taking a cue from one of my fave tasty treats: popchips -- ti'm writing his entire post in lowercase letters!
you might have heard that the pretty popstar katy perry is the new face of popchips, but what you might not know is that in honor of this perfect partnership, popchips has embarked on the national pop 'n' pose tour.
miami's pop 'n' pose event took place this past weekend at aventura mall and in case you missed it i'm bringing you all the highlights.
everyone who attended the two day soiree got the opportunity to sign up for the chance to win a trip for two to l.a. to meet ms. katy perry and receive the popstar treatment. you can also enter for your very own chance to win by visiting the popchips' facebook page.

Shortcuts to Fabulous Presents Beachwear Bash 5/3/12:
A Fab Night at the Bliss Spa at the W Hotel
It feels as though my schedule is jam packed with fabulous events and I'm not complaining. But it's my duty to show you guys what goes down at these lush events.
Last night I headed out to the South Beach W Hotel for the "Shortcuts to Fabulous Presents Beachwear Bash" hosted by fellow blogger Ginger from Electric Blogarella.

The Invite
Bliss Spa Terrace
The shindig took place on the terrace of the Bliss Spa located inside the hotel. The event was a kickoff to summer and featured swimwear shops from Kariza and Aquarius, as well as the amazing accessories by Septimo Jewelry.

Guests were treated to complimentary mini spa Bliss treatments such as hand massages, (my favorite) mini massages, oxygen facials and painless eyebrow waxing (Painless? Is that even possible? I'll fill you in in a minute), while they sipped on refreshing cocktails and enjoyed the grooves being spun by the DJ.
***Note: I tried the hand massage which was about 10 minutes long (I really could've used an extra 10 minutes that's how good it was.) I spend my days typing and writing, so I put a lot of stress on my hands and wrists and this was just what I needed to unwind!
My new and amazingly talented friend Claudia, who designs handbags accompanied me and she tried out the painless eyebrow waxing, which she testified to being completely painless and quick. She explained it was painless because of the product they use, so ladies book your waxing appointments at the Bliss Spa.
***Note # 2: Keep your eyes out for my interview with Claudia who designs Diamantina handbags that are effortless chic and sophisticated.

Miami Now TV Launch Party 4/27/2012:
Special Thanks:The Miami Now TV Launch Party
You may have heard about the launch of Miami Now TV last weekend. And while the party was a complete success, a lot of hard work went into the planning and I, along with the Miami Now TV family thought it was highly important to thank all of our wonderful sponsors and guests!
First and foremost we want to thank Ford for sponsoring the #FordFocusFotos PhotoMingle booth, which was a huge hit with all of the movers and shakers of South Florida.
Make sure you check out the all new techno talented Ford Focus with features that were designed to keep you in control of your vehicle at all times!
Thanks to the great folks of Drinx After Work and Viceroy Miami for allowing us to host our party on that gorgeous rooftop that has views of the city like no other building in Miami.
The lovely lady behind the Premier Posh Productions company made one-of-a-kind props like the TV set you see in the picture below just for us! Thank you Princess!
Thank you Vitamin Water for providing Miami Now TV's Blogger Bar and Media Center.
Thanks to Sara from popchips. BTW if you're looking for a new snack to sink your teeth into, these yummy chips are it! Everyone loved them!
How cute are the retro TV set and cake pops that Bella's Cake Boutiq designed for us? Totally cute and so yummy!
Make sure you contact Martha of Bella's Cake Boutiq if you need cakes, cupcakes or cake pops! BTW her chocolate cake pops were to die for!
If you were in attendance then you probably had the opp to try some Vita Coco Coconut Water. Who knew you could package the awesomeness of coconut water into a box? Delish and refreshing!
So there's this really great hair salon that's owned by gorgeous sisters, Sandi and Kailey in Midtown and they specialize in blow drying hair and braids. They sponsored a blo-tastic braid bar.
Make sure to book a hair appointment at blo Midtown the next time you have an event to go. Tweet @themanemuchacha or @thecountress.
We also had some amazing giveaways, so we have to thank the folks who were responsible:
Lastly the Miami Now TV family would like to thank radio personality Tamara G, and news personality Neki Mohan for their support.

IT Girl Expo 3/1/2012:
IT Girls Rejoice at the IT Girl Expo
The It Girl Expo was the "IT" event for all of us who are fashion and beauty junkies!
I had the absolute pleasure of being invited to one of the largest fashion and lifestyle expos that I've seen to date.
As a blogger and lifestyle correspondent for Miami Now TV, I was on full duty, but still managed to have a fabulous time with my colleagues and the two ladies behind the It Girl Expo, Lori and Maria.
Maria is coral and Lori is in teal. By the way I loved both of these dresses!
For all of the ladies, who missed out on this awesome time, don't fret! I've got you covered with the low down.
Blogger Pass
Picture Perfect (great spot to take a minute and snap a pic of you and your gal pals.)
After walking the pink carpet, my girls and I checked in and obtained these tote adorbz passes. BTW you guys should've seen the pink velvet ropes. I wanted to take them with me and set them up in my closet.
One of the things I enjoyed most about this event was seeing how much efforts the girls behind the expo put into getting us bloggers to check it out. They even set up a section for us: the meinto.com blogger's corner.

As I worked the room, I stopped to much on some delicious ready to bake mini cupcakes courtesy of Ready Set Cupcake (so delish), dabbed on some LipSmart gloss that kept my lips shiny and hydrated for the remainder of my night, tried Moscato for the first time from The Naked Grape and of course chatted up a storm with Christopffre from one of my favorite product companies: Bliss.
I also discovered this new and amazing company called a+b=artisan beauty, which specializes in haute couture lip color.
Not sure about what I mean? Basically they customize your lipstick to match your skin tone and undertones. What this really means is that when you wear the red lisptick shade they blended just for you it will always be perfect. The best part is you don't have to ever play guessing games with lipsticks at the makeup counter.
Check out one of the cool whips on display at this year's It Girl Expo.
I'm so glad I was able to attend this fab and fierce event.
As I was heading out the door, I noticed Lori by the exit, and I had to make sure I thanked her again for inviting me. This girl is the epitome of "It Girl" status. Make sure you check out her blog.
So for all of you who missed it, Lori divulged the fabulous news that she will do her best to bring it back this fall. And I'll make sure to keep all my it girls posted!
