Calling all Fashionistas! Charleston Fashion Week has extended their deadline for designers to apply for their spring bridal show. The show itself is slated for March 24, 2012. Do you have the designs to be the next biggest thing in bridal? Here’s your chance to make it happen!
Erin here wishing you all a happy Monday! Kate and I both share a morning ritual of watching The Today Show while getting ready for work. Great way to get the day started as well as it usually becomes the topic of conversations as we get into the office!
According to The Today Show’s reports this morning, braids are the hottest hair trend at the moment. So much so that entire salons dedicated to hair braiding alone! At John Barrett’s Braid Bar stylists are going way beyond the normal french braid with their amazing pleats! They report that a good braid can stay put in your hair for a couple days making it quite the easy style to maintain. As someone with long hair but absolutely no talent in fabulous braids, this is very exciting news to me!
Of course, Soiree brides are always ahead of the trends. Thanks to our skilled stylist, Kristy, our bride Hillary rocked the most beautiful braid for her nuptials in 2008. It truly made her entire look over the top glam! Here are a few pics for you before I get to the mirror and start practicing!
Happy Monday! Today marks officially 1 week until school starts back here in Charleston. With two young boys you know what that means…back to school shopping! Now I know I am supposed to be shopping for the kids, but I couldn’t help wishing I could do a little shopping for myself when I came across these fantastic laptop bags by Charleston local Alesya Opelt. Tired of chunky clunky laptop bags, this savvy lady set out to design a new bag that would complement her wardrobe…not bring it down. Well, I think she hit the mark. The Alesya Bag is the perfect accessory to start the new school year or make you excited to get back in the office!
The bag comes in three colors. My favorite is the Kelly Green!
