Brown bagging the bargains at Bloomingdale’s

Bloomingdale's Sip, Shop, and Save event

A few weeks ago I was invited to a fabulous night of shopping and savings at Lenox  Square for Bloomingdale’s Sip, Shop, and Save friends and family savings event. This private-by-invite event launched Bloomingdale’s Spring collection just days before their general public sale and let me tell you that it was definitely one to remember. I’d attended several soirees at Bloomingdale’s in the past so I was super excited as I always have a great time during their hosted events, and I also always seem to leave them with a “big brown bag” filled with something from their haute heel collection.

My invite to this exclusive event came by courtesy of the amazing Theo Tyson of Trinity Productions and Saniyyah “Sunny” Griffin, owner of Sahar Creative and all around dazzling diva! I had the pleasure of meeting Miss Saniyyah a while back, and right off the bat I could sense her warm and inviting spirit. I found out that this particular night just so happened to be Sunny’s birthday, so now the scene was set for a fabulous evening of “Diva deals”, “Bella bargains”, “chic shopping”, and plenty of celebrating! 😛

The event showcased the unveiling of Bloomingdale’s Spring collection of which event-goers received a 20% off savings for the eve. Their Spring collection was amazing and it sent me into a buying binge the likes of which had not been seen since the Super Sale of 76’. 🙂  So while I was in the midst of my epic shopping spree, I had to take a moment to indulge in some of the other guilty pleasures such as the custom cocktails by Ultimat Vodka and the amazing variety of decadent delights courtesy of Chef Courtney Renn. And if things couldn’t get any tastier, the event was held inside Bloomingdale’s shoe department (which I affectionately refer to as “heel heaven”); AND the first 50 guests to arrive received a premium gift bag filled with an assortment of glam goodies such as a cute tufted makeup case, a compact brush, and coupons for even more savings! #WINNING!!!

What a fabulous event! And, despite my sudden burst of splurge-dom, I’m happy to say that my wallet and I are still on speaking terms. 😉

Thank you to Theo Tyson and Saniyyah “Sunny” Griffin for the invite. We all had such a wonderful time, and after my legendary shopping spree I can proudly say that I’m a “Brown Bag Bella!” 😉 What a way to celebrate a birthday, eh Sunny?!
