It's All Fun and Games Until It Rains...

So, first things first…I must digress about the beginning of a chaotic weekend. Friday evening my friends (shout out to the Aliche clan) and I went to Aspen, a sexy lounge/restaurant in the Flatiron District for a “Black Fashion Rocks” soiree, hosted by the JI Group. My outfit consisted of a cute blue tie neck halter, skinny jeans, Charles David platform sandals and a vintage clutch that I got from my friends boutique Bits & Pieces. I wasn’t prepared for this…I wasn’t supposed to go (long story…I have two jobs and working on a third). But anywhoo, I went and it was really classy, there was a little too much estrogen in there, it was too crowded to network and I am a little upset that I did not receive a gift bag. AND that’s not even the worst part…we left the party to be greeted by I guess, Hurricane Ike! It was pouring rain, couldn’t catch a cab to save our lives (even with a flash of leg from my friend Carol)…what is going on in America? So we ended up walking like 10 blocks and it felt like 50! My hair was drenched, makeup smeared down my face (I looked like Lauren from the Hills when she “cries”) and I was walking like a little kid who peed on themselves. A tragic mess I tell you….TRAGIC! And to top it off I had to be at my PT job at 9:00 am…it was definitely 3:30 when I got home.
