HGTV Wine and Design
I have been posting about a lot of events lately. It seems that this is the time of year for design events!
Last night I went to HGTV’s Wine and Design event at the Top of the Rock, an event that celebrated HGTV’s top design talent. I am an avid HGTV watcher (OK, I’m pretty obsessed) from their real estate programming to their competition shows. It’s all in good fun, and I always seem to find something new or inspirational every time I tune in.
Anyway, I had a great time and I thought I’d share a few photos from the event…then we can get back to our regularly scheduled programming.
First, let me just tell you how beautiful the view is from the top. A-ma-zing. And everyone from HGTV is so tall. And tan.
There were probably 100-150 people there, and the wine was a-flowin’.
There were toasted mini HGTV sandwiches…
…and Carter Oosterhouse from Carter Can
Antonio Ballatore from The Antonio Treatment
Sabrina Soto from Get It Sold
David Bromstad from Color Splash
David Bromstad’s fierce Dolce&Gabbana high-top sneaks
Genevieve Gorder
Cindy Stumpo from Tough as Nails (I love her — she is a total badass)
The Design Star judges: Vern Yip, Genevieve Gorder, and Candice Olson. Hopefully Candice will forgive me for asking her to do my Mom’s living room. I get the feeling she gets asked that a lot!
The curly-haired lady in the nerd glasses you see in all of the photographs is me.
LOVE THE PHOTOS! Thanks for sharing and looks like a blast. And three cheers for curly hair and glasses.
Lady, be careful, if you don’t admit how adorable you are we might kick you out of the curly hair and glasses club.
I love David Bromstad! Thanks for the pics!

The Top of the Rock is awesome isn’t it? We were there in January and it was bitter cold, but the view was incredible. Next time we will visit in the spring. New York City is great.
