Ready to have some fun and kick off summer 2016 in style? Then we have a party for you! Can I get a woo-hoo! On June 2, 2016, Hotel Valencia is hosting a fabulous Summer Kickoff Party complete with small bites, and Poptails! I have never had a Poptail before, I cannot wait to try one! Read for all the juicy details, and I hope to see you at the event!

“To welcome the summer season, Hotel Valencia Santana Row is throwing a luxurious Summer Kickoff Party. On Thursday, June 2nd from 5:30-7:30pm, party goers can enjoy small bites and poptails: alcohol-infused fruit popsicles topped with prosecco, at The Terrace, an intimate courtyard café surrounded by blooming bougainvillea and the murmur of a water fountain.

All summer long, poptails will be served for those wanting to partake in the sunshine and enjoy lounging by the pool. Guests will enjoy the breathtaking architecture and delight in views of European-inspired Santana Row below.

Nestled in the heart of Silicon Valley, Hotel Valencia provides the perfect sanctuary for travelers in the midst of the technology-driven hub. Stepping into the entrance, guests are transported to a place reminiscent of the Spanish Golden Age where walls feature embossed plaster treatments with hand-carved details, wrought iron chandeliers hang from a raked plaster ceiling and contemporary Iberian-inspired furniture is showcased.

The luxurious Hotel Valencia also transformed several areas of the modern boutique inn by adding Mediterranean accents. Long oak credenzas with custom stenciling and nail head decorated chairs and night stands complete the design. Hotel Valencia’s recent renovations transformed several areas of the property to accentuate its Old-World Spanish appeal.” _Hotel Valencia, Santana Row.

I look forward to seeing you at the event on June 2! It will be a lot of fun!

Did you see the title? Oh yes, it is true! Kendra Scott will be opening a store this summer at Santana Row! Yes! The South Bay has never been so excited!

On March 23, 2016 Kendra Scott parked their famous Airstream trailer at Santana Row. It was part of their California tour which covered parts of Southern, and Northern, California. In addition to their tour, the Airstream also promoted the anticipated opening of Kendra Scott’s new boutique on Santana Row this upcoming June. How excited are we!!!

The event brought together local bloggers for a fabulous lunch at The Village Cafe on Santana Row with the Kendra Scott team, and also a shopping extravaganza! Kendra Scott featured popular pieces from her current collection which were sold straight out of the trailer! Want to know the fabulous part of the sale? A portion of the proceeds went to charity! Love that!

To celebrate the event, and impending store opening, I donned a few of my classic Kendra Scott favorites with a bright blue dress. Of course the entire outfit was assembled around my Kendra Scott Harlow necklace in white. How could it not be? It was a Kendra Scott celebration!

It was a fun event. Not only did we get to view Kendra Scott’s collection, and talk about the upcoming opening of the new store, I was able to catch up with some of my fabulous, local blogger friends, and also meet new blogger friends! Social event + jewelry = amazing!

If you missed the Kendra Scott Airstream trailer at Santana Row, never fear! The new store at Santana Row will open this summer in June located across from Cocola. It will be jewelry heaven!

The Hello Kitty Supercute Friendship Festival took place July 10-11 at Oracle Arena in Oakland, California. The festival attracted a large crowd of dedicated Hello Kitty fans. In addition to entertainment on two stages, there was a fashion show, photo kiosk, Hello Kitty Sweet Movie Time Theater, Sanrio Friendship Forest, Hello Kitty and Couture Display, Penny Press, Temporary Tattoo station, Hello Kitty Paper Display, and there was plenty of supercute merchandise for sale too.

We attended the Hello Kitty Supercute Friendship Festival on July 11 at 2pm. The event was jam-packed with Hello Kitty fans and tons of activities for adults and kids alike. My kids enjoyed the jumpy house, live entertainment, photo opportunities, fashion show, and art activities. Everything was supercute!

The fashion show showcased Hello Kitty fans and their supercute sense of style. It is amazing how creative people can be! This was the first annual Hello Kitty Supercute Friendship Festival, and it was super fun! We are looking forward to future Hello Kitty events.
