Last Friday Night!!

Fashion Group International's "Night of Stars" Award Gala was the place to be November 18th!

Held at the Dallas Market Centers Grand Pavilion, it was a sold out event where all of Dallas' most fashionable were in attendance!
Teri Provencal and Maxine Trowbridge were the co-chairs and boy did they do a wonderful job!!

Honoring Shelly Musselman, a co-founder of boutique store 'Forty Five Ten', the night was spectacular with a fashion show produced by none other than Jan Strimple and featuring clothes from Shelly's personal collection.

I was loving the Nha Khanh blue dress I had on! It was on loan from my wonderful friend Mina Chang! I'm so lucky we wear the same size, as I was scrambling to find something to wear!! Of course she was even more stunning in her custom made red Nha Khanh gown and gold crystal strass Louboutins, but who would expect less from one of the fashion police of the night!
And that slit sure did turn heads!!

Big Rich Texas was there filming an episode for Season 2 and i'm sure you'll be seeing me when it comes out!!

The Fashion Police also included: Jarrod Fresquez, Cathy Terrell Williamson, Pamela Martin, Suraj Jagannathan, Susan Posnick, Scott Kehn, and Sarah Blacketer

The Lifetime Acheivement in Fashion went to Shelly Musselman.
Lifestyle Acheivement Award went to Alberto Lombardi.
Rising Star in Beauty went to D'Andra Simmons.
Rising Star in Fashion Design went to Shirin Askari.
And so many other awards!

Here's a few pics I snapped as Shelly's clothes went down the runway!!
















It was a wonderful event and I can't wait till next year!!

Last weeks, Places to be!

I've been up and down and so busy!
Last week was jam packed with events and places to be. Here's a recap of what you might have missed last Thursday!!

Thursday had me running all over town!
The first stop was David Yurman at NorthPark Mall for an appearance by the man himself David Yurman!
Hosted by the Elan Circle of the Dallas Symphony Orchestra we honored and recognized Mr. Yurman for his contributions to the DSO.



Then on down to West Village where DEMERARA had their Grand Opening party with a fashion presentation, Espada tequila, hors d'oeuvres, and bling everywhere!! And this has to be one of the most adorable kids I have ever come across!!



And then to the Design District where Amanda Dunbar had a wonderful party with delicious cheeses, drinks, and art of course!! Her crystal covered instruments were my favorites! There was even a chello covered to look like Van Goghs "Starry Night".








After which we headed to the Foundation Room to celebrate the birthday of Jarrod Fresquez in style!
The place was packed with friends and family there to honor him, and was wonderfully done thanks to his girlfriend Nicole!

Tetia Stroud, LeeAnne Locken, Cynthia Smoot, and Jarrod Fresquez

Sierra Loren, Shannon Brower, Eric Oliver, and Nancy Lam

I did have another comedy event to go to, but by that time I was so tired it was not happening!
But I will give a shout out to comedian FLO! He performed at Service Bar off of Greenville, and I heard he was pretty good!
