The Fabric Of Our Lives

Here's a recap of Cotton's 24 Hour Runway Show (1440 cotton looks) and some other pics during my Miami stay!  I still have one more outfit post from South Beach that I will post next week. This is going to be a long post, hope you enjoy these pics!

The setup before the show started!

Inside the VIP with one of my favorite bloggers, Sincerely Jules.  Meeting her and getting to talk with her all weekend was definitely another highlight for me!

With 2 of my other style setters, Sazan & Hallie.

With Miami fashion blogger Dianna, she was one of the contestants in the contest. She's a sweetie!

Got to meet Guiliana! 

With Erica from People Style Watch. 

The finale! After 24 hours of 1440 Cotton looks, the show came to an amazing end! We all celebrated and went out to a big group dinner on Ocean Dr. after the show was over.  Other celebrities like Michael Yo and Camilla Belle were there as well but I didn't get any pictures of them.  This was seriously an incredible experience and I wish that it didn't go by so quickly.  I tried to capture as much of it as I could on camera.  I have so many more pics but I just could not post them all.  I hope this was a good representation of my trip!  And as I mentioned, I have one more outfit shoot that I did which I will post up next week and then I will get back into my normal blogging routine.  Thank you again so much to everyone who helped me get to Miami!

Bright Lights & The Big City

We took these photos the first night of the Cotton Show when we were leaving.  It was late but we got a couple of good ones in! I'm not usually a fan of night time shoots, but Grant makes me change my mind about them and there's nothing like Miami nights!  I love all of the blurred lights in the background.  There will be more pics in this outfit when I put up my Cotton Show Wrap UP/Miami Diary post, but I hope you enjoy these for now!

I was seriously stressing about what I wanted to wear to the show.  We were in the VIP room which was on the side of the stage, so there was complimentary drinks and food the whole time and it gave us all the opportunity to chat with other people in the industry.  Everything that I have on has some percentage of cotton (minus the shoes) and it's all from Forever21!  They were one of the brands that walked the runway. I wanted something simple and chic with a girly twist and this is what I came up with. I didn't want to overdo it. I love white on white and the skirt is super cute with it's details. I also like the little white stones on the top.  I have the same one in black. Originally I was not going to wear the blazer, but I felt like it dressed it up a bit more and made it a little classier.

This outfit really reminds me of spring with the light colors.  I found these shoes a few days before I left and they went perfect with the skirt. I have to admit that after an hour my feet were killing me! I added a coral/pink lip to complete the look with gold accessories.
I'll be sharing pics from the show soon. I miss Miami especially since it's supposed to snow today!
