Die for these.
This past week was the highly anticipated inaugural NOLA Fashion Week!
Since I live, work and go to school in Baton Rouge, an hour away from New Orleans, I missed out on more events than I would have liked to. Even though I came straight from the office and headed back to studio after to work some more (god I cannot wait to graduate), I was sure not to miss Creating a Compelling Voice, a discussion on national blogs and local fashion. The conversation was on everything from business tips to cheeky exchanges of blog name regrets. The panel of bloggers leading the discussion were incredibly relatable and offered great advice... and their style? Amazing. Check out their blogs:
Btw, the NOLAFW event was held at the insanely fabulous Martine Chaisson Gallery on Camp Street. (The owner, Martine, is a gorgeous, accomplished women in her 20s! So impressive to own a gallery of that caliber at that age. Hats off to her - she's living the dream!)
Keiko + Bobby, on the far end, are the cutest couple! And can we just talk about how awesome is the name Keiko?

Blogging is serious business.

Gambit Reunion! Remember this?
With Juley + Lindsey from Saucy Glossie / Micah, my long time hairstylist and owner of 1699
One of my best friends. Love him to pieces.
So sad that the week had to come to a close. The shows were flawless (check out a sneek peek here, courtesy of Ordinarily Urbane). The parties phenomenal. Everything exceeded expectations which were already high! Hats off to everyone who had a hand in making it all possible and a big thanks to Andi Eaton, Rachael LaRoche and Nicholas Landry, founders of NOLAFW, for dreaming big! Cheers guys! Cannot wait 'til the next one.

Aw, I'm so jealous you got to go to NOLAFW. I absolutely adore Rach and wish I could have been there. From all the photos I've seen around the blog world, it looks like it was an amazing time! Hopefully it will only get bigger and better from here and I'll be able to make it next time!

Everyone and everything looked just fabulous and I love it how the atmosphere still seemed to have been really cozy. You're just a beauty, amazing hair! Good to know who's behind it now, ha
P.S. Thanks a lot for the super sweet shout out, Rachel! Having just gotten back from my vacation last week, I'm still tryign to get back into the swing of things internet-wise and although I have thanked you for the mention on my blog's FB page, haven't had a chance to stop by and comment until now!
