♥ IFB

A lot of events going on in NYC! So exciting!

A few days after the below crazy block party, the IFB conference took place in the Meatpacking district, so of course I was there!

On the menu, a lot of known bloggers talking about a new way to blog, and the cherry on the top of the cake, Joe Zee as a keynote speacher.

A full day of conferences, but also a lot of Magnum Icecreams, a Customed Nails bar, Hairstylists, a Giant Missoni/target muppet, an Aldo gambling spot... So good to be a blogger...

Day off

You remember that monday, when you woke up thinking that you will go to work... and when you opened the door you realized that was Labor day... yeah you know what I'm talking about.
Well that day was not just chillin day, it was also a good day for a crazy block party in the heart of Manhattan!
Every year, the record label Fool's Gold Records organise this huge event in the back of the City Winery (crazy, hum?). And they work with only cool artists (Duck Sauce with Barbara Streisand, that was them), so they know how to make people move their booties.
My favorites parts were definitely The Brothers Macklovitch, Cubic Zirconia, and the most funky DJ Mehdi (yeah for french people!!). By the way, I want to say that DJ Mehdi was way to young to die, and that he was just an amazing artist.
Araab Musik was amazing to watch.


So here is videos and pics of the event (http://www.foolsgoldrecs.com/2011/09/13/day-off-2011-photos-videos/), enjoy guys!

Be NaïS

I know, I haven't been the best blogger during these past weeks... not a lot of posts. Well, lets resume...I have a shitty phone, which I can not use to tweet or to facebook (you probably think SHAME ON YOU, and you'd be right), I moved a lot lately (from friends places to finally my own now), and I have a real business woman schedule (mostly because I am doing a lot of babysittings... yeah not so glamourous).
But the good news is that NaïS (our brand, just to remind you), have an Ipad. Big step!
So I will be able to tweet and facebook way more from now. Please, like us, follow us, be our friends, and spread the word :

Gimme some MAGIC

Hi guys! Back from vacations?

As I am stuck during the whole weekend because of our girlfriend Irene, I take the time to write a nice post for you trendsetters.
During the past week I was in Vegas...I know, that's really cool! But it was not for fun, I was there for the MAGIC.
Not one of the entertainment shows in Vegas, no. THE Magic Tradeshow, where all the fashion brands spend thousand of dollars to show their new collections. Yes. THAT show.
So, of course, that was crazy. I had 2 days to see everything. WWD magic, Pooltradeshow, Project, Slate, Street, Sourcing... All of it. So exciting.
Desigual was the buzz of this show. With a booth 10 times bigger than the other one, they were presenting their new "cirque du soleil" collection.


But for my part, I was more interrested by the new designers. So most of the fresh new concepts were in the Pooltradeshow.
Here is my selection.

First, I would say the weardest thing, but really cool and totally crazy, The Freaker.

Funny video that explain their concept:

Really cool "Rihanna style" jewelry, Miss Wax.





These shoes are my favorites, Jeffrey Campbell.






Amazing industrial/classy jewlery, Rewind.





The funky concept, Uban Aid.





And finally an eyewear brand, really fresh, Quay Eyewear.
