I went to the Seattle Independent Fashion Show with Joanne from Sage Mag, got to meet designers backstage before the show (including the two reality stars from the show Fashion Star), and the event was a huge success with every seat booked! I also got my first free press pass:) So exciting.

Here were my favorites: (All runway shots courtesy of Jami Davis)

Pops of color in the Ampersand collection:

Teal high-low skirt with black in Lizzie Parker’s collection

The coolest pop of color in the form of a knitted necklace from Masha Osoianu’s collection

Intricate knit dresses from Masha Osoianu’s collection

Beautiful white on white outfit from Carole McClellan’s (the winner!) collection

I feel like an ice queen could wear this.

Lizzie Parker’s take on white + grey + deep purple

This top is gorgeous.

Lizzie Parker’s gold on white.

Anne Sylvain’s bag turned clutch by Patricia Raskin

I met her, and she said she was inspired by cars! So cool.

OMG, and these purses are super super soft. The one in the picture is made of deer, ostrich, and alligator. Both bags are the same. It’s a bag that can fold up into a clutch. So incredibly beautiful up close.

Fuchsia for the holidays- in the Lisa Vian Hunter collection
