This time last week I was super excited to head to the Manhattan Cocktail Classic Gala which housed a number of amazing nibbles, performances and beverages within four floors of the New York Public Library at Bryant Park this past Fri at 9pm. Many of you saw me tweeting from that night which was very dream like.Officially I was invited by Campari who was celebrating the year of the Negroni and of course, was making that classic beverage throughout the night on the first floor. To see all of the pictures regarding Campari at the gala as well as events that took place over the next few days including seminars and tastings you'll find images here! Make sure to see some of the images including Padma Lakshmi within one of the seminars rocking a gorgeous red dress! Due to it being the year of the Negroni, what better way to truly enhance this drink as making it apart of your overall look for a chic night out? Whether you're a guy or a girl, you can always use a pop of rosy red amber to set you apart from the crowd! It's definitely a drink of sophistication and distinction for all of your looks and is perfect for library inspired bars as well as rooftops! Bowties and clutches are optional.
