On the List

Today we’re art gallery hopping to see two of the latest shows arriving here in Charlotte. I know I’ve said this before, but I’ll say it again, art gallery hopping is the perfect way to spend your Saturday. Plus we’re looking forward to visiting one of our favorite restuarants in the South Park area, Bricktops!

On a fashion note… Sezane’s Pre-Fall Collection came out the beginning of the month, Chriselle Lim’s first stand alone collection with Nordstrom will be released on 9/13 and Gal Meets Glam latest collection of dresses and a few new surprises will be arriving 9/19.

Coming next week… My interview with NYC fashion designer INGA-LENA (who will be at Maman in Soho on Sunday, September 9th from 10am-3pm showing of her latest collection during NY Fashion Week) and two artist interviews will be coming to the blog. Stay tuned!
