Fashion Show Post Script

Fashion Show Post Script

So, it has been a week since our Mad Hatter Tea Party and I finally feel that I can move on to the next task. You wouldn't believe all the behind the scenes things that happen to make it all work, both before and after. Have to say Pinterest is my friend. Found some great ideas for invites and decorations on there. 

So it all starts with a fun theme, then it's deciding what the invite should look like, how we should decorate and what kind of food/drink we should serve - that all fits in to the theme. Of course, then I have to pick a fun outfit because I love to dress up. You have to make sure the alcohol folks know you are having a party. This is the first time I was visited by the Liquor Control Board and we have been doing this for 10 years. It was a bit unnerving but it went fine. 

You have to make sure to coordinate with a clothing store and get all your models sized and fit. Then the best part, picking shoes to go with. The night of, we always close early, order pizza and start decorating. There is a last min check to make sure clothes match shoes since the initial match was done with text pics. Then making sure you have a script, listing shoes and then a side list of everything else you want to say, people to thank. Of course you need door prizes which means door prize entry forms. Can't forget extra chairs for seating

Have to make sure invites get out in a timely manner - of course they do say that Bellingham is a last minute town! Then you cross your fingers and hope people come. We usually have between 40-50 women there. I hope everyone has a good time. I love putting them on!!!! It's fun to come up with new themes.

After it is all over, clean-up put the store back together, make sure all the shoes get put back out, especially if you borrowed some from a display. Return the chairs. Then go home by 10pm, put your feet up and have a glass of wine! Well, deserved. 

The next day, time for thank yous - hand written for as many as you can. Then of course you have to post pics on FB and Twitter. Return everything you borrowed. Clean all the dishes. Apologize to your hubby for making the house such a mess for the event and then promise him that it will be better next time. Of course, he knows better!

Accessories Show - Day 1

Accessories Show - Day 1


We just finished our first day at the Accessories market in Vegas. No, not all of these gals are from 12th Street Shoes. We happen to run into these gals at  the Eric Michaels booth and come to find out, they are the cousins of Allie, who works at 12th Street Shoes. Such a small world!

Saw lots of great stuff today. Bought some amazing Nino Bossi handbags! Love all the new colors - the oranges and the turquoises. I think the Nino Bossi bags were my favorite of the day.  We even found some super fun fingerless gloves. They normally just shop for Spring but these were too cute to resist.

The best part of the day was when Gail realized that she was actually wearing two different shoes. Luckily she had another pair in her purse so she was able to switch them out. Had quite the laugh over that. So looking forward to tomorrow - all shoes and nothing but the shoes!!!! Will give you a full report tomorrow! Night!
