Bond No. 9's motto is "Making Scents of New York", and boy do they ever. All of their 40+ fragrances are all named after something/someplace in New York.
This fall, they will be adding two new scents to their "neighborhood" of fragrances: "Cooper Square" and "Washington Square".
Top: "Cooper Square", Bottom: "Washington Square"
I don't really have any info on what the scents smell like, or their "notes", but we all know I don't really know much about those anyway, right? So, I'll just say that the bottles look pretty cool - esp the "Washington Square" one with the arch on it.
"Cooper Square" launches September 1st, 2010 and "Washington Square" launches November 1st, 2010 at your local Saks Fifth Avenue Bond counter, any of the 4 NYC retail locations or online. I don't know exact pricing but I am sure it will run along the same lines as the others, between $45 to $300+, depending on size. I know it's not exactly budget, but, Bond's packaging (*and scents, of course) can almost make a collector out of anyone.

It's that time of year again - time for The Makeup Show in NYC. It's a trade show of makeup vendors open to the public and pros alike. Last year was my first time to go and I was excited to go again this year.
I have lots of photos, video & info to share with you. However, my kiddo broke his arm, here in Oklahoma, the Saturday night I was in NYC (*I just touched down today and immediately grabbed my liquid love before I even left the airport!). He'll be fine, but he needs doctor visits & surgery on Thursday. So....I might be a bit busy this week before I can give you the full report. Just know, this was another great event that allowed me to talk to so many experts and see so many neat and innovative ideas. I can't wait to tell you all about it.
Tomorrow there is an event in NYC at the Victoria's Secret, on Lexington, for the launch of VS's new fragrance, "Velvet: The Fragrance".
Now, I don't know anything about this scent, but the thing that caught my eye was the fact that you could get a makeover from the VS Beauty Supermodel Artist team - led by Polly Osmond. You might rememer when I met her backstage at the Christian Siriano Spring/Summer 2010 show. It would be so cool to get a makeover from her, but, unfortch I'm in OKC and won't make it. But, if you are in NYC, head over there between 2-4pm and pick up something from their Parfums Intimes Velvet collection (*required) to get your makeover from Polly.
In addition, the model Alessandra Ambrosio will be there for autographs (*with purchase, too), there will be a "Suprise Guest", cake from Sylvia Weinstock and a chance to get a preview of the Heidi Klum VS Makeup Holiday Collection. So, since I don't get to be there for all of that, you'll have to come tell me all about it. Deal?
Well, if you follow me on twitter, then you know all about the drama I had trying to get to NYC yesterday. I am just going to pretend that it wasn't scary and was just a trial run to get ready for today. I'm going to NYC for the Total Beauty Summit and to cover shows at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week.
This opportunity is so amazing to me, and has shown me just how generous people really can be. I continue to be amazed at the kindness I am shown on a daily basis. Bah, enough of the mushy stuff - I'll be all mushy and thankful when I get home and am not cursing them all for me being so exhausted. ;)
So, just like when I went to The Makeup Show earlier this year, I'm going to be blowing up my twitter feed with everything I am doing. So, now is either going to be a really great time to follow me or a really good time to take a break. I'll leave it up to you. ;)
