NYC Polyvore Meet-Up 2013
I know, I know I am a month an a half overdue with this post but I was changing internet providers and my proper internet connection was on and off...
Anyway, where was I? Oh yes ...
Once upon a time, on June 14th 2013 a group of fashion-loving girls met at the styling kingdom of Polyvore.
Upon arrival to the Soho headquarters we met the lovely @chrystal ( She is the Community Support Coordinator for Polyworld) She made us feel right at home. I'd say there can't be a better a better person for this job. She is warm, friendly, beautiful and has a very unique style.
We walked around and met a few girls from the NY Polyvore staff. They were amazing!
The office was gorgeous, clean, minimalistic and modern.
After getting our little awesome Poly totes, talk and meet everybody ... we head to the Mercer House for lunch
The food was delicious and the company and chat even better. Chrystal and Gina @idreamofgina1 interviewed us all. They asked us questions like ... how we became members, what do we like about Polyworld and the Polyvore community, etc etc
It was a beautiful outside so we walked a few blocks and took a cab to Dareen Hakim's studio. Dareen @dareenhakim was so lovely! She was down to earth, friendly and such an isnpiration! Did you know that each metal plaque in her bags showcases a different ancient Arabic symbol? Each of them ha a specific meaning related to either good fortune, love, happiness, etc. When I met Dareen back in June, we talked about this detail in her designs and I absolutely loved the idea of carrying a mantra charged with good vibe from its creator wherever you go. I could not afford a purse back then but I will be saving my pennies to finally put my hands on one of these beauties!
After Dareen's studio we head to one of the most iconic and touristy rooftops in the city 230 Fifth Roof Top bar. The view from the city here is priceless and so are the cucumber mojitos or not dear @shedgy ?
My polygals were all dashing and so much fun to hang out with. Thanks for the wonderful memories Denise, Lidia, Rosina, Sharon, Els, Jennifer, Debby, Lisa, Cassidy, Michelle!
I had the time of my life!
Thank you @polyvore-editorial@polyvore #polyvorecommunity for all the efforts made so this could happen.
