Welcome to casual Friday where the sun is shining and the energy here is electrifying! Today’s look of the day consists of pieces from our new designer Rae Marie. This pleather vest and silk printed are a great way to indulge in a few of the fabulous trends for fall. Layer the vest, add tights, slip on some boots, and BANG you’re all set. Also, don’t forget this gorgeous necklace from So Simply Delicious for only $16.
UPDATE! 9 minutes after we put this look out in front of Fashion Denver, a woman drove by, fell in love with the skirt, made a U-turn, and bought it! We love when that happens!… Read more!
I’ve met with 3 designers that will be joining Fashion Denver in September and upon those meetings, bought up some new favorite accessories. Here is a sneak peak from designers Leigh Benner, designer of Barberry & Lace, Michelle Marie Designs, and Jennifer Lane Designs.
From the bottom up:
Earrings: I fell in love with the color and simplicity of these Michelle Marie Designs earrings and have been wearing them ever since I got them. They add just the perfect pop of color.
Necklace: As some of you may know, I could be on my roller-skates 24 /7 and this Barberry & Lace necklace is just the perfect little charm to represent my passion for rolling.
Headband / necklace: There are days that I love the earthy feel of nature and this headband is the perfect way to come stay rooted to our earth in a peaceful way. If you don’t want to wrap it around your head, you can wear it as a necklace. I love pieces with options!
We are really looking forward to the new designers joining us! Come and meet them at our First Friday event on September 2nd from 6pm-9pm!… Read more!

Every family has one: the sibling who is always just a little bit behind the curve when it comes to getting his life together. For sisters Liz (Emily Mortimer), Miranda (Elizabeth Banks) and Natalie (Zooey Deschanel), that person is their perennially upbeat brother Ned (Paul Rudd), an erstwhile organic farmer whose willingness to rely on the honesty of mankind is a less-than-optimum strategy for a tidy, trouble-free existence. Ned may be utterly lacking in common sense, but he is their brother and so, after his girlfriend dumps him and boots him off the farm, his sisters once again come to his rescue. As Liz, Miranda and … Read more!
Art and fashion collide in Studio Yoshida’s latest collection of upcycled blazers. Bringing unusual materials together and combining them with the every day, each blazer pops with designer Kotomi Yoshida’s Japanese culture. The blazers have been cut up and reconstructed with many of them having tuxedo tails. Stop by Fashion Denver to see the rest of the collection. You’ll be happily surprised!… Read more!
This little old man who is volunteering across the street at PBS strolled into Fashion Denver and within the hour that he was here, he shared the story of his wife who passed away after 54 years of marriage. I went to go talk to him when he was looking at our designer Simply Delicious’s cupcake and pie necklaces.
“It’s been 377 Sundays since my wife passed away and every year I buy her a birthday present. She would like this. She loved to bake. I would buy her the donut, the pie, and the cupcake,” he said as he looked over each necklace very carefully.
“I already bought her gift for next year. It’s a golden carriage with an egg inside. It’s beautiful.”
He told me how now he bakes. He loves to bake. He made a pie with amaretto in it and just made stuffed peppers. He told me about how he met his wife at a job interview and saw that she didn’t have a ring on so he asked her out on a date. They went on their first date during the holidays and by the following Thanksgiving, they were married. He told me about their … Read more!
