Se7en Deadly Sins Fashion Show

October 22, 2010
Columbus Airport Concourse Hotel
Se7en Deadly Sins Fashion Show

I was uber excited to be a spectator at this wonderful fashion show. Anticipating what shoe designer, Lauren Luna, had in store for everyone, I was surprised to also see designs from clothing designers.  The climax of the show would have been when one of the models in body paint came out with a live snake around her neck. That got everyone's attention. Following that model was 3 other models also carrying snakes that grew bigger in size. Lauren featured some fabulous shoes. Take a look at some of the pieces from all of the collections.

Boots I Have Purchased So Far

Fall is here and the weather is changing....UGH. I have been trying to start purchasing boots early whenever I see some. My hunt began at Shoetique owned by Deepika Benjamin. The store is located in Columbus in Town and Country. The store is a great place to find shoes, boots, accessories, etc at an affordable price. I definitely recommend this store. Check out some of my purchases.

Columbus Fashion Week 2010

Last Sunday I attended the Finale runway show for Columbus Fashion Week. I have to say I was quit impressed. The designers that were involved in this wonderful event included names like Danielle Benson (Nontle Jewelry), Tad B, JWORK Ltd., Crys  Lappie (Label Yourself), PamelaTruemper, Laurie B Allen, Aaron Hunter (Ruby Hill), Badcock Apparel, Nina Bagley Furs, and LP Miller of Three Twisted Trees & LP Designs. It is really exciting to see Columbus emerging into a small fashion city. Having attended a Fashion Week show in NYC I can honestly say that Columbus is well on it way to have successful
shows in the future. I have posted the pictures of some of my favorite pieces from the show. Let me know what you think.
