Forget the Mall and Shop Local!

Sure, you could camp out all night in front of that department store or mall for Black Friday sales (I shutter just thinking about this), or you could casually stroll into your local boutique, sip on some cider champagne (this sounds awesome Blue Elephant) and purchase some unique gifts for your loved ones or yourself.  I put together a list of local sales happening this weekend.  Check it out!

Tribeza Style Week: Tribeza Fashion Show

Tribeza Style Week came to a close last Thursday night with the Tribeza Fashion Show featuring looks from By George, Feathers Boutique, Moss Designer Consignment, Y and I Boutique, Underwear, Estilo, Service Menswear, c.jane, The Garden Room, Kendra Scott Jewelry, Julian Gold, and Saks Fifth Avenue.  I thought the styling of this show was a step up from last year's as it involved more layering, detail, and texture.  It should come as no shock that my preferred looks of the night came from my personal favorites, Feathers and Moss.  Can I please have one of those colorful sequin dresses?...please?  Trends from this colorful, rich looking, and wearable runway included:

1) fur

2) sequins

3) fringe

4) knee high boots

5) vests for the guys

For some reason I couldn't stop dancing and wiggling in the photo pit, but I managed to get photos nonetheless (except for that one outfit that walked down the runway when the lights went out...)

My Outfit: Austin Fashion Week

Austin Fashion Week has been a blast!  I've been running around like crazy and I'm kinda exhausted.  I haven't had time to photograph any of my outfits except for this one...  Thank you Mom for taking my photos!

My Outfit: Laundry Day!

I've been doing a lot of laundry lately (even more so than usual.)  I can put together outfits a lot better when everything is clean, otherwise I'm running around my house like this: "Ok I'll wear this dress!...Crap, all my nude colored underwear is dirty! Ok, so nothing white...I'll wear this top!  Where are my strapless bras???"  It's disastrous.  And with Austin Fashion Week starting this weekend I need to have all my clothing options available.

You should be happy to know that all my clothes are currently clean, steamed, and hung up in my closet coordinated by color.  Hey, that's what happens after you work a retail job for a year.
