Last night The Fashion Bomb and Jerrell Horton of Suit Dreams welcomed revelers to Parlor New York for a sequins and suits themed holiday party:
Readers traveled from Connecticut, New Jersey, and New York to toast to the holidays, philanthropy, and fashion:
For the event, I went for maximum sparkle in a sequined dress by Parker, topped off by a Cashhimi clutch and pewter Nicholas Kirkwood sequin pumps.
I had an absolute BLAST meeting you all, and ogling all your cute outfits:
Ow!
Special thanks to Jerrell Horton of Suit Dreams for partnering up on such a fun event!
Also a big thanks to photographer Marta McAdams for the consistently awesome pix, and DsEyez Productions for our (forthcoming) video. Thank you to all my friends for your support. Love you! Lastly, a HUGE shout out to all The Fashion Bomb readers who rolled out! It was so amazing meeting you all in person.
Stay tuned for many many more events in the future.
Smootches!

Cause all I see is ‘Hey, gurl, hey’ fierceness in the sixth picture-OH,POW,DAMN,SHAZZAM!

aww looks like everyone had a great time, i wanted to make this sooo baaad :( but i’ll definitely stay tune for the next event claire
p.s i need that “fuck off” chain lol
December 14, 2011 11:08 pm
I am not sure what you guys are looking at… When I read about the event on this blog, I was like darn it I would love to attend something like that. I also read that you “must” wear a suit or sequin if you were planning on attending the event. I was so disappointed when I viewed the above photos. Clearly everyone did not get the memo. Why was that guy with that stupid hair cut, and junk around his neck allowed to attend? He looked like he was wearing a costume. On another note Claire look nice as always!
December 15, 2011 1:03 am
.Damn it was some fine ass stylish men up in there!!!!!!!!! lawddd ah mercyyyyyyyyy!
December 15, 2011 9:11 am
@Sid I concur…..I know people are quick to give kudos but I’m sorry…it WAS a beautiful black crowd but most of them looked young and fashion challenged, just because the platform is in doesn’t mean you have to wear it, Claire you looked great, loved the entire look, but folks looked off- again I’m sorry.
December 15, 2011 11:12 am
Good morning Claire, I don’t want to trouble you but I was wondering if you had the contacts/links of the other photographers that were at the event.
December 15, 2011 11:33 am
@Gent in the orange tie- You had to be my favorite look as far as the fellas were concerned. Quite impressive. Glad I’m actually getting the oppurtunity to provide you with feedback. By the way, was that Polo eye wear?
December 15, 2011 11:56 am
Miss Fancy – Thank you for the compliment. My eye wear is Versace
December 15, 2011 3:54 pm
Claire that dress is very flattering on you, after seeing the pics I really felt I missed out. Hopefully there will be another event in the near future
December 15, 2011 4:01 pm
Everyone looked fab!!! you are so pretty Claire! I hope to be at your next event:)))
December 15, 2011 4:59 pm
These pictures gave me a breath of fresh air! It’s not often where I see pictures where just about EVERYONE looked good!
December 15, 2011 7:20 pm
Claire! It was great meeting you Tuesday night! You’re such a great hostess, making sure we were having a good time. You’re so sweet & we had a great time! Le Femme Flaneur will definitely be at your next event! <3
December 16, 2011 11:42 am
