Shecky’s Girls Night Out kicked off officially Wednesday night at SIR Stage in NYC and as one of their beauty and fashion contributors it was only right for me to cover the event. Now I am no newbie having covered/attended numerous Shecky’s events but I did decide to take a break from it due to the repeat of vendors and the scene becoming a bit routine.This time around I was back in the vibe of a Girls Night Out and I couldn’t wait to dive in like my very first time.

Shecky’s Girls Night Out is all about having a great night of shopping with your girlfriends, there’s vendors with trends in fashion, accessories, skincare, beauty food etc.… Most vendors offer a discounted Shecky’s rate allowing you to score cheaper deals for your must have purchase. I scored these two fabulous rings from AMA Designs for only $25. You and your chicas can enjoy free alcohol or non-alcoholic drinks (the spot where you will see all the ladies) great beauty makeovers if you’re looking for a quick beauty glow, a goodie bag filled with new products from some great brands and the ticket prices ranges from $10-$35. Sounds like a sweet deal!

This time around I checked out these fabulous vendors
