Today I attended the EveryStylishGirl’s Sip N’ Slay event in New York City, and it was exactly the kind of stylish, inspiring, and empowering gathering that makes this city so special. The room was filled with ambitious, fashion-forward women — all sipping, networking, and slaying in their own unique way.
The room came alive with a spectrum of bold, bright colors — hot pinks, lime greens, electric blues. It was beautiful, but I decided to take a completely different approach. Instead of chasing vibrancy, I leaned into a monochromatic palette — polished, elegant, and undeniably sophisticated.
For the occasion, I wore the Raelyn Dress by Miss Circle, in its classic black-and-white design, I became the visual pause in a sea of color. The crisp white collar paired with the sleek black bodycon silhouette gave me an edge that was subtle, but impossible to ignore. While many leaned into boldness through color, I created boldness through contrast.
The Raelyn Dress blends business casual sophistication with vintage-inspired charm, making it a timeless wardrobe essential. Designed in a classic black-and-white combo, it features a crisp white collar and an elegant halter neckline that exude refined elegance.
The high-waist design and slim fit silhouette enhanced my curves, while the bodycon cut kept the look sleek and polished. A subtle back slit gave me effortless movement as I floated from conversations to photo moments, and the invisible zipper created a flawless finish. The dress struck the perfect balance between power and poise — confident enough for networking, yet chic enough to turn heads in the daylight.
The event itself was equal parts networking and celebration. I enjoyed the panels on The Creator Code: Influence, Income & Integrity where creators shared how they’re monetizing their platforms, setting brand standards, and creating content that converts, while staying true to themselves and the Monetize with Meaning panel.
There were moments of laughter, genuine conversations and affirmations. What stood out to me most was the atmosphere — uplifting, empowering, and full of women hyping each other up.
Walking away, I felt inspired and recharged. Sip & Slay reminded me that my goals are within my reach if I just walk in faith and belief and that fashion isn’t just about what you wear — it’s about how you carry yourself, how you connect with others, and how a dress can help you step into the room with a little extra sparkle.
