Asia met French Couture on the runway for a night of pure luxury and elegance. Barrera International took over the Space Gallery on September 5th, showcasing its 2014 Autumn/Winter collection. I sipped cocktails with some of Denver’s elite designers, magazine owners, boutiques, stylists, fashion bloggers and media personnel in an intimate gathering prior to the runway presentation.
The Barrera International 2014 Autumn/Winter collection included six major elements: satin, silk, chiffon, wool, cashmere and seasonal blends. The runway show featured unique fabrics with just a hint of sparkle, and brought a contrast of color against the gallery’s white backdrop. The intimate runway presentation allowed for close-up views of the 40 looks, illuminating how much detail went into each individual piece. I was dying over the jewel-toned embellishments in the couture line, absolute perfection. Erroll Perkins and his team of make-up artists partnered up with Ted Medina and his team of hairstylists to create a bold, yet graceful look to compliment each design. A pop-up shop followed the runway show where clients and guests were able to place customizable orders.

What’s more adorable than a Children’s Fashion Show? Obviously a Children’s Fashion Show that showcases Denver’s top designers and local fashions! The children, ages 5-14, from Lovely Footprints very own ORCHID program made their way out to the Children’s Museum of Denver on Saturday, August 31st, to strut their stuff for the 2nd Annual 2013 Back to School Fashion Extravaganza.
I was lucky enough to sit with one of the designers, Francis Roces of Kimono Dragons, and was very impressed by his Asian inspired children’s line coming down the runway, as well as the other designs being flaunted by the tiny models. Pinks and greens seem to be all the rage for back to school style, as well as casual blazers and cardigans for both boys and girls.
The event was hosted by Ya Girl Cedes from Radio Station KS-107.5 and had intermissions that incorporated performances by children in the ORCHID program. It was a night full of fashion, dancing and fun for the whole family; what could be better than that?

One of our favorite places to shop for groceries and other fine eats is right up the street from our headquarters at Tony’s Market ! Last night while making a quick pit stop to grab some eggs, the manager on duty was decked out in this stylish outfit. He found the long jacket at a thrift store for $4.00. We love to see people who have fun in their daily jobs! Thank you for bringing a smile to our face with your unique style!… Read more!
