Not Your Mother's Fashion Show

From the moment I woke up, at 2 in the morning, until the moment I walked the runway behind the Belladonna Marie models, exhiliration was the word of the day.

With the help of my trusted friend and MUAH, Janelle Hayden, the Belladonna Marie girls rocked natural beauty, like no other. Coffee runs, fashion tape, last minute practice walks, signing thank you cards, flat iron burns and backstage drama were just the beginnings of this wonderful day!

One of the best parts was having my little girl, May, in the audience. When I walked out and she cried, "mommy", my heart completely melted.  It made the show!

After the runway, I talked to fellow Vancouver designer, Seth Aaron.  He mentioned how 'great' Nina Garcia, from Project Runway/Marie Claire, is.  He also mentioned how his life has completely exploded, in a good way, since the show (PR). 

To top it all off, women of all ages approached me after the show.  I think I have my first real fans!! Apart from my dedicated friends, of course.

The show was a success, and the best part is it was all for charity. Way to go, Vancouver!

Not Your Mother's Fashion Show

How exciting is that title? I recently had the opportunity to meet the owners of Sixth Street Gallery, in Vancouver, WA. Along with being introduced to fellow designers from 'across the bridge', it was an excited night. I am even more thrilled to be a part of this great fashion show.

Kicking off the season, on August 7th, it is promised to be an afternoon full of fashion and fun! Not only that, but it is also a great opportunity to give back. The proceeds from all ticket sales, along with a portion of all designer's sales, is going towards great non-profits like "Dress for Success", local elementary schools and the Arts!

How great is this! See additional information on www.sixthstreetgallery.com . I hope to see you there!
