smashin’ fashion

August 27th, 2008

last thursday, danielle, who miraculously gets invited to every event in the dallas area, brought me along to enjoy two wonderful fashion shows! she is getting married next june, so first up was the vera wang bridal show at highland park village.  there were beautiful flower arrangements and delicious champagne cocktails, not to mention stunning vera wang gowns. i think this was my favorite:

we then cruised over to the crescent to watch the stanley korshak fall/winter preview runway show.  it was fantastic! i loved both the men’s and women’s collection, but my favorite was this little black dress that was to die for: it was a mini-dress with spaghetti straps and beads/sparkley goodness all over.  i cannot find it anywhere online or else i’d post it. it was pretty dark and hard to get a good photo, but i will share this fabulous photo of danielle and lauren enjoying the korshak signature blue cocktails.  i don’t know what they were, but they were delicious!
