As you read in my outfit post, Tuesday night I headed back over to Broadway East for the Chictopia party.

I had heard lots of lovely fashion bloggers were going to make an appearance, so I skipped the other events on my calender to attend. When I arrived the scene was VERY different than the night before.

Same line outside wrapping around the block, but this time I didn’t recognize a single soul. I waited patiently and finally got inside to grab a drink and walk around, only to notice the place was bare!

Groups of people were dinning at tables as if they had ordered dinner, the bartender was ignoring his two patrons (myself included), and a second line had formed at the exit where girls were anxiously waiting to receive their goody bags before jetting out the door. I decided to wait until I finished my drink before trying to grab a goody bag and make an inconspicuous exit (hard to do when you’re 6 ft. tall in heels and wearing sequins).

Then, just as I  was about to give up hope and head home, I spotted Jennine outside snapping photos of Susie. I ran out to say hello and was soon introduced to Jeanne.We headed back inside for a drink and before I knew it I was chatting it up with two lovely and super sweet ladies, Nikki and Mel.

From then on the night was a blur. I snapped a few photos, met some lovely bloggers, exchanged business cards, and topped the night off by grabbing a bite with Jennine, Pamela, and Jeannie in the Lower East Side.

Lesson of the night: Stick it out, you never know what can come of it. You make your own fun and your own experience, so put on a smile and go meet new people! You will only get out what you put in.
