Last week, I was invited to the first ever Zaarly market bazaar! What is Zaarly you ask? It’s an online website that has discounts for handpicked shops and vendors in your local area. They’ve got services like making cupcakes for your party, party packages, driving you to the airport, a handyman, guitar lessons and dog obedience training. They sell items like customized cutting boards, jewelry, portraits, anything you can think of. The best part is that these are local and are from the best of the best.  Right now, Zaarly is only available in Kansas City, San Francisco (food photography workshop, so cool!), Los Angeles (celebrity party package, holla!) and Seattle (adult finger painting kit – ohh la la!)… but feel free to type in your city to get notified when they open up locally for ya!

Can you guess what I bought?  Ummm jewelry of course (from Coki)!  But I seriously considered getting macarons and key lime tarts too…

Had to stop and take some outfit pictures too of course.  And then later that night, I headed to our January 2013 KC blogger event at the hair salon I go to, the Glam Room!

I was so happy to see that Just Swoon made these cookies for the event, the same place that made cookies for Austin’s birthday party!

The event was full of mingling, Stella and Dot jewelry and Bonlook eyeglass shopping, design tips, and $5 waxes.

Oh and in case anyone cared about my outfit details, here ya go. 🙂  Thanks for taking the pictures Erin and Meggy!
