Maison de Noir Wins!

Austin Fashion Week was amazing this year...lots of work, lots of parties & lots of fashion. My team "Maison de Noir" (see previous post for more info) was the Critic's Choice winner for best Mash Up team! How exciting!

Here we are on stage accepting our "Golden Boot" award!



Sadly we were missing our designer Louise Black who I saw later at the after party. She was the incredible designer of the amazing outfit that Lauren modeled for us.

Here I am in a moment afterward doing my best to be sassy. ;)

Austin Fashion Week

It's here again! Austin Fashion Week and it's going to be bad ass.

Be sure to vote for Tasty Jewelry as your favorite designer by clicking here.

Something new this year; the designers have been put into "Mash Up" groups consisting of randomly selected designers brought together to create one look. Our team "Maison de Noir" submitted our photo for consideration and the actual photograph will then be sold during the Kick Off event this Saturday, August 14th with the proceeds going to Dress for Success. That same look will then be presented on a runway during a fashion show!
