Last Friday night I went to the ModCloth and The Swapaholics Blogger Party! I looked totally out of place in head-to-toe black. Oops. Should have at least worn a circle skirt. It was tons of fun though and I met lots of bloggers!
My mildly paparazzi-ish tendencies caught this awesome print…
… and leopard and hot pink belts!
These last three photos courtesy of the event photographer. Makes me wish I had an external flash! View more on The Swapaholics’ Facebook page.
I swapped two items and picked up one compliments of ModCloth. I also basically pulled a dress off the ModCloth rack, handed it to Nnenna, and said “this is for you” (she ended up leaving with it).
Just before we left for BNO I introduced myself to Tieka with the totally original “I love your blog!”. She’s just as genuine in person as she is on Selective Potential.
Tomorrow will be Blogger’s Night Out! Hope you guys aren’t bored of hearing about fashion week events yet!

Pleasure meeting you Alex! Sorry I didn’t make it to Bloggers Night Out, looks like I missed a great grab bag!! I was so zonked after the swap and show I went to after, I grabbed dinner and then SLEPT….which I am still doing post NYC;)

It was so great meeting you too! BNO was tons of fun, but I am still definitely recovering from fashion week events. My voice definitely hasn’t been the same since!
Mia says
How cool! I’d love to go to another swap, especially if I could drag a friend along. Looks like you had a good time.

you totally rock those green cat eyes, and I’d love to learn how to use external flashes… it’s probably not too hard… just expensive ;)
Alex Elizabeth says
I wish I had a mustache photo too… or maybe one with both mustache and cat eyes! I was totally loaded down with items at that point though and only had one free hand.
Yeah that external flash was amazing. My camera flash is really wimpy and bad so I avoid using it. I tend to get better photos by pushing up the ISO. Well, sometimes haha.
Nnenna says
Thanks again for finding that dress for me- I really love it! Also love that picture of us, haha, the photobooth was so fun :D My recap will be up tomorrow!

I am so so glad you left with that dress. So pretty :) I hope you wear it soon!
