Ladies in Red. Delicious, yummy ruby red.

The new Daisy is here and it has us seeing red...ruby red!

Have you tried the new sweetheart style yet?

If you keep an eye on fashion trends, you know that red is all the rage this fall...from jackets and purses to shoes and boots, the trend is hot, hot, hot. Even the best dressed celebs at the Emmy Awards recently draped themselves in the color.

It only makes sense that a cute red Daisy strap should peek out!

Get a little oomph with the push up style

We have all five Daisy styles in stock: plunge, sweetheart, non-contour, strapless and push up - don't forget your matching panty...and of course there's a coordinating Hanky Panky, too.

The great thing about red is it looks good on every skin tone - really! And it just feels sexy. Red is hot. Even if you're wearing a boring suit, if you know that underneath it all you're draped in red?  Instant attitude, SOL Sistas. You'll be queen of that staff meeting. 

I love red because it brightens up winter, too. With snow just around the corner, I'm looking forward to cozy sweaters and hot chocolate, with the warmth of my ruby red Daisy.

They're online and in the store - if you know your size, we'll wrap it up before you get here!


Love, 
Cindy

FNO in NYC

Lindsey and I are in NY to experience NYC's Fashion's Night Out.  An international shopping event started by Anna Wintour and American Vogue in 2009 to help bring awareness to the fashion industry, it is in its 3rd year with now over 250 cities participating in the US.  We traveled with Cherry Creek North BID ladies Kristi and Kristin who were hatching up plans for a Cherry Creek North FNO extravaganza in 2012.  Lindsey and I are here to be inspired and get our creative juices flowing to see what fun things we can dream up for a SOL FNO event for next year.

What a night! Lindsey, Kristi, Kristen and I hit the pavement in Soho right at 6pm with the goal of seeing as many shops and events as possible.

There were over 900 participating Fashion's Night Out locations all over Manhattan with over 200 right in Soho. That is where we concentrated our efforts and we were not disappointed!

We walked right into a group of ladies dressed up with shoes on their heads...yes, those are shoes on their heads

Music was key:  most shops had DJs spinning some tunes

Rockin' DJ at Betsy Johnson

There was even Karaoke - "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" was a theme for the night!

Live models graced windows all over town

You could get your hair and make-up done...

 Or how about being the model for a t-shirt cutting?

People could enjoy Net-A-Porter's Virtual Window Display and when they scanned an item with a phone or ipad, they had a chance to win it...

One of our favorites was the "Flipping Fun" flip book - dance for 7 seconds in front of the camera voila - a flip book with all your moves was in your hands 10 minutes later!

 

And it wouldn't be NY without a few celebrity sightings....

And of course great people watching and street fashion!

Thanks Fashion's Night Out for a great time! We are looking forward to bringing it back to Cherry Creek North next year!

We hope you enjoyed reading!

Fashion's Night Out - We Want In!

Have you heard of FNO? It started off as an after-hours shopping event to kick off New York's Fashion Week. Now, just three years after its inception, 250 American cities participate along with cities around the globe from Manhattan to Milan...Atlanta to Australia.

Guess who wants to bring it to Cherry Creek North next year? 
(Hint: Look to your right.)

This year, it's on September 8th and our very own Marketing divas Janelle and Lindsey are headed to the Big Apple with some of our Cherry Creek North neighbors to check it out and so we can partake with our own fabulous event for FNO in 2012.

Gives me goosebumps.

Also? I'm kinda jealous I'm not going with them. So, I've asked them to blog from FNO while they're there so we can all go along. Look for their full report next Thursday the 8th.

Can't wait!

xoxo,
Cindy
