So last week, I attended the Manhattan Cocktail Classic Gala at the New York Public Library at Bryant Park. Being able to walk around the library after hours with a cocktail in hand was definitely a lot of fun and I loved the little sign details that directed you to areas that had more beverages and more that didn't! I have to say that this sign (Paul directed me to it) seems to definitely encompass a lot of what is going on within the Kimmie and Kitten Lounge brands! It's always fun to see amazing emails about items as well as attending meetings and trips about Project(s) X but it's so hard not being able to share them until I'm given the green light! It's a constant state of giddiness, I will say that! I feel that over the past few months that the team has been working double time when it has come to Kimmie's Gimmies (fun event tomorrow thanks to our partners at Lucky Magazine, Bloomingdales and Dior - tweets will be flowing), appearances and networks that I have recently joined which are always good things!

I love that next weekend (Memorial Weekend) I'll be back on HSN May 27th at 2am and 7am and then again on May 28th at 6am sharing fab shoes from Sebago on air for an hour each. Interestingly enough, an hour for each slot seems to run by like 2 seconds and of course, I'm in the final days of choosing what my final looks will be for each slot. I love that literally the same day I'm flying out I will have a super cute photoshoot as I'm joining a fab magazine network which definitely makes me super happy and you'll hear tweets about this next Thurs I'm sure.

Beyond that, we also know that I will be working on my Kimmie Smith x Sebago Fall 11 collaboration which will be out soon - working on the official photoshoot is always something that I enjoy doing and having notables involved with it is even better! Of course, I always have to do things above and beyond so I can't wait to show how this lookbook will truly come to life and of course, while I'm at it, I will do the same for Kimmie Smith x Sebago Spring 12 which is a new baby that's been added to the mix! With so much going on, the sign is actually comforting to know that this is just the normal state of things in terms of Team Kimmie and Team Kitten Lounge but the best part of a secret is when you have the opportunity to share it!
