BLOGGER NYC STAY-CATION: GIRLS TRIP HIGH TEA

After a nights rest from the first day of our vacation (see blogger stay-cation day 1) we headed to the city for brunch. As we're all bloggers, you know we had to do Start our second day off big right?

In car makeup came out really good

Sunday high tea and brunch at the illustrious Alice's Tea Cup II....that's a great way to start!!!
First, a little about Alice's Tea Cup. The atmosphere is great for conversation, laughter and some fun. Growing up I never watch Alice In Wonderland (the basis for the restaurant) but my blogger boos set me strait so I would understand the restaurant theme more. I was the only one mad because the tea cups and plates didn't match. I know better now. I loved the quaintness of the restaurant (if you can even call it that) and the atmosphere was amazing. Plus you may get a celebrity citing. Don't forget this is the location for movies such as "Trainwreck" so you never know when Amy Schumer or Scarlett Johansen will walk by your table and say hello (second part really happened).

The food at Alice's Tea Cup was amazing too. The food was just AMAZING!!! Our three tier brunch of finger sandwiches, scones plus omelets and three different kinds of tea was perfect for a Sunday brunch. Not to mention some tea infused drinks that were the perfect topper.

My brunch was looking right!!!!

Everyone brunch was good too!!!

After brunch what comes next....photos.

We took photos in our Sunday best. Had a complements all through the streets and we snapped away. How great we looks and ANOTHER celebrity citing and complement from Jerry Seinfeld. Thanks to Eloquii, were we able to really show our fashionable Sunday wear. I love that we all decided to wear color, patterns and designs to show how girls of all size can wear any pattern or color. We range from 10-28, traditional to sporty, tall to short with all different body types but I have to say we looked really good today. Here are photos from the day.

Special shout out to our Sponsor Eloquii and Alice's Tea Cup for an amazing day.

DESIGNER CHARNAE & RAW HANDBAG

"I have always wanted to be a designer since I was a little girl and although I took a different path in college I never lost sight of my passion and dream."-Charnae', designer and owner of RAWH

I first came across RAW Handbag designer while at a shopping event geared towards women. I instantly gravitated to the images of black women women with unapologetic black hair!! From that day forward I have cultivated a relationship with Charnae, the designer of RAW.

Here is more information and photos on the brand I have fallen for...

Charnae describes RAW Handbags as "unique, handmade handbags that are guaranteed to make a statement and compliment your wardrobe. RAWH are designed for ALL women to; “Wear fearlessly, Spread womanhood and Inspire other women to be phenomenal.”

Charnae started RAW after years of working in a career she did not like. She dreamed of working in fashion and designing. At that time, she was more into social norms of success. She couldn't continue doing something she didn't love and decided to follow her passion and dreams to make her happy.

RAW was created to help women. RAW stands for Recognize A Woman. Her main reason for creating these handbags was to to empower, uplift and motivate women through fashion. How could I not love a brand that is made for women by a women with a message like this.

Here are some bags I am loving:

CHRISTIAN SIRIANO/LANE BRYANT RUNWAY SHOW AND THE EMPOWERING WOMEN SUMMIT

Yesterday, I was rooftop of the United Nations watching the most beautiful collection from one of my most beloved designer and my most loved brand.

After a bit of confusion as to what building to head too, a long maze of clearance (this is the UN!!!) and a "I just love you" to plus male model Zack Miko, I walked out to NYC sky line, bright sunshine and a beautiful grass runway.

PHOTO VIA ESTRELLA FASHION REPORT

In NEC WORLD, I was running late so I had very little time to take photos of celebrities/stylist BUT here are a few

With kisses and hellos from my blogger boos (some of whom I haven't seen in a while) I sat down ready to see the collection. Even though the collection is already in store, fashion shows from Siriano is never simple. I hope to see some concept pieces and maybe even some items made available later in store (cross fingers)
