So ‘COCO’

Gallery

Recently I attended a beauty event at Chanel Beauty!

We nibbled on macarons and sipped champagne.

We tested several fragrances.

And the skincare!

How colorful are these lip products? So many colors.

They also have fun accessories.

Fun and funky sunglasses and frames.

They also have small leather goods.

How lux are these makeup bags??

We went home with some Chanel goodies.

I was so excited to open my gifts!

Thank you Chanel for a wonderful evening!

This week the world was watching the annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.

But last month, Charlotte had their own Angels walking the runway.

Charlotte Seen featured Charlotte Angel Wings Decor during Charlotte Fashion Week.

The Angel behind the designs Olga, is originally from Ukraine. She moved to the U.S. in 2016.

She used to run a modeling school for kids and teenagers. 

“Ever since I was little, I dreamed of becoming a model.” she told me.

“I used to watch Victoria’s Secret shows and play with dolls, pretending to be in a modeling agency.”

“Fashion has always been a big part of my life. My mom enrolled me in a modeling school, which I graduated from, and soon after I started shooting for local ads in Ukraine.”

During the pandemic she started making Angel Wings just for fun.

Producer Rita Miles later put her designs on the runway.

I’d like to think my guardian angels look this elegant.

Reformation

South Park Mall recently welcomed sustainable fashion brand Reformation.

Reformation was created in 2009 by retailoring vintage clothing in the back of their first store in Los Angeles and quickly expanded into making their own clothing with a mission of bringing sustainable fashion to everyone.

Beautiful, muted shades of fall lined each wall.

Lots of jewel tones, browns, checks and polka dots.

Let’s not forget the dreamy accessories.

Choose your items from the screen and they will bring them to your climate controlled fitting room for you!

Stop in and start putting together your fall capsule wardrobe and know you’re doing good things for your closet and your environment!

Designer April Via brought fantasy to life last week on the runway at mCharlotte Seen Fashion Week.

From enchanted huntress…

To Gossamer pink clouds.

Her use of texture created a diverse collection.

Sheerness of fabrics mixed with satin, leather and yes, feathers.

Tassels add and an edginess to a Pretty In Pink 80s era prom dress.

This look was my favorite! Talk about textures!

You can see the designers creative range in this piece.

We’ve got sequins, leather, lace and fur!

Add all these components and some french script and it makes for one heck of an outfit.

Thank you Charlotte Seen for bringing such talent to the runway.

Thank you Vixxen for proving formidable females can be fashionable.

Special thank you to Craig Muzse for the incredible photos.
