On Wednesday August 24th I attended a Dave Lackie Dinner party for Elizabeth Arden’s new skincare and makeup products.

The day started with getting my hair styled by a hair stylist from STYLU. I’ve blogged about the amazing app on my blog, if you like have a look. STYLU New On Demand Beauty Provider app. Because I blogged about Stylu I was kindly given a credit for my blogging services. I’m truly grateful because my lovely Stylist Monique did an incredible job! I’m so pleased at how easy it is to book a stylist with Stylu app and I’ll definitely be using the app again. The app allows you to book anytime and any day to where ever you want! They will come to your desired destination. This is such a great app for busy mommies. I’m so happy about this app being available because it is very hard to take my children to the hair salon. This way the stylist will come to your desired address. It is the simplest and most easy app I have ever used and I will continue to use in the future.

Following the hair style, I did my makeup. I used Chanel’s Fall Collection followed by the outfit for the evening which consisted of black pants from Reitmans, black boots from Winners, a striped top and light red jacket by Susy Shier.

I then traveled down town Toronto to the Aria Ristorante which is located at 25 York Street. The private room was decorated beautifully with fresh flowers and beautiful linen. The decor was perfection!

Along with the decorations the Elizabeth Arden beauty products were displayed around the room with beautiful flowers and arranged so nicely for picture taking. I love the creativity that went into the displays!

Truly exquisite don’t you think? I’m absolutely loving all the new lip products and skincare. I adore the new liquid liners and the fragrance is so sweet and floral. Very stunning! So many beautiful new products from Elizabeth Arden I can’t contain my self!

The evening continued with beautiful dinner and speeches.

I also had the pleasure of being in good company with lovely guests and fellow bloggers.

Here I’m with the lovely Christine, the author of Mom Loves Makeup. She is so kind, sweet and I really enjoy her company.

Here I’m having an amazing time with the beautiful Cat the author of MyLipAddiction.com Cat is a ray of sunshine and beautiful from the inside and out! She always brings such positive energy to the room and the people around her. She inspires me so much!

Here is the inspirational Dave Lackie. He is so down to earth, kind and sweet. I highly recommend that you take a look at his amazing Beauty Guide Magazine. It’s Amazing! I also love his website and adore his lovely articles and giveaways too. I recently read the article on his website written by Beth Anderson and the article is The Red Door a History of Elizabeth Arden. You should have a look because it is a wonderful article.

I was very luck to attend the Dave Lackie dinner for the GIVENCHY The Art of perfumery event on June 14th at the Arcadian Studio on 401 Bay Street Toronto. The Theme was “Summer Chic” and the special guest that evening was Mr. David Titheridge the general manager of Givenchy. The room was filled with amazing bloggers and other artists. Dave Lackie always brings people together in a warm atmosphere and spreads joy to so many lovely artist. He encourages them to continue their passion and love for what they do. I love that about Dave. He inspires and gives so much empowerment to everyone.

The room was set up with beautiful floral arrangements and Givenchy perfumes all over the place.

The hors d’oeuvres were delicious and the drinks so refreshing. I had a fruit cocktail and at dinner a white lovely wine. The dinner was exquisite! The salad was fresh and the chicken so tender and mouth watering. My dessert was a strawberry sorbet and I loved it! The service was wonderful and accommodating to my food restrictions. I highly recommend the Arcadian Studio for parties and events.

Following the lovely dinner Dave Lackie and Mr. David Titheridge gave a lovely speech about the Art of Perfumery and the history of Givenchy.

You can read a great article about the History of Givenchy on Dave Lackie’s website. “The House of Givenchy”.

The Arcadian Studio was magnificent and Dave Lackie was an amazing host. I really enjoyed listening to the speeches and learned so much about the art of perfumery and Givenchy. I’m truly grateful to Dave Lackie and to Mr. David Titheridge for the beautiful opportunity. Thank you so much!

We kindly received a beautiful Live Irresistible Fragrance and a Dahlia Divin Fragrance. I’m really loving the Dahlia Divin! It’s so sweet and soft. Floral and really lovely for summer. Thank you so much Dave for this beautiful gift bag! The Givenchy travel bag will come in handy soon!
