Last week I attended Essence Magazine's Style 24/7 breakfast celebrating New York Fashion Week. The event started so early that I practically slept in my clothes to be on time, but I'm glad I went. Held on the Strand Hotel's rooftop the posh affair featured a presentation of designer Mimi Plange's collection for fall, manicures by Ginger + Liz, and an ultra-glitzy Swarovski bracelet bar. In attendance were Essence Magazine's Editor-in-Chief Constance C.R. White, top fashion press, trendsetters, and of course, The Creative Cookie:).
It was a morning full of sunlight, robust coffee, and love. Here's a taste of what I saw:
