Exploring NYC Art Fashion & Photos

Welcome back to my blog!  Today I'm sharing photos from my day in the city during New York fashion week.  My friend Amanda and I made the trip to see a fashion show done by Yuna Yang and I wrote all about the show in a previous post - Attending Yuna Yang F/W 17 Fashion show.  

This post contains all the other pictures we took that day; wandering into the Whitney museum, lunch at a cute vegan cafe and of course outfit pictures.  Thank you Amanda for the stunning photography and adventure, check out her Youtube channel  & Instagram. 

Metropark Train station about 8am. 

Arrived at Penn station and wandered throughout Manhattan.

Blick acrylic art store - rows and rows of paint and art supplies, fit Amanda's aesthetic & matched her sweater.  Pretty cool to see so many shades of paint in one place. 

Blossom Du Jour is a cute vegan cafe where we got lunch - vegan mac & cheese and a kale sweet potato wrap.  Fancy vegan lunches at cafes are always my favorite.  

The Whitney Museum of American Art has numerous floors filled with inspiring pieces of pop art done by american artists.

The view of from the rooftop of the Whitney Museum of the New York skyline is breath taking. 

What I wore for the day was simple and chic with a touch of dazzle; very New York.   

This look is simply head to toe neutrals; a plain black long sleeve top, wide leg mauve trousers and vintage pointed toe kitten heels.   

I really love the style of wide leg pants and a tight fitted top.  These trousers are from the brand express, very stylish and comfortable to wear wide leg pants are a 70's trend making a comeback.  The mauve shade of these pants adds a delicate femininity to this look along with the cute pointed toe heels I selected simply because the toes peak right out from the hem of the pants. 

I chose to accessorize this look with rose gold details; a simple rose gold choker necklace and a stack of glittering rose gold rings both from Charming Charlie are the jewelry pieces I selected to add a bit of sparkle to the outfit. 

The starring accessory of this look is this dazzling rose gold clutch from Henri Bendel.  This glamorous bag is the shining star of the outfit adding luxury to the simply chic look while pulling together the outfit and jewelry pieces.

I enjoyed my city adventure and hope to return soon.  Let me know your thoughts in the comments below and be sure to follow my Instagram to see daily pictures.

Beautycon NYC 2014

As most of you may know, this weekend I attended Beautycon in New York City, and IT WAS AMAZING!  This was my first Beauty/Fashion/Youtube/Blogger convention and I was wowed!  Today I'm going to share with you my experience at Beautycon.  I have a bunch of pictures and I did some vlogging too!  So, hope you enjoy me bringing a bit of Beautycon to all of you through this post and vlog!

Here's My Beautycon 2014 Vlog! You may see some familiar faces…. 

Beautycon Experience 

When I first walked into the big building that Beautycon was being held in I saw this cute sign over head with the Beautycon NYC logo.  

Then, when I entered the building there was a pink carpet, so of course I had to take an outfit picture! 

Beautycon OOTD:

Dress~  Abercrombie & Fitch

I adore the beautiful floral print on the dress, and the pretty colors are perfect for spring

Necklace~ Lia Sophia

Pearls are my favorite accessory while dressing up, they make me feel pretty and polished

Heels~ Payless

I really like the shiny material of these white heels, and they are also the perfect height for me to walk in without tripping

( Clothing items still available will be up in Chloe's These are a Few of my Favorite Things shortly)  

I started walking around and saw this really cute and slightly out there shop with stuff that you would see on Instagram.  In the pictures above, you can see bikinis next to giant food statues and if you look close you see why; the top one has a donut print and the second one has a hamburger print, not something you see everyday. 

There was also things like jelly shoes, shiny skirts, and bunny ear head wraps at the shop, and I decided to buy one of the head wraps.  Of course I got the color pink!  This head wrap is super cute and I'm going to wear it with one of my pink floral skirts. 

At beautycon there was ALOT of my favorite Youtubers walking around, so I got to take selfies and chat with a bunch of them! 

Adelaine was walking around holding her big camera and I went up to her and we took some pretty funny selfles!  She is so bubbly and beautiful and had a huge smile on her face the whole time, I just love her dimples! 

I saw Dani and she is super sweet and really beautiful!  She kept saying how happy she was to meet me and I gave her sooo many hugs!

Then I met Meg who is really pretty! We started talking and she said that she actually wanted to name one of her kids Chloe but her sister called the name already, so I thought that was funny!

They were also holding discussion panels with well known people in the industry,  so I decided to watch for a little bit.

Whitney Port talked about how hard work pays off, in her case with her clothing line.  Also, she said how she makes sure to be personable and thankful to her buyers and people who support her.

Dulce Candy talked about loving and being confidant in yourself.  She said how people would always comment on her height, and she learned to love being on the shorter side and ignore the haters. 

Youtubers were also holding some meet ups that I went to!

Niki and Gabi are super gorgeous and have perfect taste, I am in love with both of their outfits!  They are also super sweet and smily too! 

I was really excited to meet Fleur because I have been watching her for over a year now!  She is so beautiful and personable.  We talked talked for a while, and the camera guy even asked if we were related or knew each other from before!  

Kandee, let me just say is the most happy, inspiring, fun person out there!  She had a beautiful, huge smile on her face when she saw me and we took some silly pictures!  I admire her style and had a lot of fun with her!

Crown brushes were there and I purchased their purple brush set because they seemed like pretty good quality for such a cheap price!  And I  have to admit was drawn to the purple coloring!

By the end of Beautycon I made out pretty well in free stuff! 

Heres what I got:

~4 Revlon mascaras

~2 Revlon pencil liners

~2 Revlon liquid liners

~ 3 Maybelline color elixers 

~2 Bare minerals foundations 

~ A tote bag

~ Sunglasses 

~Uberless shampoo

~Uberless conditioner  

~Uberless hair serum   

I had a SUPER fun time at Beautycon NYC 2014 meeting some of my favorite Youtubers, listening to the panels, shopping, and of course getting all of the free products!!  I hope you liked me sharing my wonderful experience with all of you!
