New York New York, a wonderful town...
Yesterday's FedEx brought me an envelope, there's nothing uncommon approximately that. However, when I opened it, out fell a brown leather pockets. Not a billfold thoughts you, but a widespread, breast pocket pockets. In it turned into my itinerary for my journey to New York on Thursday.
The fine folks at Brizo are flying me to New York for a series of meetings with their marketing and product development departments. I love this kind of stuff. Really. I find product development to be fascinating, and it makes me feel like a player when I get the chance to go behind the scenes. So I'll spend all day Thursday meeting the people behind the brand.
New York Fashion Week starts next week too. And speaking of feeling like a player, Brizo is taking me to the runway show of designer Jason Wu on Friday.
Wu's show is at the St. Regis Hotel on East 55th Street.
After the show, we're going to the after party. It's a mingle in a penthouse, a room complete of fashionistas and various glitterati. This may be a fuel. I would by no means do something like this if I have been left to my personal devices. But you already know, some of my lifestyles's high-quality reports have come from times when I've been thrown into some thing. I don't genuinely recognise very a good deal approximately fashion past a handful of names., but I've been a fevered follower of Project Runway from day one. Thanks to that show, I even have an understanding of favor as an art shape I would no longer have otherwise. I'll make certain to observe The Devil Wears Prada before I cross too, as a cramming exercising of path.
So regardless of my appreciation for the arty nature of Brizo's offerings, I in no way pretty understood their connection with Jason Wu and why I was going to his display as their visitor. Then I saw this video and it defined it all flawlessly. It's a fantastically-produced spot, so pull up a chair, it's a good watch.
I'll continue to post while I'm in New York, though my schedule may be a little off. I'll be Twittering my thumbs off the whole time too, so if you're a Twitterer come find me @saintpetepaul .
