KL HOLIDAY SHOPPING LOUNGE: Torregrossa Handbags
TORREGROSSA HANDBAGS: As an Accessories Expert, my first love is a fab cocktail ring and the second – phenomenal bags! Torregrossa Handbags (@TorregrossaLtd) has amazing exotic leathers that are a
must when you’re going out for the day or the evening! I’m so pleased to have them in our Holiday Shopping Lounge! Having a number of their exotic handbags included within this suite was a great way to show an emphasis on the power of the handbag! In addition, seeing the entire line in one place (and in person) allowed those that stopped by to see how much of a lifestyle brand Torregrossa is! If that’s not enough, Nicky Hilton is rocking a fab crossbody that is all about Boho Chic! I love that a friend of the Kitten Lounge and mine from Wall Street Journal is also rocking this bag in a fabulous red hue with exotic print –fabulous! She event tweeted out about her bag and teased us with the packaging!
KL HOLIDAY SHOPPING LOUNGE: Giveaway Sponsor
We love that Ideeli (@Ideeli) sponsored our giveaway with a fab Cashmere set in grey with a retail value of $375! This is perfect for the winner or if they choose to gift it – either way it’s one of Kitten Lounge’s favorite hues and is perfect for the winter season. Running around the city with a hat, pair of gloves and a scarf is not only perfect for the cold weather but is super chic and fashionable!
KL HOLIDAY SHOPPING LOUNGE: Ana Reign Designs
ANA REIGN DESIGNS JEWELRY: I have been writing about this phenomenal brand since 2004 so when I knew that Ana (@Ana_Reign) herself could make the trip with her team to NYC to be apart of this event, I knew that it was a fabulous match! With a collection of pieces that have been worn by Joan Rivers, Fergie and many more – attendees got the chance to see her new Swarovski collection that is BEYOND amazing and I am so happy to hear about her working with Swarovski Elements! Her pieces are the perfect conversation starter. Ana is a ball of sunshine and when you see her with pieces, you get why she loves what she creates! I love seeing her
touch her pieces and also giving tips on how to wear them! Her collection incorporates so many hues. I am pleased to be the proud owner of the first piece that I ever wrote about from her collection back in 2004! This Teardrop Onyx Ring (which can be adjusted) is fabulous! Of course, Joan Rivers looks regal rocking Ana Reign’s Clustered Pearl Necklace on E’s Fashion Police.
KL HOLIDAY SHOPPING LOUNGE: Jammu
When it comes to keeping my eyes out for key pieces, I love finding phenomenal Accessories so I knew it had to be included within Kitten Lounge’s Holiday Shopping Lounge as she is a designer with attention to detail but a huge selection that cultivates her customer. Jammu (@JammuStyle) has silk scarves, cashmere and they have partnered with
Swarovski Elements to create a stunning collection! This line has such attention to detail with hand rolled edges, sketches that are used to create the designs and phenom fabrication. During the shopping event, I loved seeing men and women gravitating towards this collection to make their own statement! In order to see more about the collection, you definitely check out Jammu and I truly enjoyed layout in person (which is the best way to see at the event! With rich hues, detailed stories this accessory is very transformative.
should seeing the everything) and more,
KL HOLIDAY SHOPPING LOUNGE: Cuff Link Systems
I am all about keeping things accessible. As much as I love my phone, I hate that I have yet to find a cover for it; however, iPhone and iTouch lucky ducks have a new found friend – Cuff Link Systems (@CuffLinkbyZ), which is two fab products in one! There is an adjustable band and then this comes with a case, which snaps into the band that allows you to be hands free and can turn 360 degrees! Take it with you when you’re exercising, checking lists at the store or event when you need to hold an umbrella while letting someone know you got turned around but are on the way! What a fab stocking stuffer and we love that they are apart of
our Holiday Lounge! It was so exciting to see guests stop by to understand the need and innovation behind this brand! Not only do you have a case for your phone but you can place it on a strap around the wrist and turn it 360 degrees to accommodate your lifestyle!
