Since shopping for a party is sometimes better than the party itself, you might as well combine the two.

While we wouldn’t suggest getting wasted on the drinks from Fusion Liqueur, getting “waisted” with a free suede belt from Y.E.S. for a $150 purchase is perfectly acceptable!

You’ll have the chance when Bloomingdale’s stores nationwide host a Girls’ Night Out event on Thursday, April 20 from 6-8 p.m.

Spend $250 and get a $25 gift certificate - and a free excuse to go shopping again between April 21 and May 4.

We love the fashion exhibits at FIT and this one is no different. From the FIT museum:

Lucien Lelong (1889-1958) was the last in a long line of couturiers who were masters of every aspect of haute couture. Unlike today’s couturiers who are primarily fashion designers, Lelong combined a keen business sense with a refined eye for modern design. He hand-picked designers such as Pierre Balmain, Christian Dior and Hubert de Givenchy and developed their talents in order to realize his vision of the fashionable woman.
