After the ModSwap, Alex and I needed a teensy break before jumping right over to Blogger’s Night Out, so we stopped at cute little bar to sip a cocktail, grab a snack, and rest our feet. On our way to the event, we couldn’t resist taking a few pictures of the beautiful city at night. Alex was also kind enough to snap some outfit pictures for me- thanks girl!
When we got to Blogger’s Night Out, the place was packed- there were bloggers everywhere! :D We quickly found Laura and Katy and walked around the venue to explore a bit.
Some great sponsors, including Lulu’s, had booths set up where you could win free stuff and we all walked away with some great swag! I think the organizers of Blogger’s Night Out did a awesome job and I can’t wait to attend the next one! =)
![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?
[P.S. This is an old photo that includes a HarperCollins UK title, but please note that I support the HarperCollins Union.]

I really loved your outfit! So perfectly blogger chic :) It was a really well done event, and I can’t wait to see what they do next time. Btw, I may have to borrow a couple of your photos (credit you of course) if you are ok with that!!
Aww, thanks Laura! Of course you can use the photos- borrow away! :D
I spent this night with an old friend and missed all the fun blogger events. :( Looks like it was a great night. So wonderful meeting you in New York, Nnenna! Keep in touch.
So sad I missed this. I could have seen you twice!! I was plum tuckered out after the swap and the GenArt show, had to grab a late dinner and get some shut eye. Still recovering this week!! And can’t wait to do it all again.
How FUN!!!
I wish I couldve been there!!!
