Sinfully Fashionable With #FMDS

I'm not sure what I like most about fashion shows, the fashion or people watching? More or less I'm watching the people, watching people.

Does that make any sense?

I love it. Fashion shows give me such a rush!

 And fortunately for me I scored a front row seat (prime seating real-estate) and a swag bag! Which, thanks to our sponsors On A Whim, Chantilly Lace, Polished by Claire V., Mad Dog, etc. were filled with coupons and hygiene products! Thanks guys! :) And the pink tissue was a nice touch!




Ok, as a journalist, I'm not supposed to show partiality, but Kelsy Dominck's designs have inspired me ever since I modeled for her over 3 years ago.



This year, she won Best Senior Designer! And well deserved! This one's my favorite (because it's black, OBVS!):



And my favorite was hanging out with the models backstage beforehand! Especially my pageant sister Midori! (The currently reigning Miss Theta Iota also known as Miss Black and Gold!) And my favorite  Priya!



My two seat neighbors were the Roanoke Times Street Style Blogger David Verde and my plus one Souleymayne who just happens to be starting a fashion line himself! OESU!

PAUSE! Can I pay homage to the show's title: Sinful: A Fashionable Affair? All the designs were/are sinfully delightful! I was pleasantly surprised at every turn! And without further ado, here's what you came for, THE CLOTHES! ENJOY!
