KCFW SS'16 KICK OFF - BUBBLY AND BAUBLES - KENDRA SCOTT

Kansas City Fashion Week is finally here. Last Sunday it all began with the kick off event : KCFW "Bubbly & Baubles" ," held at the Kendra Scott store at the Country Club Plaza. One of the perks of being one of the Official Media Blogger for KCFW  is that you get invited for VIP parties and after parties, besides the runway shows. It was essentially a styling event where the best in fashion in the city were getting together, to have a fun afternoon. The KCFW team put together a brilliant array of Baubles from Kendra Scott. So if you have had your outfits planned, now was the time to style them with the right touch of bling.

The word " Baubles," in the title of the event was my inspiration for my OOTD. I pulled out a Gun Metal Sequinned Mini . I paired it with an Aztec printed black and white peplum top. Anything to camouflage my tummy(read: problem area). I broke the black and white monotony of the outfit with a pair of Cobalt Blue ballet flats. For my Make up, I stuck to the Urban Decay Naked 2 palette and MAC Creme cum for my lips. My Prada cat eye shades . I paired some silver earrings and skipped a necklace. How did i forget my trust ZARA bag in rose gold. I guess it was this bag, which led me on a rose gold trails later this afternoon.

If you know me, you know that I love rings. I don't know how the organizers knew that. We did fill out our names for a raffle which was happening that afternoon. I duly filled it up and was chatting away to glory with the ladies, when they announced that I had won this beautiful NAOMI DOUBLE RING IN BRONZE DRUSY BY KENDRA SCOTT. Thank you Kansas City Fashion Week and Kendra Scott for the lovely gift. It was truly an Aww moment for me. Can't wait to style it with one of my outfits during the week. Just when you win a ring, you realize that your nails got chipped despite a fancy mani. Mommy problems.

 As the name suggested there was Bubbly and Baubles galore. Sipping on some Champagne, and shopping for bling and hanging out with your girl friends, isn't that a perfect Sunday afternoon !! Oh Yeah !! Must add that I always love the choice of Cheese which the Kendra Scott team serves up at their events.

So I decided to scope out the store for the perfect statement necklace and the perfect pair of earrings. I already had the ring. It was time to shop. 

I had my gift card from THE BLOG GUILD and KENDRA SCOTT for winning the best blog contest some time back. First on my mind was the RAYNE NECKLACE. 

After trying on a few, I decided to explore the COLOR BAR option which Kendra Scott offers and create my custom version of the fan favorite tassel necklace. I opted for Rose Gold and Magenta. 

 Isn't it pretty !!!! Now for some earrings !!!

 What blew me away were the ADELA EARRINGS !!! It was difficult for me god decide which metal to choose from. But I was clearly having a thing for Rose Gold on that day.

Shopping and styling done, it was time to socialize some more. Its such events which give you an opportunity to catch up with your friends and mix work with pleasure.

And make some NEW friends and have a perfectly girlie afternoon. Kansas City has such a brilliant Blogging community.
