FNO!



Tonight is the night I've been waiting for all week: FNO! I went last year, but it didn't go exactly to plan. Since I was a freshman, I didn't know exactly where all the best places to go were so we ended up in Time Square riding the ferris wheel in Toys R Us. Fun times.

For those of you that don't know, FNO stands for Fashion Night Out and usually takes place on the first Thursday in September. Most stores give out free goodies. For example, Free People is giving out free iPhone cases to the first 50 shoppers. A lot of celebrities will be there such as Justin Timberlake and Kim Kardashian.

This year, I plan to hit some good stores in SoHo, however I have class unti 7:50 so I'm gonna have to book it to get to the Q46 and then on the subway. Hopefully I'll have stuff to write about it tomorrow! We won't make it to the city until around nine-ish so who knows if anything will be open!

But from what I've heard, FNO is not just limited to the NYC area- I just received an email saying that the Lilly Pulitzer in my hometown area is holding an event!

For all of you that are attending, or did attend (if you're reading this after the event), what stores do you plan to go to?

Frist Day of the Semester!

Today was an amazing first day of my second year at St. John's. It started out dreadful with a three hour calculus class at 10:40. I was not looking forward to it, but the professor was really cool. Three hours flew by and before I knew it I was done!

After that, I went with my room mates to the city to go get some things for the room. We went to Lush in Herald Square and it was so much fun. I've been in the store in Atlanta a few times but I never knew much about it. But I can definitely say now I feel in LOVE with it. We bought soap for our room called Honey I Washed the Kids and it smells so good!

I also bought a lipgloss which is supposedly supposed to last a year from their new cosmetic line called Emotional Brilliance. The color is very natural and is good for going out or just going to class. I absolutely love it and can't wait to sport it tomorrow!

PS:
While waiting for the Subway to go back to Queens, we spotted Lilly (aka: the best friend) from the Princess Diaries!


It definitely made my day! Hopefully I'll see more celebrity sightings this semester!

Hope you all are having a lovely week!
