A visit to NYC and a night out at the Grand Prix Gala

This week I'm in NYC facilitating classes for stylists at the Redken Exchange on 5th Avenue. My team is busy attending local events. For more info & fun pictures, check out this week's blog.

As Spring kicks off, I hope you are staying warm! I’m in New York City for a few days to teach at the Redken Exchange. I can’t believe it’s snowing! I'm attaching a picture of my view.

 

So while you guys are enjoying some sunny weather, I’m going to turn the blog over to Ashley.

Hey guys! Aren’t you glad it’s not cold enough to snow here?

So, Friday night we had the opportunity to attend the Grand Prix Gala in St. Pete! In case you didn’t know, the Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg is a series of Indy car races through the streets of St. Pete. It’s definitely a cool event to check out. Jackie, Hollie and Kortne joined me to host a booth at the party. There's a photo of us before the event started.

 

We were pretty excited about this event. The Evening of Elegance featured exotic cars, a fashion show highlighting local designers and a silent auction. One lucky bidder even took home a complete hair makeover with Darren. The best part? The event raised money and awareness for St. Anthony’s Hospital Memory Disorder Center.

 

Luxe Fashion Group threw a fantastic event! Even us girls enjoyed the cars. Can you tell?

 

 

Thanks Ashley. And thank YOU for reading my blog. Next week I’ll be styling backstage at Jacksonville Fashion Week, but tune in for makeup tips from our very own Mirabella educator, Hollie!

Yours in style,
Darren
