Yesterday I had the pleasure of being invited to Phoenix Fashion Week Runway Beauty Forecast Event! It is a private event that consists of bloggers, photographers, models and TV Broadcasters, along with sponsors from Leidan Mitchell Model Citizen, Sonatas Restaurant, Clever Koi, and Central Wine. The whole event is based on the upcoming Phoenix Fashion Week runway show occurring on October 5th - 7th and their partnership with the Leidan Mitchell Model Citizen Salon. They will be the official hair sponsors for the Contemporary Show on Friday night at PHXFW! The Salon is located in the urban streets of downtown Phoenix and hidden in between a boutique wine bar and edgy restaurant. The wine bar is called Central Wine, it is actually attached to the salon and is only divided by a small hallway. Wine and a fresh blow dry, like seriously how cool is that? Right across from the two is Clever Koi Restaurant, which can be seen through big glass windows while sitting in a salon chair, talk about serious people watching. [LOL] The food that they had provided was outstanding but the one thing that stood out to me the most was the Vegetarian Fried Rice! I seriously could have eaten a whole bowl of it and been completely content with life! I have never been there to actually sit and dine but you best believe that is now added to the list. Sonatas Restaurant was also a sponsor at the event, they are located in north Scottsdale and specialize in European cuisine. I actually worked there for a short while during their first few weeks of opening. The restaurant is huge and absolutely gorgeous, with amazing food and drinks to match! On the other side they even have a small coffee shop/ juice bar that opens up early before the restaurant so that the yogis next door and local businessman can grab their morning dose before their day starts! This place is great for an afternoon lunch or a romantic date night, so I would highly recommend you go and try them out. Besides the food and wine, the absolute best part of the evening was being able to mix and mingle with bloggers and influencers that are interested in the same things you are, so that from there relationships are built and future projects may emerge. The Top 40 Models of PHXFW attended the event along with a few veterans from previous years and may I say everyone looked amazing. The core team of Fashion Week; Brenna Moses and Dynelle Rodriguez along with the Director Brian Hill, really push to make fashion a leading force in Arizona and with each year that comes by they get closer and closer to achieving that goal. I am lucky that I have had the privilege of being a part of that team for five years now and have learned not only about the fashion industry but about myself as well. Overall the event was a success and I had an amazing time. Keep an eye out for future events to come I will definitely be letting you guys know so that you can have some experiences of your own. Slay and Stay Fashionable My Loves!
