Throw Back Thursday: The Stephanie Lewis aka Miss Glam Launch Party

- as you all know i (Tarah Kostenko) am a glam girl at heart.  i love expensive shoes, glitter, lashes and champagne.  really anything that makes life a little more glamorous, so when i received an invite to the launch of Stephanie's new luxury mink lash line and Pink  brush line i had to be there, not only to support a fellow beauty blogger ( and old Holt Renfrew colleague ) but to check out the fantastic lashes and get a chance to wear pink (the dress code of the evening).  check out a few pics from the event below!

Greeted by this lovely Give Landeau rose bouquet and fancy frill balloon from The Confetti and Co

 - the event was hosted at the Frontier Luxury Flooring Studio on West 8 Ave in Vancouver, a great space actually which they rent out for events such as this pop up shop! as i walked in i was greeted by this lovely set up of party details, roses from Give Landeau and my favorite fancy frill balloons from The Confetti and Co ( i used these in custom colors for my son's second birthday).  no pink party is complete without a glass of rose as you walk in, so the night was off to a great start! great floral decor provided by Making Memories with Scrapbooking, cupcakes and macarons from Sweet Bake Shop and i FINALLY got to try the yummy organic cotton candy from Petite Puff! it's as delish as they say and i had the coconut with edible star glitter ( the 8 year old inside me was DYING).

- many a makeup artist, beauty blogger or fellow glam lover was there! there were makeup and lash applications by Jasmine Hoffman and Taryn Ronning, with makeup sponsored by Milani Cosmetics, even some fashion by local company Shop Maccs ( you HAVE to check out their amazing sunglasses collection and rompers).  olive and piper even partnered with Stephanie to create a limited edition rose gold version of their ever so popular Lucy necklace (get yours by ordering on their site www.oliveandpiper.com) which attendees received FREE when purchasing 4 pairs of lashes or a full brush set. 

- a peek into my gift bag from the event, you KNOW i had to pick up some lashes, I got one in every style and have received so many compliments on the Fluttery Glam style that it's my must have for anyone wanting to check out these lashes!  the band that holds the cruelty free mink is very thin so don't use too much glue, i love 'Shu Umeura lash glue or the small glue that comes with the Make Up Forever Lashes.  these Hugo's Churro's were amazing as well and i am so glad i got my hands on this limited edition Olive and Piper necklace! 

- thank you so much for the invite Stephanie, it was a pleasure to come and support your new business venture and your lashes are amazing! can't wait to try out the brushes next, stay tuned my avid glam lovers, i will definitely be posting a review of the lash styles i picked up and comment in the section below if you want to learn more about SLMiss Glam!
