My-Wardrobe Birthday Contest

For those of you suffering from bitter TheOutnet.com disappointment perhaps you will find a cure today with My-Wardrobe.com's 4th Birthday event! They will be giving away £400 every hour on the hour from 9am-5pm...Perhaps they would rather have you shopping than working ;)! Just make sure you Like them on Facebook and post on their wall how you would spend your £400 and it could be yours! I haven't seen any rules for non-UK residents and they ship internationally!!! I've got my eye on some Day Birger et Mikkelsen, Shakuhachi and See by Chloe for now but still looking!

PS Don't enter early because those entries don't count but I suggest you pre-shop if possible!

Good Evening Lower East Siders: My Gossip Girl B-day

Last week I celebrated my birthday and being that it was my 3rd in NYC I wanted to make it special. As you all can pretty much tell, I love any excuse to dress up! I watched the Korean movie My Sassy Girl a few years ago that gave me the inspiration for my party. I've always wanted to dress up like a school girl and go dancing. So to modernize and Americanize the concept I went with a Gossip Girl theme.

After much searching, I had my birthday at Le Lupanar in the LES. The venue had plenty of seating, easy door policy, room to dance and a very luxe, chill vibe. What can I say? I'm a sucker for those black chandeliers! The manager, Kieter, is a complete darling! He even concocted a special drink menu inspired by the characters of Gossip Girl just for my party and extended Happy Hour! My fave by far was definitely the Chuck Bass-tard...seriously addictive and dangerous, maybe a bit too much like Chuck ;)
