Recap: South First Fashion Show

When a fashion show starts out with a girl wrapped in a giant python Britney Spears "I'm A Slave For You" style and dances to a tribal drum beat, you know it's going to be a fun show.  But, fashion shows in South Austin are almost always a blast.  A little on the cooky side sometimes, but always unique, South Austin fashion never disappoints.  (And just FYI, I couldn't stop taking photos of that snake girl because it was way too cool.  And my desire to own a snake has now been rekindled.)

The South First Fashion Show, which was held at boutique Mana Culture last Friday, was put together by the non-profit organization Cause to Celebrate.  The mission of Cause to Celebrate is to support local Austin businesses and charities by putting on fun events such as fashion shows and parties.

Lovely Austin Concert Series

Lovely Austin is kicking off their summer concert series with live music from Deadtown and Whiskey Shivers and free lonestar.  If you've never been to Lovely Austin, it is a boutique featuring consignment clothing as well as contemporary lines from local designers.  I personally have yet to check out Lovely Austin so I am looking forward to seeing what it has to offer and of course reporting back to y'all about what I find.  Plus, how can I pass up live music and free lonestar?
