626 Night Market :: Den.m Bar

For those of you in Southern California, you may have known about the 626 Night Market. That happened on Saturday this past weekend. We were there in support of den.m bar's booth. Some of you may know, some of you may not. If it seems like I write about den.m bar a bit it is because the friendboy is part owner of the company (this is recent). I have yet to own a pair of my own. But please know that anything I review is my own opinion.

I know that for some of you who did end up going to the Night Market, it was a zoo! I saw from our booth. We were planning on walking around but opted to stay in our own space.. truthfully, it was safer! I saw massive crowds from where we were standing. Friends of ours came by to visit because well, that's all they could do. There was no place to walk. Other friends of ours ended up leaving because they couldn't even get in! As much of a mess as it was, I take it as a learning experience for the committee in charge of planning and for us vendors. While many may have thought it "sucked," I think this allows room for growth and improvement. Would I go next time? Perhaps. Perhaps I'll wait a few rounds when they've worked out the kinks and the hype has died down. Afterall, this is the first time Southern California has EVER had a Night Market.

I don't have a ton of pictures of our surroundings but I do have a few snapshots from den.m bar's view.

Did we mention that we now have colored denim?

Eye Candy




Can I just share with you how excited I am to get new glasses? I am waiting for my new Dior Croisette eyeglasses to come back from the lab. I just sent ordered lenses for them yesterday so I should be getting them back in sometime next week. I am ecstatic!





I also ordered some new sunglasses from Gucci! I know this isn't the best photo. But I wanted to show you the color! Apparently, Gucci isn't offering this Blue Havana gradient on their website. You can only get these from your local optical shops. I'll have to take some photos with these this weekend so that you can see them!

By the way, if you're in the SoCal area, Pasadena is hosting a "626 Night Market". There will be tons of booths, food, and fun. Come and hang out and enjoy some of the Asian festivities! Den.m Bar will be there! If you want to know more about making an appointment, visit their website!


Anyway, that's my glasses spiel for now. Enjoy your weekend everyone!
