Happy Friday everyone!!!! It has been a rough week for me for various reasons so a fashion show was just what the fashion doctor ordered. I was fortunate enough to be invited to the Prêt à Porter designs fashion show which took place on the roof top of the beautiful L’Auberge hotel & casino in Baton Rouge. Prêt à Porter designs is the creation of local New Orleans designer Carrie Licciardi who after receiving her degree in fashion design, and working for various fashion labels in L.A., decided to return home to New Orleans and launch her own fashion line. The collection is a cross breed of dainty southern charm meets contemporary design. From tuxedo jackets to a white linen dress, and no southern fashion show is complete without a purple and gold outfit. I really enjoyed the entire collection, and the fashion show was a great success for Carrie. I was very happy to see the lovely Leslie from Southern Flair Blog who was also in attendance. It was great to catch up and blog talk while we waited for the fashion show to begin. Overall it was such a fun night. I am glad that my friend Erica came along, this was our second fashion show that we attended this year. And my outfit is my take on the color block trend, that’s right like the song says “I did it my way”. I love everything about this outfit, not only was it super cute, it was super comfortable.
Until the next post, XO!
