    Each year, this eagerly anticipated exhibition displays thousands of orchids in the country’s largest curated show featuring orchids. In 2013, The Orchid Show dramatically transforms The New York Botanical Garden’s landmark Enid A. Haupt Conservatory into a lush rainforest.

    This year’s exhibition is inspired by the 19th-century craze sparked by a single orchid bloom, which came to be known as Orchidelirium.Scan 164Visitors to the landmark Enid A. Haupt Conservatory will be transported on an epic journey that engages all of thesenses and underscores the allure and intrigue of these exquisite beauties.12

    The Orchid Show: Orchidelirium features:

    Thousands of orchids in a stunning array of colors, sizes, shapes, and textures.

    Highlights of the far-flung adventures of daring explorers who risked life and limb to secure these captivating and exotic flowers from danger- laden jungles around the world for determined collectors.

    Aesthetic delights in the Haupt Conservatory, such as displays of orchids as they grow in the wild, in much the same way the Victorian- era explorers first encountered them, to cultivation in the greenhouse.

    Beyonce Midnight Heat @beyonceparfums

    Beyonce is doing a lot of amazing things lately. I watched the HBO special on her year off and her life. So when I had a change to check out her new perfume, I jumped at the chance! I love this perfume and it wears well throughout the night. The top note is fresh but ends with a swirl of sandalwood and amber.

    It is totally sexy and perfect scent to wear on a night out.  Totally my new go-to!

    The fruity floral gourmand opens with juicy top notes of Dragonfruit, Starfruit and Armenian Plum. The heart is a vivid floral bouquet built upon the Purple Mokara Orchid, Queen of the Night Black Tulip and Purple Peony. Finally, the base seduces the senses with Warm Amber, Patchouli and Sandalwood.
