Thursday night, I was invited to my first EVER blogger event. Elle Magazine and Wella Professionals, with the help of Canopi, invited me to attend a summer refresh blogger event at Charles Scott Salon in Cleveland. I really had no idea what to expect, but knew I wanted to go, if nothing else than to meet other local bloggers. I also felt extremely honored to be invited and involved, and what's the harm in a little pampering now and then?

| We started with a tour of the salon. The building used to be a bank! |
 |
| My friend, Katie, was a trailblazer. The first to get her hair done. |
 |
| Then it was my turn. |
 |
| What does any normal girl do, that just got her hair done? Take goofy pictures in the mirror. |
 |
| Then Katie got her makeup done. |
 |
| And her nails - She is getting married in 2015. She was only doing research. |

| Katie, Me, My mom and our gift bags. We clearly had a blast. |
The challenge I found with dressing for this event lie simply in the unknown. I knew I would be at a salon in Cleveland, so I knew I should dress up, but beyond wearing a skirt, I didn't know what else I wanted to wear. I had a whole day at work to look forward to beforehand, so I couldn't get too fancy with it. I could have wore heels, but I couldn't decide on a pair - I know, hard to believe. I settled on comfort, and it was the right choice. We were on our feet the whole night, talking and meeting new people. Here's a closer look:
