The luncheon also featured a fashion show by Steve & Gretchen at Haberdasher & Haberdasher Ladies. Great stuff! They've obviously gotten in some new and different brands that are adventurous, young, and fun. Kind of pricey for a bargain hunter like me, but then the good stuff usually is.
So here are just a few of the fun looks I saw that day (besides on the actual models):
Janine wore a cool velvet jacket in earth tone paisley print & Judy had on a beautiful one of all-over passementarie in a beautiful charcoal/silver tone. Both with basic black, of course. "Chicos!" they both said. Nice to know Chico's is finally branching out into some fashion-forwardness after years of concentrating on those packable knits that inundated everyone's wardrobe. Not that there's anything wrong with that....
This is the aforementioned Phyllis Strother (see blog dated ), and her longtime friend Connie Bryant, both looking sharp in their pantsuits. Phyllis' was a tiny pinstripe, (sorry it doesn't show up in the pic), with a small ruffle at the neckline. Connie added a nice bright rose color to her basic black and looked fabulous. Both of these ladies were my co-workers at Nordstrom about a hundred years ago! We spent several minutes lamenting the fact that no one dresses up for anything anymore. Don't let that happen to you.
Whoa! One of the highlights of the luncheon was seeing John, the Asst. Golf Pro, dressed in white and waiting tables. I just had to get his picture. Actually a lot of the ladies were wishing John would serve them up....something. Anything. Not sure what. He just looked so dang cute.
One more great jacket: this is Linda in a beautiful brocade-with-lace number she found at Priscilla's. She looked so with it! S'all ahm sayin. I've actually never been in Priscilla's for the simple reason that I find her t.v. ads absolutely barfable and blort-worthy. Does that make me a bad person?
