Fashion Show Recap!

A good time was had by all at the Wild & Woolly Fashion show on Thursday. Big thank you Dax Alpaca for providing the beautiful sweaters for the models to wear and also to Kelli at Studio Beausoleil for air brush tanning all the gals. They looked fabulous!

We have posted all the pics from the evening on our facebook page - just following the link below: http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=lf#!/album.php?aid=212691&id=55725051171&ref=mf

Thank you everyone for coming!

Wild & Wooly Fall Fashion Show

Shoe Show Day 2

Ahhhh....feels good to be back at the hotel in my bed. I really have decided that velcro was the best invention ever, especially when you have to take shoes on and off all day. Favorite brand of the day... Fly London! They were awesome! We are going to have to relook at our orders to make sure we do not have too much grey or indigo. Big colors for Spring next year.

We are also contemplating a new brand - Tsubo. Love them. Check them out here and tell us what you think http://www.tsubo.com/ Very fun line. Tomorrow, it is all about handbags. Yeah!

Shoe Show Day 1

We had a great time yesterday at the show! There were some great new looks for Spring. There is a new line called Earthies - a super fashion forward line from Earth. Oh, yes, I said Earth. You are not going believe them. High heels - fast styles - loved them! Biggest dissappointment of the day came from Sofft. So very sad, didn't like anything. Not sure what to do. Do you buy or skip a season. The jury is still out.

We were able to order more Fidjis. Yeah! Check them out below. These will be coming in the next couple of weeks. It on't let me delete the pic and turn it the right way, so just turn your computer to the side so you can see them : )The colors are more subdued for Spring. Plum, green and nude are the big colors. Gladiator has not gone away. Lots of strappiness on all the sandals. I think you are going to like them.

Boots & Fall Styles

I can't believe that boot season is upon us already! Fall 2010 is going to be great for boots. Western influences are going to be huge! Distressed leathers and of course everyone's favorite...the shoe bootie! Along with boots, stirrup pants are going to be making a comeback, Who would of thought we would see those again in our lifetime. Skinny jeans are still in and stirrups just make them easier to keep in your boots. You are going to lots of layering of tights and socks. All of it worn with skirts - I love these looks. Next time I will post some pics of how to wear the shoe bootie - that is one of our most asked questions.
