Last night was a great evening of multiple parties (more to come later...), and the first was a "Perfect Pairings" event from (ri)1 (a fabulous new Rye from Jim Beam) and Matt Bernson Shoes. Now, here at Stylewhipped, we are huge Matt Bernson fans. I have profiled his collection in the past, and can't wait to bring you a preview of what's coming up for Fall. We are such huge fans, in fact, that even I love his darlings-of-the-press flats (and my anti-flat campaign has been very well documented!).
But more on the party. On hand were the super-talented Matt, his amazingly funny sales director Bruce, their adorable publicist Malorie Kaye, and a smattering of fashion-industry insiders, press, and Rye lovers. The folks at (ri)1 did a phenomenal job presenting the new spirit in its super fashionable & sleek bottle, and even had delicious cocktails designed just for this event. And of course on display were some of Matt's covetable new designs (personally, I must get my hands on a pair of those grommeted patent boots!). Editors and stylists alike were ooh-ing and aah-ing over the striking heels and gorgeous neon-tipped ballet flats. And delightfully, we were all generously sent home with a full-size bottle of the delicious Rye (which will absolutely be put to good use at our next cocktail party!).
So make sure you check out both members of this "perfect pairing" online...Matt Bernson shoes can be seen at www.mattbernson.com and you can learn more about (ri)1 at www.ri1whiskey.com!
