Guest list and all, thank you to the ever lovely N.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>A Night of Beauty<\/strong>, in the Goodman\u2019s Cafe on the Beauty Level\u2014where I ogled &#8217;til I could ogle no more, featuring delicious cocktails and fancy assortments of hor d\u2019oeuvres brought in platters by servers in white and black suits. A panel of beauty experts appeared to share their top tips and insight into industry trends on beauty tips for summer. For beautiful summer skin, makeup that doesn\u2019t sweat off horrifically so, and shimmying confidently into that\u00a0<em>itty bitty<\/em>\u00a0Victoria\u2019s Secret bikini. I dream of La Perla\u2019s, but VS is luxe enough for me, for now.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Panelists included Dr. Irvin Smigel, founder of SuperSmile and creator of the non-surgical face lift (for which he appears in the Smithsonian for!); \u00a0John Kennedy, founder and creator of Tanda LED light therapy; Taylor Chang-Babaian, celebrity makeup artist and author of\u00a0<em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.styleeyesbeauty.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Style Eyes<\/a><\/em>; James Corbert, master hair colorist, personal stylist, and quite the character rolled in one skinny plaid shirt; Dr. Haideh Hirmand, plastic surgeon, and last but not least, Antonio Valladares, nutrition &amp; lifestyle coach.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The moderator?\u00a0<em>The<\/em>\u00a0<strong>Felicia Benson<\/strong>, founder of\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thisthatbeauty.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">ThisThatBeauty<\/a>\u00a0and Bergdorf Goodman\u2019s newest Social Media Beauty Editor.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And now for the fun stuff.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I was so lucky to have been personally introduced to Felicia. She\u2019s gorgeous, sweet\u2014what you\u2019d typically expect\u2014but so full of personality!\u00a0<strong>Beach-y waves<\/strong>\u00a0for carefree polish,\u00a0<strong>bright orange lipstick<\/strong>\u00a0that matched her\u00a0<strong>bold blazer<\/strong>\u00a0(she said she wore it at her previous big event, she loved it so much!), a\u00a0<strong>drop-waist, dove grey sack dress<\/strong>, and a pair of\u00a0<strong>simple black ankle boots<\/strong>. And if you must know, since I assume everyone is as much of a nail-varnish-phile as me, her nails were manicured with a glittery, rainbow polish. My guess is OPI\u2019s\u00a0<em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/lextard\/5091765608\/lightbox\/\" target=\"_blank\">Sparkle<\/a><\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/lextard\/5091765608\/lightbox\/\" target=\"_blank\">&#8211;<em>icious<\/em><\/a>. Stunning. Not just the nail varnish (I\u2019m a bit of a magpie, but can\u2019t be bothered with removing glitter polishes), but her entire ensemble. So on trend yet timeless with the bright pop of color, juxtaposed with a softer shade. perfect for her figure, and the colors paired beautifully with her complexion. I don\u2019t rate on stars, but kisses.\u00a0<em>Bises!\u00a0<\/em>I\u2019ve always loved a little blazer, but hers had me lusting for a palette of them. It was kind of Calvin Klein meets Celine: minimalist, clean lines, modern, yet made feminine with the shrug fit a 3\/4-length sleeves<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And while I planned on snatching her outfit off her back, a lady abides by rules of etiquette, and alas, drop-waists do not flatter the petite. This is my rendition of her look, opting instead for a bandage dress because (1) never fear your curves (2) I only wear Herv\u00e9 L\u00e9ger in my dreams:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/well-orange-you-witty3.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"956\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/im-still-alive-meaning-i-can-dish-about-this-bergdorfs-event-i-attended\/well-orange-you-witty\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/well-orange-you-witty3.png?fit=542%2C417&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"542,417\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Well orange you witty\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/well-orange-you-witty3.png?fit=542%2C417&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-956\" title=\"Well orange you witty\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/well-orange-you-witty3.png?resize=550%2C423\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"423\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/well-orange-you-witty3.png?w=542&amp;ssl=1 542w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kimberlypearl.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/well-orange-you-witty3.png?resize=300%2C231&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Sophisticated, on pointe, and fun\u2014perfect for daytime, or work\u2014swap the ankle boots for a pair of black pumps (realistically, I\u2019d wear the heels because as much as I love edgy, I\u2019m afraid I\u2019m not that cool yet).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The plastic surgeon was a Persian beauty.
