started by Vogue’s Anna Wintour to celebrate shopping and fashion during the extraordinary economic times in 2008.  This year, it is expected to be bigger than ever, with a massive amount of stores and cities participating.  I am lucky enough to be in the fashion capital of the world, New York City, for the evening.
