Have Your Cake… and eat it too!

I had the opportunity to help put on a FABULOUS event with PAPER Magazine and HP to celebrate PAPER and HP’s 25th Anniversary in the business of printing.

To celebrate its 25th birthday, PAPER and HP partnered for a swank soiree at the New York Public Library at Bryant Park to kick off Fashion Week this evening. Celebs and VIPs including Taylor Hanson, Lydia Hearst, Patrick McMullan, Janelle Monae, Fern Mallis, Estelle, previous Project Runway designers and more, gathered to celebrate the occasion.

Here are a few fun party pics…

As an added bonus, Ben and Jerry’s Cherry Garcia ice cream and cake was served and it was quite scrumptious!

It was a true New York moment for this midwestern gal who moved to the city four years ago and one I will treasure for a lifetime.
