IMATS 2014

So today I'm (finally) bringing you guys my lil' photo recap of IMATS LA 2014! Only took me almost 3 weeks! haha

If you follow my Instagram, you probably saw lots of fun photos I posted from the weekend.  I also did one little post here on the blog about my outfit for Saturday's show. But I wanted to just sort of share a lot more photos and do a little recap of the weekend.

I cannot believe this was my 5th (!) year going to the show!

For those wondering if I will be at IMATS NY this year, I will not. I usually just go to the big LA show, but I know Sigma will be there at NY for the first time this year sort of "feeling it out" since it is typically known as a smaller show, but I feel like it's growing... I may go next year! We'll see! I'd love to meet some of my NY peeps too! 

Anyway, back to the LA weekend!

We arrived to lots of pretties in the hotel room...


The first night, we went out to dinner with the whole Sigma Beauty group...

We were so tired that night and I basically got zero photos. So there are.. zero photos of that. haha

The next morning, we got up and headed to IMATS for my meet-up!

It was also the "maiden voyage" of my navy Rockstuds...


They were SO comfortable.


There were SO many people at the booth!



I had the best time meeting you all. I've said it a ton, but seriously, thank you all who came! I had so much fun chatting and sharing a few moments together.

This couple below was the SWEETEST! And I'm not going to lie, I made the encounter a bit awkward. The details are a bit fuzzy, but I remember petting her handbag at one point after this! haha ;)







Brad was so sweet coming to the show with me, hanging out and chatting with some of his friends who were at the makeup show we see every year.  It's always so fun spending this weekend together and it makes me so happy that he's so supportive.  I could melt.  These were just a few of the shots he took, but if you came to the show, you can see all of our photos together that Sigma took at the Sigma Beauty Facebook page!

When we got back to the room, we decided to not let the pretty balloons left in our room go to waste...



...so we went out into the courtyard at our hotel and took some fun photos.



You can see the full OOTD post on this look in this post here.



We relaxed in the room for a bit and then it was time to head to the Sigma Beauty party.


We took all of these photos with our iPhones, and it was dark so they're not the best, but you get the idea! ;)

It's always so fun to see YouTube friends at this get-together every year!



Ha, not the best photo of me, but Jen looks cute! ;)






These are the best "outfit" photos I got of this dress. Again, phones and weird lighting... you get the idea.


This dress is called the "Shades of Blue" dress by Three Floor. I paired it with my Louboutin New Simple nude pumps I got in Paris years back (they'll always be extra special because of that), and a Marc Jacobs studded clutch.

Then it was time to head home the next morning!


Again, sorry for the grainy phone pic, but seriously, I would die to have this little area somewhere near my house to take OOTD photos.  SO pretty!

This was just a quick shot before we jumped in the car to head back to the airport. I'm wearing a top by Bobi, 7 For All Mankind skinnies, Club Monaco jacket, Tory Burch shoes, and my LV Lumineuse PM.

Until next time, LA. It was fun as always.

Here are some OOTD pieces from this post...
