Last night I headed over to
Gossip Girl Nights, appropriately held at a little Upper East Side spot called
Pop Lounge. The weekly,
fashionindie-sponsored event is the kind of thing that makes me wish I lived in NYC, or at least visited more. Every Monday a different designer from the show is featured. This week's event showcased
Angel Lust by
Kristen May, an adorable line of headbands and bows that are perfect for turning up the charm on your sweet (and even your not-so-sweet) outfits. The retro-style lounge was ideal spot for indulging in cocktails and appetizers and a few OMFGs, naturally, and when the episode ended I had a chance to chat with the incredibly sweet Kristen herself, along with a few of her friends. Topics ranged from vintage shopping to blogging to grandmas (yup), and my way out i was treated to a gift bag filled with chocolates from the
Chocolate Bar at
Bendel's (where Kristen's pieces have been showcased) and a few other girly treats. You can find Angel Lust headbands, including the must-have rockstar-inspired Spring 2009 collection at Patricia Field in NYC,
revolveclothing.com, and at her
Etsy shop. Check out
Kristen's blog for more pics from the night, and keep up with her work...
psst, her true passion is clothing design!
