During Advertising Week New York 20, I attended a couple of luncheons at Serra Birreria. The beautiful thing about New York is that you will probably never know all the restaurants and even as a native New Yorker, I’m still getting introduced to new places to wine and dine. During Days 3 and 4 of Advertising Week, I finally got to experience Eataly. Finding Serra was a task on its own but once you learn to maneuver through Eataly, you’ll become accustomed to navigating through the copious merchants that the…

Advertising Week New York 20 Exceeded My Expections
I started off Advertising Week New York 20 eager to gain new insights about the creator economy and actually thought I could attend at least 10 sessions per day but that was not the case. Upon entry, on day 1, I realized AWNY 20 is certainly not like other conferences. From brand activations by TikTok, Netflix, Instacart, Meta, Snapchat, Canva & so many more, along with the thousands of marketers heading to sessions or catching a bite in the Oasis Lounge, I knew this is not the average conference. Stopping…
Brunch at Agenda Astoria For Marllory’s Birthday
I recently celebrated my best friend, Marllory’s birthday with brunch at Agenda in Astoria, New York. While I’m used to raving about my brunch experiences (because brunch is life), I wasn’t completely impressed by this particular experience. Upon entry, I was seated at the table of 20 next to Marllory’s sister, Maoly whom I love so much! Once Marllory arrived, we were able to order drinks. We all indulged in the bottomless brunch menu that included unlimited mimosas with a meal. I ordered my favorite brunch meal – eggs benedict…

Get Out of Your Way – Creator Economy NYC
Are you getting in your own way? I recently decided to get out of my way and it has elevated my life. The things that would have stopped me in my tracks no longer matter because I decided that I can’t keep getting in my way. If you’re not new to Befitting Style, then you know personal appearance is very important to me. My amazing mum raised me to always look my best. A couple of weeks ago, while being out and about, my Zara crop top ripped. If this…
B&H Photo Capturing Fashion at NYFW SS25
I can’t think of a better way to kick off New York Fashion Week than hanging with B&H Creators by B&H Photos and learning to capture fashion with Canon. I grew up watching YouTube and noticed that a lot of my faves used Canon cameras for their content. Although I found that interesting, I still never cared to use a Canon camera. Once I created my YouTube channel, I began filming with my Nikon D5500. I’ve only created with Nikons and played around a bit with Sonys so it was…
Fashinnovation Worldwide Talks 2024 – NYFW SS25
New York Fashion Week started a bit early for me as I kicked off the SS25 season at Fashinnovation Worldwide Talks which was filled with a wealth of knowledge. I’ve never attended a conference during NYFW but there’s a first time for everything. At Fashinnovation, industry leaders discussed sustainability, entrepreneurship, economic development, and trends. I threw on a purple and green plaid dress and went to the 11th annual Fashinnovation Conference. The sustainability panel resonated with me as I don’t believe we should throw away our clothes. Clothing should be…
Stripes and Solids During Tech Week
I recently learned about Tech Week and I knew I had to attend. As you know I’m not a tech girl but being a style-lover is just a part of me. My love for community building gets me excited about categories far beyond fashion, style, and beauty. I threw on a red and white top with a white mini skirt to check out a few tech week events and see what this new world is all about. The beauty of Tech Week is that there are businesses of various sizes…
