follow up: visit to Weiden + Kennedy to see SWISS MISS

So, friday was amazing! Mike and I went down to W+K at 11:30 and picked out our spot among fellow designers, "Weidens" and over excited design students who were talking a little too loudly about their opinions on packaging design (hoping to be overheard and 'discovered' by the "Weidens" I mentioned).Here's a few photos from the show!

That's Mike and I about to sit down in the top right hand corner of the photo!  

Tina was really inspiring to listen to, here are a few stats:
* She started her blog in May of 2005, and today has an average of over 5 million visitors!
* Her first client was the MOMA - what a way to start out huh?!
* She doesn't like the word "blog" and hopes the term will be quickly antiquated...

Here's a shot looking up through the W+K "catwalks", note the "bird's nest" up top, it's pretty amazing!
Probably the most exciting part of it all was running into a favorite childhood friend who is now working at W+K! I'm so proud of you Carrie! (We're up on the rooftop deck - so fabulous!)
