The Recap: Fashion Rush Miami

So this weekend I was able to attend Fashion Rush in Miami (during Mercedes Benz Fashion Week).  I did a pre-event interview with one of the event organizers Lynsee K. (of LHB) see that post here. 

Okay on to the fun stuff..

The event took place on Saturday at Bamboo (a club in South Beach Miami, I will do a review on this separately).  Upon walking in I must say I was truly impressed, the venue was absolutely beautiful.  There was a red carpet set up with a backdrop that referenced the events name (Fashion Rush).  As you walked deeper into the venue there was a photo booth (a really great idea) followed by vendors one of which included a cupcake company (see picture below).

The actual fashion show took place in the venues main room which was very modernly decorated...I was a huge fan of the decor within the venue (did I say that already).  There were a total of five designers which did include swimwear (I happened to love these the most, which is probably because it was sooo hot down there)


I actually got a chance to meet with the events organizers Lynsee (of LHB) and she's an awesome chick as well as the events other organizers Bruce and Joe (New Classic Ent.)  I was really impressed with the flow of things especially because this was the first Fashion Rush Event.  The designers were great, it had me ready to revise my swimwear collection but I will let some of the photos speak for that.  Overall the event was great the organizers get an passing grade in my book.

Up next.... Fashion Rush will be in Minneapolis so if your in the area be sure to check it out!

Be sure to check out what I wore to Fashion Rush here

Hair of the day: All Pinned Up

In the spirit of protective styling I decided that I was going to wear my hair up.  Keep in mind that this updo is a couple of days old.  This updo was created from a super old flat twist out that was done on wet hair.
