I arrived in Kansas City with just enough time for Kat & I to grab a glass of champagne to kick off the evening with our fellow fashion & beauty bloggers. I loved getting together with a group of bloggers and not feeling ashamed when asking for a few quick outfit snapshots before the show started! Here are a few mini moments & my favorite pieces from Friday's show benefiting WaysideWaifs, sponsored by Kansas Clean Distilled Whiskey.
I was truly amazed by the amount of talent found at the Kansas City Red Carpet Runway Showcase, designers showed from all over the midwest and even coming in from Miami! Velvets, draping, trains, leather, bright & bold colors, patterns, & print were showcased. Just wait until you scroll to the end and we can discuss the fashiony-goodness that is Nina by Lisu Vega. I cannot stop obsessing. Stunning. Breathtaking. Jaw-dropping.

The Finale.
Every piece that walked the runway from Nina by Lisu Vega left me wanting more. I found her pieces struck something inside me the most {that's what I love about fashion & a great design, it just makes me all giddy inside}. I loved the eclectic headpieces, draping shape of each of the dresses, and the color, oh the color! The movement and flow of each of her pieces paired with the striking headpieces to complete the looks.
Stay tuned tomorrow for my coverage of Saturday night's Kansas City Fashion Week Runway Showcase.
