Preparation for SocialLuxe Lounge.

There’s no adequate way to express the amount of work that goes into a party the size and caliber of  SocialLuxe Lounge, the primping and pampering party I throw on the eve of BlogHer every year.  I can’t really explain the sleepless nights, the hundreds of hours on conference calls, and the days upon endless days of preparation.  I mean, it’s just crazy what it takes to get it all done.

I’m technically on vacation at The Canyons in Park City, Utah so I’m not even supposed to have my laptop open, but I wanted to share a couple of photos from SocialLuxe last week in New York City.

The party turned out to be amazing, and I can’t wait to come back next week and share more details.  Ree was there, OPI and Aveda were there, it was off the hook.

Have a great weekend!
