Showing off my magazine

IMG 5772 300x225   Showing off my magazineLast Thursday night, fashionistas nationwide celebrated Fashion’s Night Out. I had the honor of helping Matt Goss award one talented young designer, Jimi, a first-place distinction, an honor that included getting to spend one day with me at Vegas magazine! I hope I can come up with something glam enough for this creative soul. Afterwards, we set up a Forum Shops booth with Christian Dior Beauty to show off the magazine. It was a girls’ wonderland, makeovers and scents by Christian Dior.

Or look at photos from our cover party with Kaley herself! I had been having a tough time, but I’m so glad  I was able to “grin and bear it” as they say. It was an amazing night!

    You are such a rock starette! You work *so* hard on your magazine, but the finished product is always stunning! Congrats on your ongoing success!

    I grabbed a copy of your magazine from Mandalay Bay last month. My wife couldn’t figure out why I was actually reading a letter from the editor in (what she thought was) a fashion magazine.
    Congrats on your new issue. The cover is great!

    About time you showed this off! Seriously, this is a BIG deal and so very cool that you do it. It seems like a very glamorous gig to most of us, but I know how hard you work on it. That magazine doesn’t write and edit itself. Kudos to you.

    I love the Big Bang Theory too! Your FNO event looked awesome…

    The magazine looks gorgeous Abby.

    Thank you, Ayngelina!

    Don’t you love it, Liz? It makes me laugh so much — and not in a cheesy way like so many other shows.

    Thank you, Andrea. That means a lot.

    Gray, thank you so much for saying that, when you’re one of the few who actually knows the magazine. As always, I love, love, love that you love Vegas!

    I’m so proud of you and your mag! CHAMPAGNE AND DRY ICE MERINGUE!?!!??!?! Why didn’t I have that at my wedding?

  12. Posted September 16, 2011 at 4:22 pm | Permalink

    Haha you would have LOVED the meringue — I bet they can make it in pink!

  13. Posted September 16, 2011 at 6:41 pm | Permalink

    I’m a little jealous.

    That sounds like such a fun night! And even though I know you’re a magazine editor, it was kind of crazy to see your signature at the end of the editor’s letter – so fancy!

  15. Posted September 18, 2011 at 2:55 pm | Permalink

    Ha thanks, Emily! It’s the first time I ever linked to anything in the mag!

  16. Posted September 18, 2011 at 6:21 pm | Permalink

    Ditto what Emily said! Now I totally feel like I know someone famous :) You are seriously a rockstar!

  17. Posted September 18, 2011 at 7:24 pm | Permalink

    Very cool! Exciting events and recognition for your magazine. By the way, I’d love to try that dry-ice meringue treat.

  18. Posted September 19, 2011 at 10:43 am | Permalink

    That is a beautiful magazine cover and I love the layout! I’m going to be emailing you for magazine layout tips.

    I did not know you could eat dry ice ice cream. How was it?

  19. Posted September 19, 2011 at 9:28 pm | Permalink

    Cold and delicious!

  20. Posted September 20, 2011 at 1:11 pm | Permalink

    Congrats Abby! You’re one talented person :) Like others have mentioned, the dry ice treats are something I’d love to try!

    You have one of the most interesting jobs. I know you work hard, but you seem to be having fun at the same time and that’s something to envy. I’d like to win a day with the editor-in-chief of Vegas magazine, too :)

    I’m always loving the covers of your mag, Abby. So glamorous and beautiful.

    Wish I could have been at this event! You know I love you, the magazine, all that jazz. :) <3

  24. Posted September 25, 2011 at 10:04 pm | Permalink

    Awww thank you so much, everyone!

  25. Posted September 26, 2011 at 10:59 am | Permalink

    I love that you work for a magazine, it’s a dream of mine. The final product is just so perfect and glossy and real! I know that you work your ass off to achieve that and it looks beautiful!

    I love Kaley Cuoco in the Big Bang Theory too!

  26. Posted October 1, 2011 at 12:14 am | Permalink

    The Big Bang Theory is one of my favourite shows. I always love Penny’s reactions when Sheldon knocks on her door three times. “Penny. Penny. Penny.” It’s so well written and whip-smart sharp. Congrats on nabbing Cuoco for the cover!
