CMH Fashion Week Fitting 3

Tuesday was our final designer fitting in prep for this year's CMH Fashion Week. 
Over 70 models, countless photographers and videographers and my style team descended upon The Bluestone for what would be the final look through before the big events happening October 12-18.
Outtakes of the fun!

Last night I had the pleasure of co-presenting the collection on 2014 CMH Fashion Week (CMHFW) designer Akili Cooper at the Discover Columbus Expo by CYP (Columbus Young Professionals). While attendees got a sneak peek of one of Akili's CMH Fashion Week designs, they were treated to a fabulous mini collection of evening wear as well.
Thank you CYP and The Vue for hosting us!

Le Chocoholique - Blogger Happy Hour.

bhh6.jpg
As you know by now, chocolate is not my favorite food. In fact, I don't like chocolate at all. But, when there's a chance to see my fellow bloggers over happy hour at Le Chocoholique, I'm there. After all, they do have other goodies (of the liquid kind) to partake in. 
Last week, I was invited to meet a few selected bloggers for an evening of social over cocktails (ok, and chocolate, just not for me). 
What a great group of ladies!

Fashion Redeem'd.

What's your style? 
 
That's a question I've asked myself many times. But on a day in late September, it was all vintage. 
 The ladies from Fashion Redeem'd asked me to do a shoot for them and since I'm a huge lover of vintage, I happily said yes.
Here's a sneak peak of the shoot:

Whatever you choose to call them, they're back. Albeit much more chic than those awful nylon things of many moons ago. This post was inspired by a recent request by The Columbus Dispatch to get my thoughts on 'fanny packs.' Would I wear one? Did I own one? Are they acceptable in today's fashion? Yes, No not yet and yes!
A few of the ones I would wear:

A few weeks ago I broke out a skirt I've had forever but had never worn. I bought it when I lived in NY 10 years ago. Maybe I knew the camo trend would be hot right now....probably not. Paired it here with a mesh crop top from the hot Columbus based brand Dirty Laser.

A Morning at Saks.

Earlier this week I received an invite to a meet & greet with Saks Chanel Assoc. Buyer Kelly Gillen. At first I didn't think I would go but what better way to start the morning than playing in a sea of Chanel?
