Kipling launches its new handbag collection, Always On ,right in the heart of Manhattan, Vanderbilt Hall in Grand Central. Let me tell you, they know how to throw a cool party!

What’s not to like? Ladies and of course, gents can get their manicure done!

I am absolutely in love with my nails and the nail art that my manicurist did for me. Since my name starts with the K, I can’t help it to pick the nail art that can relate to this party, the monkey and the letter K!

Right after getting a beautiful mani, say hello to the Ciao Bella ice-cream. I got my mango sorbet and chocolate ice cream, and I couldn’t be happier!

I walked around and a glass of Champaign was served. Then I remembered to have my wristband scanned to see if I could win a Kipling handbag. GUESS WHAT!? I WON!! I first thought that I was punk’d! Didn’t see a camera crew running… Okay, next thing I know, I was told to wait as they were getting me a handbag. *Drum roll* Yes, I was handed this beautiful Kipling Elm Tote from The Always On collection.

Then I took some photos around the event.

Oh hello, DJ Harley Vieta-Newton!

Unfortunately, I missed the chair message station, as they were already packed up. But, it’s all good, because I got a brand new tote! All in all, I enjoyed this event so much, and I got a gift bag, too. There’s still time to check out the event tomorrow from 1-5 PM at Vanderbilt Hall in Grand Central.

Can’t make it to this event?

No problem, there’s another special event at Macy’s this Friday September 19th on mezzanine from 9 AM – 5 PM. Free accessory with a qualifying Kipling purchase.
