For all you ladies who were wondering about this crazy Who Ha event!!! Well it definitely was over the top but I don't think that I would pay $125-$150 out of my own pocket for a ticket.
I walked in and was overwhelmed by a beautiful Hoopa in the entrance made by Flower Michele, it was breath taking. I made my way around the building visiting each stand. All high end vendors giving helpful advice but nothing I could afford.
In the balcony was the best part. They were doing free hair trials. I passed I didn't want to sit and wait for all that time. They were also doing eyebrow waxing. I ventured and took them up on the free waxing since I was overdo. The woman did a great job. I think it was the John Barrett salon.
I sampled Cakes by Jay they were delicious. I saw Sylvia Weinstock, unfortunately no samples of her cakes but it was cool to see her roaming around.
The best part was the $1500 value gift bag! I received Victoria secret bachlorette panties, essie nailpolish, Vincent longo lipsticks,maybeline lipsticks, GC for a facial peel, Sammy hair product, champagne, hypnotic, pomegranate martini mix, treson perfume, gc $500 galit couture in Brooklyn, gc $500 Kleinfelds, free thanks with an order of Spark stationary, godiva chocolate....you get the idea! It was a good time.
Did anybody else go?

Oh ic.. so it is not they design one and sell it for 3000, she asked the designer to make her a speical one to match the dress.

Right. The dress was more than that, but I would never spend $3000. I spent $400 on my veil and that sickens me.

from what i know most designers dont make veils...I ve never seen a kenneth pool veil so i wouldnt even consider that. And i also havent seen veils made by other big named designers...If you request it then yeah i am sure they'll make you one but they will charge and especially since they dont really do this they'll charge alot bc of that

Thanks! It was a lot, but I knew it was the one when I put it on. And when you find one you love it is hard to settle on something else just because of price. It looks better on, but I didnt want any pics of me in it for some reason.
