September 11 is always a day we will never forget.
I have visited New York many times over the years for New York Fashion Week and although I would have a view of the new World Trade Center, I never went right up to the memorial. This past March when I visited New York, we did all the tourist things including visiting the September 11 memorial. It was heart-wrenching and a somber reminder of the horror that happened that day to so many innocent people. So, I wanted to post about it, that way, we continue to never forget.
Stanford Shopping Center hosted a fabulous beauty brunch over the weekend for local bloggers such as myself. This beautiful event included a delicious catered meal from Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar near Bloomingdale’s. There was also chocolate from Laderach Chocolatier Suisse which was equally delicious. Yum!
The event was intimate with roughly seven shops from Stanford Shopping Center showcasing beauty products and two tables of local bloggers. It was so much fun to meet new local bloggers as well as speak to people in person who I normally only interact with on social media. I love a good party!!
In addition to yummy food and being social, we were able to check out some new and existing beauty products from our favorite shops at Stanford Shopping Center. I fell in love with the Guerlain perfume from Neiman Marcus. I’m trying to decide if I would like to purchase the “Patchouli Paris” or the “Feve Gourmande” as my fall season fragrance. They are both so pretty!
You know me, I love Chanel beauty! Bloomingdale’s showcased their Chanel N 1 collection which includes a must-have mist. I definitely feel like I need to add this line to my beauty routine. Love!
If you have been following along, you know I also love Estee Lauder products. My travel beauty bag is filled with skin care from Estee Lauder because their products are perfect for reviving my skin when I travel. They have new night cream we can use in conjunction with their Advanced Night Repair line. I am obsessed!
Sephora at Stanford Shopping Center showcased skin care from Drunk Elephant which is vegan and improves skin’s firmness. I definitely want to test out their products.
Nordstrom showcased products from Bobbie Brown and I discovered they have an amazing vitamin enriched face base primer which is perfect for my GenX skin. I am definitely adding this to my morning skin care routine. Love it!
Lastly, Dry Bar was also showcasing their services. They are the perfect one-stop-shop for a blowout when you have a special occasions, big event, or just want fabulous hair for the day. Love that!

Dior has released a beautiful, sparkling pink nail polish for the fall 2024 season, and I am here for it! This late-fall release is a beautiful twist on a classic nail polish color which can easily be worn all year long. Love this!
I often shy away from shades of pink and red when it comes to nail polish. This time, Dior has given us a pink, with beige undertones, I know I will be reaching for often. It’s a very sparkly pink! The sparkles are reminiscent of glitter, which gives it a festive vibe that can be worn throughout the fall season and into the celebratory holiday season. So, if you are looking for a nail polish you can wear now and into the new year, this is the one.
If you work in a conservative work environment, this might be on the edgier side, so use your best judgement since you know your dress code. In real life, Dior Vendome nail polish is little more beige than what is reflected in this photo. It is more of a beige-pink. This gives it a neutral vibe; aside from the glittering sparkles.
Fall 2024 nail polish colors I love:
I am excited to add Dior Vendome nail polish to my fall 2024 nail polish wardrobe. What do you think of this sparkling beige-pink hue for the fall season?
Thanks for stopping by!
XOXO Cathy
