LA FAMA!


As some of you probably already know Stephanie, her husband Robert and I just returned from a long weekend in Miami. What were we doing in Miami? We were at Oribe's nearly annual Backstage event which is a weekend full of inspiration, parties, glamour and fun! It also happened to be the launch of his new products and a chance for us to be among the first to experience them. I can assure you that there is something for all of you and they are pretty incredible! There are three new mousses; one for big ol' hair called Grandiose, one for beach bomb locks called Beachcomber, and one for curls (finally!) called  Curl mousse. There is a fantastic new dry spray called Thick and it does exactly what it says it will and finally Soft, a dry conditioner to keep those ends glistening on the second, third and so on and so forth amount of days. I can't wait to teach all the salon about them and try them on you! 

I came across this video and some pictures from V Magazine, a frequent employer of Oribe himself, that will give you a little look into our evening of La Fama! You can also check out Oribe Hair Care on Pinterest and they have an entire board dedicated to Backstage. 

On another note we stayed at the Raleigh in South Beach and could not have been more pleased with wonderful customer service, a gorgeous lobby, a pool that basically sends you to another place, and very cozy beach chairs! There is also a wonderful martini bar in the lobby serving great old fashioned drinks made by a NYC trained bartender. Everything about the hotel was a dream and I highly recommend it!


I sort of fell in love with Miami while I was there. Everything was over the top (in a good way, for the most part), they had art galleries at the outdoor mall, the gorgeous art deco buildings, the food was amazing, shopping was great and there is something pretty sultry about the hot and humid air...or maybe it's all the gorgeous people there! Either way I cannot wait to go back!
