The shop will be open 12-5pm until Saturday, 1/26/13.
Upon checking in, we were given a list of the participating designers with their twitter handles.
MOST HELPFUL! It was so dark in the room, I could hardly see a thing.
The list and their links: Wren Olima Gypsy Junkies Odylyne Rojas The Battalion Eco Couture Jenny Dayco Shallow Fashion Bryan Hearns Bijou Van Ness |
as you can see, I was attracted to texture + prints No surprise there, amiright?
from top right, clockwise:
Bryan Hearns' shaggy lurex clutches Battalion's super soft fake fur coats -- WANT the leopard one Rojas' real woven ikat sheath and great B+W ethnic print tops Wren's ikat print dress |
So, despite the cramped conditions, I pulled out my Moleskine and had at it:
These hats from Bijou Van Ness were so whimsical, I HAD to capture them (plus, they weren't moving around) |
Jasmine on left, adorable Marlita on right |

You would never know from this blog that I'm EXTREMELY shy, especially in crowded party situations.
It felt wonderful doing hand sketching -- the pen to paper, letting the ink flow -- I just don't get that with digital drawing.

What do I need to improve? Overcome my shyness and get the names of the people I sketch!
Too many "mystery girls" here!
By the time I started looking for the above two, they had vanished.
I'm linking up with Katy's Fashion Beauty Friend Friday.
This month's theme is New Year, New You.
I promised myself this year to attend more local LA fashion events and to live sketch --> done and done!
