Grand Rapids MI blogger meet-up, Friday!

9:25 AM

Friday night was the Grand Rapids blogger meet-up! Lauren, Cat and I packed up Lauren's car and headed out to GR for the Aqualush fashion show and to meet up with nine other bloggers!

The fashion show was nice, I really liked the hair and makeup. Some of the models looked like they did not want to be there at all, and some of the outfits were kinda meh, but I really liked the band that performed during the show; Alexis. The lead singer was my hair twin! I have not really come across a guy in person who donned the blunt bangs before, but it kind of just fit him.

The best part was just meeting all of the girls. There are more and more bloggers in Michigan, a lot of fashion bloggers to be exact and it was funny to chat about clothes and blogging with other girls, but we wound up just goofing around for the most part.

We took some outfit photos at the event, it was a little dark, but hey, we are fashion bloggers! Gotta document the style right? I did wear shorts under my dress because it looked a little short. I tried to break out of my habit of just wearing black tights too. These are from halloween and I never wound up wearing them, but hey I had no where else to wear them so why not?

I love these photos because they are almost the opposite of the fashion show after parties that you see in magazines. Everyone here is all smiles :)

After the show we headed out to the Bob (building of bars), in Grand Rapids. We munched on food, sipped drinks and Tieka handed out awesome gift bags. We then headed upstairs to dance for a bit, which was mostly us just jumping around and laughing but it was a lot of fun.

I have a few more photos to share with everyone that I will put up on the next post so stay tuned!

    Those tights really came in handy because they truly spice up the outfit, especially with those shoes. Too good. This sounds like it was tons of fun!

    HOW am I just now finding your blog? The fashion show sounds like it was fun; I've never been to one before, but I can bet that I'd have a hard time keeping quiet and controlling laughter with my friends. Gotta love those apathetic models, no?

    Pardon me while I creep now.
