Fashion Show Mishaps

We are big supporters of the chic boutique Em & CO, as you may know from previous posts. We love their stylish, fun and classy events. However, this past week we attended their poolside fashion show at the Palazzo and were VERY disappointed. First, the hor douerves never showed up, the band was a no show and the fashion show started an hour and a half late! The event was completely unorganized!

Although once the show started,  the event started to pick up with featured designs from the Em & CO boutique and Pamela G swim wear. Monique StaTeena from Americas Next Top Model (host of the event) closed the show beautifully and salvaged what was left of a poor planned night! Monique could not have been any sweeter. We were in awe with her kindness and professionalism. Although this event was not their best, I am pulling for Em & Co! *fingers crossed for a BIG recovery*

Here are pics from our night! Check out a few of my favorite pics from Pamela G swim wear!

Gown Wow

Ja'toi and I visited Em&Co, a Los Angeles boutique featuring high end fashion clothing and accessories. We've been a couple of times before and love the fact that they have great trunk shows and feature emerging LA designers. We always make great connections at the boutique and enjoy seeing them often to keep the relationships. The photo on the right is from their mini red carpet and step & repeat wall. We can't wait to see the photos online.

On Thursday, Celebrity designers, Angela Dean and Fedor were being featured for their couture gowns in honor of the Golden Globes. We fell in love with some of the gowns and decided to share the fabulousness.

We even had a chance to meet with Designer Angela Dean. She was gracious enough to share how she got started and what celebrities she has worked with. We love such humble and talented people! Dean has been in the fashion industry for over 20 years, created her label DeanZign, and has dressed Oprah Winfrey, Patti Labelle, Queen Latifah, Katy Perry, and Paris Hilton. Here our 2 gowns we loved at the boutique.

Sorry, it's blurry! Designer Angela Dean & the red dress Paris wore for her fragrance photoshoot.

Cha Cha Cha!

How fabulous is this gown?

It's also the dress that Paris Hilton wore for her Can Can fragrance photo shoot.

Another Angela Dean gown we loved, is this little sexy number! I'm starting to see more of this trend: the long sleeve, mini sequined dress and I love it! All I need is a glamorous event to attend or make a trip to Vegas.

We didn't have a chance to meet with Designer Fedor, however we must show you this one amazing gown. The back and front are so equally amazing. Both sides wowed me and will make a statement from whichever way you walk. Again,love the many sequins and also, the cut out holes in the sleeves lined with pearls. All the details are so well thought out!

Viva la Ventidue!

fire engine redfire engine red

When you think of great Italian Designers you immediately think Prada, Valentino Dolce & Gabanna and Versace. Italian fashion oozes sophistication with an edgy twist. Well new to join the club of greats is L.A. based but, Italian designer Barbara Rosin of Ventidue. The color choices and attention to detail is definitely going to put this upcoming Italian designer at the top with the greats!

                                                

After checking out the Emerging Designer’s of L.A. fashion show hosted by Kimberly Cole and Em& CO I fell in love with the new line VENTIDUE!  The collection of sophisticated leather sent chills throughout the room! Every piece was tailored to perfection. Her rock-and- roll touch for sexy out going women is getting ready to take over the streets of L.A.! Everyone PLEASE be on the look out for her daring collection!

P.S. check out the pictures, I guarantee a hit!  Leave a comment and tell us what you think about Ventidue.

Krazy for Km2!

Erica: We were first introduced to Km2 Shoes at our internship and instantly fell in love with these beauties. They are definitely "Shoes to live in" as their slogan goes. We had to chance to meet 2 of 3 founders, who happen to the Gelber sisters. Megan and Katelyn are dolls and have a great eye for fashion and details.

Ja'Toi: We were lucky enough to attend the fashion show at Em & Co featuring the trendy new customized shoe brand Km2! They showcased  their new line in a peep show style. Models walked the runway showing feather, lace and jeweled studded shoes.  Now as a stylist let me just say girls, I love love love, these shoes! They bring out the sexy, classic, and funky style every girl has hidden within them!

Check out photos from the October 8th Fashion Show!
