Weardrobe Retreat Day One


I landed early yesterday morning in NYC and promptly went for a nap in my shared suite at the Gramercy Park Hotel. The hotel is gorgeous and the color scheme of my suite is a lush mix of white, baby blue, and crimson red. Very inspiring space to nap in!

Weardrobe has kicked things off to a wonderful start. We've been snapped by a street photographer both individually and as a group (more pictures of that to come, I'm sure) and received some awesome swag: necklushes, Cheap Monday jeans, Payless shoes, Victoria's Secret, Shopruche, and Who What Wear (the Who What Wear book!). Everyone is so down-to-earth and slightly overwhelmed and giddy about the items we are receiving. It is definitely a pleasure to be around people so genuinely flattered to be treated so nicely rather than taking things for granted.

You can follow regular updates on the Weardrobe NYC page here. There's some wonderful candid shots of the group.
