Last week was a very exciting week in the world of Wendy. There was much wedding planning (yes, I have the dress, and no, I won't tell what it looks like), get togethers with friends, attempts to work out, and of course something I'd been looking forward to for a while - American Girl in Chelsea's second event.
This event - Pink Diamonds and Pink Champagne - was held to raise money for a cause close to my heart. My grandmother is a 15+ year survivor of breast cancer, and as such, I try to run as many 5Ks, raise awareness, and show as much support as possible.
This event, held at Geog Jensen (HINT HINT, f-hubs), had it all. Manis provided by the Chelsea Day Spa (I have a course of manis and pedis booked - you should too), hand treatments provided by QMS Cosmetics (their treatments are life changing, I kid you not), champagne and pink cupcakes on arrival (which I consider a well-rounded meal), and of course some great shmoozing with other American Girls, and even some British Girls who enjoy the company of us Yanks.
I am amazed at AG's ability to not only put together a great event, but to work the room as well. Everyone had a great time and left happy (and with great goody bags)!

For those who haven't discovered it yet, American Girl in Chelsea is pretty much the bible for us expat ladies, and anyone else living in London! Looking forward to the next event!
