Recognize any of these handbags? Maybe that’s because practically the entire cast of Gossip Girl has been toting them all over the small screen. If you don’t know Bodhi, attention! Designer Joseph Janus (an alum of Calvin Klein) celebrated the spring/summer line of his men’s and women’s bags with a bash last night at Tenjune, where chicsters sipped 360 Vodka cocktails with clever names like the Bodhi Breeze and the Janus Spritzer. Del Marquis of the Scissor Sisters showed up to check out the custom guitar strap his friend Janus created just for him, and the band Under the Elephant charmed the crowds with an acoustic set to cap off the evening.
Here at IMG Publishing, we’re not strictly focused with fashion–as some of you may know, we’ve been working on a launch known as Cesar’s Way. Behold the fearless Mr. Millan, “Dog Whisperer” beloved the world over and front page of the business section in the Times this weekened, out and about with his new title. Bisous!
We have a major sweet tooth here at Beauty Junkie, and it is no surprise that we are currently coveting Chocoholicks, Jane Iredale’s assortment of lip glosses in four decadent truffle flavors: chocolate, chocolate orange, strawberry cream and caramel. Delish! Iredale’s makeup line was just one of the many delights featured at the Spa Week event at the Midtown Loft and Terrace in New York on Thursday. A celebration of the spa industry, the event included an array of booths inviting guests to calm down and relax a bit. Spa Week will bring $50 spa treatments to consumers at over 750 spas across the country. Elizabeth Arden Red Door Spas offered chair and hand massages for the weary, while Homme Spa doled out foot massages. Pevonia Bontanica featured their breakthrough vitamins and brought their skin analysis machine to the event, which tallies up just how much sun damage you’ve done to your skin over the years. Beauty Junkie side note: a little alarming but quite helpful! Guests had their eyebrows shaped by Spa Chicks on the Go (the first mobile spa company!), and others roamed the extensive fondue buffet, provided by Xttras. As if all this pampering wasn’t enough, guests feasted on chocolate dipped strawberries, marshmallows, and Oreos–and washed it all down with a glass (or two!) of Rioja vin. In the spirit of Spa Week, we declare: go forth and indulge!
