Fashion's Night Out!!! News & Sightings…

September 11, 2009 / Noire Tropical Beauty / 1 Comment

Hi Ladies!

So last night I went to the M.A.C. Store in SoHo as my first stop for Fashion’s Night Out. I must say that I think this was a great idea and I would not mind seeing it take place every year. It was great seeing people shopping, eating and having lots of fun! I’m sure that retailers made some extra money. Next to the M.A.C. store was the Rachel Roy pop-up store and there was a long line, with a velvet rope and everything!

Anyway, back to M.A.C. – The store had a constant flow of people going in and coming out. There were guys serving bottled Coca-Colas and Perrier, finger foods and homemade oreos! They also wore tight black M.A.C. t-shirts and smudgy, glossy black smoky eyes. Fabulous!!!! Performing Artist Janelle Monae was also there and she is absolutely the cutest!!!! First of all, she has this big personality in videos and magazines, but she’s tiny! She’s was rocking her signature, afro mohawk, pompadour hairstyle and the makeup?? FLAWLESSSSSSSS!!! I don’t even think she knows what a skin problem is. It was very simple – neutral lids, pronounced lashes, pale pink blush and lips, flawless foundation.
