Polaroid's 75th Anniversary Party at MoMA

Last night guests celebrated the 75th Anniversary of Polaroid and previewed the new Polaroid Plus Sunglasses Collection at the Museum of Modern Art with Carson Kressley and Whitney Port in attendance. The Misshapes deejayed while drinks flowed with Disaronno - love the Disaronno mixed with blood orange and prosecco!

Blush Lingerie Launch Hosted by Carson Kressley at Bloomingdale's Soho


On March 29th, celebrity fashion guru Carson Kressley hosted a presentation for the launch of Blush Lingerie at Bloomingdale's Soho, taking guests through styling tips on wearing innerwear as outerwear. Some of the styling tips showed models wearing a bra under a sheer blouse, peeking out under a button down blouse, pairing a chemise with a cardigan, or wearing the Spellbound polka dot print push up bra poolside with a fitted, high-waisted short for a 60s retro look.

Using models and mannequins, he demonstrated how to power up a ready-to-wear wardrobe with lingerie and shared secrets to finding the right fit with any bra. While taking guests through sexy lingerie looks, Carson also shared some Twitter responses to "What Makes You Blush?". Also, unveiled at the event was the hottest new hardcover book, Second Skin: The Exotic Art of Lingerie, featuring Blush Lingerie on the cover, which was the gift with $100 Blush Lingerie purchase.
