BLONDER AMBITIONS’ FASHION SESSION AT TONIC DAYCLUB

I love fashion shows. They’re essentially a grown woman’s version of playing dress-up. I had the opportunity to style & produce a fashion show (and I also got to do the makeup!) a couple of weeks ago. The event was held at Tonic in Santa Barbara. All bikinis were one-of-a-kind and custom designed by Ali Sea Bikinis. The clothing was furnished by Adktd Lifestyle. The hair was created by Salon Patine. The videography was done by Jason Gagne of Brooklyn West Films.It was such an incredible day. I wish I could relive it over and over again. Thanks to the phenomenal footage provided by Brooklyn West Films & the sensational photography of Christian Harris and my oh-so-talented mother, Valerie, I have the opportunity to revisit the day as much as I like. And so do you.
Please take a moment to look at the videos below. The first is coverage of the show by Brooklyn West Films and the second video (*scroll down below the first video and a few photos) is a quick (15 second!) photo recap of the day. If you want to take your time with the photos, then click through the gallery (at the bottom of this post).

LOOK OF THE WEEK – SHORT SUITING
I was meeting one of my favorite people {a friend of mine from my days in law school} for brunch and I needed to pull together an outfit that said, “Yeah, I went to law school…” but also said, “And… I decided not to practice law.” Enter the leopard print blazer and shorts instead of slacks. This look goes from day to night… and from memos to mimosas… with ease.
