Claudine Gumbel, the Caravan Girl, gives us an update on Justin Beiber, Passion Pit and getting up close and personal with The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
On a plane, sitting next to a couple who can’t keep their hands off each other … Radoid!! Keep reading…
I am a fan of LOVE and ROMANCE. A buddy of mine once said that you know you love someone when you can’t keep your hands off them and you always want to be around them…. I think that sounds like a plan. Anyway have an interesting play mix of Justin Beiber (who THINK PR just did an event with for Wango Tango) and Ben Lee and Passion Pit…
Speaking of Passion Pit, KIN did an event with them last week, I didn’t catch that one but I did catch The Ting Tings. It was a fun night … I finally met Prince Peter and hung out with some buddies. I always try to make new ones…
So the branding was terrific, the venue brilliant and it was just a cool time.
Here are some pics…
Oh and DJ Manero was there sporting some Brooklyn tees….
So then all week long I had Upfronts…
Check out the stories we wrote
We met some amazing talented people and I saw some of my favorite actresses… Katrina Bowden + Bree Williamson and I met Olivia Munn, who is by far one of the coolest girls out there…. Rad to the 100th power. Everyone we met was super and I can’t wait to see all these new shows.
Here are some pics from the event + I plan to post more…..

Anyway I am on journey to Hawaii…. I call it a “journey” because that is what it in a way! Everything is a life experience.
Definitely read the Alchemist if you haven’t it talks in a way of our journey… Sometimes the treasure isn’t concrete.
Oh when I was getting on the plane I saw this little girl…poor puppy painted pink.
Speaking of journeys… I was on The Real Housewives of New Jersey because Gia was in the Caravan fashion show. It is amazing how many people watch this show on Bravo. Right on! I like those ladies and Gia was a hoot. But it wasn’t the fact I was on the show that was cool to me because I always feel like a dork on tv it was 1. The fact I heard from so many people – like the show reminded people I am here and I reconnected with some buddies which I loved!!!! 2. The dresses I created were featured on the show which to me – is awesome! I designed several dresses under Caravan and they featured them including the dress I made for Gia + the feather dresses… I was so happy!
Here are some photos from the show:
I graduated from Marist College with a BA in Communications, with a concentration in PR and Marketing and a minor in Fashion Merchandising. I've worked with top companies such as Anthropologie, Levis, Urban Outfitters, Rock & Republic, Converse, Fila, and many more. Over the last twelve years, I've organized over five hundred fashion shows and events, including a fashion show at Sony Studios for 4,000 guests and the first ever fashion show underground in the subway for designer YEOHLEE. I've also organized several pop up stores and always had an interest in retail. In 2005, I launched Caravan, a new way to look at shopping. I've been lucky to have actresses such as Penelope Cruz, Eva Mendes, Sophia Bush, Kristen Bell, Carmen Electra, Katrina Bowden, Jessica Szhor, Taylor Momsen, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, and many others visit its doors.
