Right before I left for LA for the Emmys, I was lucky enough to be invited to an awesome event hosted by Rebecca Minkoff! She had about a dozen bloggers over to her showroom to drink tea and champagne and take a look at the upcoming Spring line of her beautiful handbags! I’m a longtime fan of her bags (literally, every girl I know has at least one in her closet) so I was super excited to attend!
And this was so much fun — check out Minkette to see more photos and links to all the attendees! These are some of my favorite bloggers and the event was just gorgeous — every single detail was beautifully executed. And it doesn’t hurt when your walls are lined with stunning handbags and shoes!
But most exciting of all, I got to meet Rebecca herself! She was absolutely lovely — totally gorgeous and so down to earth and nice. I was a little intimidated when we started talking, but she was so cool that I got over it in about half a second. I didn’t get a photo of her and I together, but we’re in the background of one of the event photographer’s photos (see the photo with the dorky purple arrow below, oh yes I did).
I’ve been looking for a great fall bag, and Rebecca let each blogger pick one of her designs to take home! So look for my stunning new tan MAC clutch in future posts! (Actually, I took some photos with it by the pool in our hotel in LA today — I can’t wait to post them!)
On me: Rebecca Taylor dress seen here, Ann Taylor necklace and bracelet.

Hey Pearl! It was awesome — we’re actually still here! I think I’m basically ready to give up on NYC and move to Cali, sigh!
