Bonfaire: Your key to next season's hottest trends

Drobers, what if we told you that there was a way to get your hands on next season's hottest designer shoes, bags, and jewelry right now? Wait! Don't pinch yourself, because you are not dreaming!
Meet Bonfaire, our latest obsession. 
 This innovative website allows its members to preview and pre-order accessories from the upcoming season, each item and collection carefully selected by the Bonfaire team. What's more, Bonfaire claims to be "obsessed with finding you the best," and ensures that all of the merchandise available on its online store is of the highest quality and utterly unique. Are you obsessed yet?! 
If by small some chance you aren't, you will be after you take a look below at some of the highlights from Bonfaire's preview event on January 30th.

We are completely lusting over this chic Katherine Kwei fur tote!



There is no doubt you'll stand out in one of Anton Heunis' stunning statement necklaces.


Our other new obsession: Aimee Kestenberg's luxurious one-of-a-kind handbags.

We are in love with Thalé Blanc's crystal cheetah cuffs.... So adorable!

  And we loved absolutely everything by CC Skye.

 
Last but not least, we fell head over heels (get it?!) for these edgy-girly Ivy Kirzhner boots. Must have!

The Bonfaire site aptly suggests "You already make your own statement — let Bonfaire provide the punctuation." We know our Drobers are always ahead of the curve when it comes to making a fashion statement, and that is why we know you will absolutely love Bonfaire.
(But don't just take our word for it, see for yourself and sign up now to shop the collections at www.bonfaire.com)

MyDROBE's a Hit at Wendy Walk Charity Event



MyDROBE was absolutely honored to be involved in the second annual Wendy Walk cocktail night, a charity event that raises money for Liposarcoma research. Once we had been invited to run the raffle event, MyDROBE gave one lucky winner an array of MyDROBE goodies, a wardrobe tool map of Manhattan with marked "War Free Zones," a discounted purchase from Campbell Fine Jewelry, and most importantly, an opportunity to upload the winner's entire wardrobe to our online platform! Jealous, #Drobers?!


Pictured above are Ali Landes (right) and her best friend Becca Wenner (left). In 2010, Wendy's three children, Ali (pictured above), Matt and Jackie, created the Wendy Walk to support their mom in her battle with Liposarcoma. Wendy was diagnosed with Liposarcoma in 2008 and has since failed seven chemotherapy protocols and undergone four major surgeries lasting over twelve hours each. Many of Wendy's organs have been removed, and her strength has been tested, but she continues to be an inspiration to others with her determination and perseverance.



Bummed that you missed out on being a part of this incredible event? Never fear, Drobers. The Wendy Walk's biggest event takes place on April 28th in Central Park. Come be a part of this wonderful organization! You just might see a few people from the MyDROBE Team... We'll be the ones looking fabulous in some hot Nike sneakers and workout gear.

Prepping for Prom

3. Kaley Cuoco in Romona Keveza
4. Jordan Sparks in Nicole Miller

2. Jane Lynch in David Meister Signature 
3. Jenna Elfman in Balmain - the accessories are her downfall here

Excess Fabric
MyDROBE's Top 3 Excess Fabric Flops
1. Sigourney Weaver in Lanvin
2. Anne Hathaway in Giambattista Valli
3. January Jones in Prabal Gurung
These gowns were so close to success, but alas excess fabric and details cluttered what should have been a simpler vision.

There it is Drobers, the stars who stole our hearts, and a few that broke them...
