#TheLoveList Lounge Product Sponsor Roundup

For those who could not attend #TheLoveList Lounge at Marie-Lou &D salon- here is a brief product sponsor roundup. All these companies – both small and large helped make my event for 15 lovely attendants AMAZING.

I hear my swag bags were even better than the Milk Studio NYFW swag bags (gasp!). The fabulous Lexicon of Style had this to say, “This swag bag is NO JOKE! I opened it and diedddddd at everything.”

This made me super happy because I carefully curated the event to only contain products I would use and have no problem endorsing.  Stay tuned for some interviews with some of the companies listed below.  I’m so grateful to have the opportunity to share these great brands at #TheLoveList Lounge:

Invo Coconut water

Skinny Gal Sparklers

Lily’s Sweets

KIND Bars

Tease Tea

Happy Spritz

Spoon Me Sweetly

Perpetual Shade

5 minutes 5 questions: Kara Yoo

Overall I’m a big accessories fan. Statement necklaces and earrings are my favorite. Kara Yoo Jewelry is the quite the opposite – its more understated chic. Nevertheless, I’m a fan of her stacking rings, which have tiny ridges making the sparkle subtle yet effective.

So happy to share a few Kara Yoo rings with my favourite friends here in NYC.  Here is 5 minutes 5 questions with the sweet, talented Kara Yoo

1. How long have you lived in Vancouver?

I’ve lived in Vancouver since 2001. I was born in Edmonton, and grew up in Oakville, Ontario. Vancouver is home!

2. When did you start your jewellery line?

I started Kara Yoo in 2012 at the end of the 2-year program I took in jewellery making and design.

3. Are you gold or silver?

Definitely gold, although I do like mixing metals and wearing a combo of yellow gold, rose gold and silver.

4. What is your favourite piece of jewellery?

My favourite every day piece is the Single Neck Cuff in yellow gold. I wear it every day and it goes with virtually everything from a t-shirt to a formal dress.

5. What are the top three characteristics on your Love List (characteristics or qualities you are looking for in a potential mate or current mate)?

Humorous, Caring, Genuine
