I love organizing events! There is such amazing synergy that happens when creatives come together. Last Friday, the Olympia Downtown Association had their annual Girls Night Out shopping event. Downtown Olympia was radiant with gorgeous weather and happy shoppers, most wearing pink and sporting their bright pink event bags. Great deals on shopping, dining and services were to be found all throughout downtown.
Along with the help of my fabulous Evergreen State College intern, Gabriela, we hosted a fashion show highlighting the extraordinary clothing and shoes of the boutiques in downtown. We had a great team of stylists from Alchemy Salon and Spa http://www.alchemy-salonspa.com/, adorably delicious cupcakes and cookie treats from Mela’s Minis https://www.facebook.com/MelasMinis, men’s fashion from G. Miller http://gmillerolympia.com/, Vivala www.vivalastore.com/, Belleza Ropa www.bellezaropa.com/, Sweet Life www.shopsweetlife.com/ Hot Toddy www.hottoddyolympia.com/ Bonaventure Shoes www.bonaventureshoes.com/ Metro www.metropiercing.com/ Jinjor www.facebook.com/pages/JINJOR-BOUTIQUE/347144831293 and some refreshing sparkling pear and apples wines from the Olympic Wine Merchant provided by Nathan Peppin of Peppin Photography, my studio mate.
Here’s the final runway walk of all the models. All of these looks can be found in downtown Olympia boutiques. Holler if you need to know where a specific look is from and we will happily direct you to that boutique!
Thanks to all who helped with the successful show!
