Street Style // Lady Leopard

you can't go wrong with a chic lbd, tights and black shoes
but throw in a leopard print jacket
and you've totally completed the look

(nothing like a little animal print post
just in time for halloween)

Street Style // Triple Threat

there's a lot to take in when 3 high style individuals are in the frame
but my eye immediately went to her shoes.
c'mon, are you even surprised?

Hemline

today, i'm pleased to welcome hemline, as a brand new sponsor of the concrete catwalk! we absolutely love the lines that they carry in their local boutique, and we're big fans of the gals that work there, too!

be sure to click over to their website or stop by their space on the plaza... they feature a mix of styles and price-points, so there is truly something for everyone. (see a few of my favorites here, here, and here.)

a huge thank you to hemline for helping to make our site possible!

***if you are interested in becoming a sponsor of the concrete catwalk, please email me for details - we offer very reasonable rates and would love to work with you!

Street Style // Fellow Photog

first thing i spotted about this outfit? the cool kicks.
second thing? he accessorized the entire look with his camera!
great minds think alike.
(also loving the leather jacket and trapper hat combo)

Street Style // Lacy Legs

lace is a big look for fall
and i love the way that these tights provide just enough
peekaboo for the legs

Street Style // Smiley

smiles or not, we love her look
earthy colors with just the right amount of drape
and a hint of sparkle on her ears to offset the lovely hardware on the belt

Street Style // Glowing

this hemline lass is glowing
possibly from all of the excitement of the event?
or maybe it's that fabulous one-shoulder dress.
(oh how we LOVE dresses with pockets AND flower appliques!)

Street Style // Sequin Chic

loving all of the glitz and glimmer of this ensemble
on the top half she's got the glam rocker look
and from the waist down she's keeping it tailored and classy
my favorite part: the sequin pattern also doubles as an animal print
rawr.

Street Style // Hissssss

i know i've already mentioned this, but
THERE WERE LIVE SNAKES IN THE SHOW!
this sassy lady tapped in to the snakeskin look in a less literal way
but she's still walking on the wild side and looks fab doing it
(just probably a bit safer and less slithery)

Street Style // Studded

this color looked absolutely grand on sweet jenna
and the lacy detail gave her top a lovely updated look
can you guess the part that really made my heart flutter?
oh yes, my dears, it was those studded shoes.

Street Style // Glam

this little gem had, by far, one of my most favorite get-ups of the evening
just the right amount of sparkle, cozy, curls and vavoom
(the vavoom would be those saucy shoes, if you couldn't tell)
on top of all that, she's as cute as a button!
yet another look that i plan on recreating in it's entirety for myself.

Eve Recap...

last night's fashion show was AH-mazing.

kudo's to all who were involved. every single outfit that came down the runway (all provided by hemline) was impeccably put together and i honestly would wear any of the looks in a heartbeat. i noticed as i was snapping photos during the show that my mouth was hanging open... thank god i had a camera in front of my face... i'm hoping nobody saw. :) the hemline head-honchos and the production management were so welcoming and genuine, and each one of the gals that work at the shop is more adorable than the next.

i can't wait to show you all the details - they really went all out with the theme! There were belly dancers before and after the show, authentic drumming music to set the mood, and the many of the models carried LIVE SNAKES down the runway! it was almost too much for me to handle, but i loved every minute of it.

thank you to all who let me shoot their fabulous style and to all who came and said hello. i was so encouraged by everyone's comments and it was very humbling to meet some of my readers in person!

i've got a busy weekend lined up, but hopefully will be able to get started on editing all that i shot, and i promise to at least have a few style shots up for next week.

Eve // A Forbidden Fashion Show

we are SO excited to be attending
eve: a forbidden fashion show
at 8 pm tomorrow night, at the municipal auditorium.
not only because we love hemline,
but also because we LOVE love the humane society of greater kansas city!
our precious sadie (see yesterday's post below)
was a shelter pup and our kitty was a stray,
so we are ALL about rescued animals.

no need to purchase tickets, but a donation is requested upon entry.

will we have the pleasure of seeing you there?
do come and say hello!

Guy Style // Mr. Mix and Match

mr. mix and match threw on
stripes, plaid, and a houndstooth driving cap
to create a look that is somehow
very seamlessly pulled together
(might have something to do with the precious puppy in pink)

then again, i might be a little biased
because this mr. is mine
and the puppy is ours

Street Style // Sweet as Sugar

fun floral patterns get me every time,
but when you add the something like a billowy sleeve?
i'm done for.
and let's just face it - every girl needs a perfect red shoe!
last but not least, i am SERiously needing
a buttery soft, grey handbag for fall.

Street Style // Tie Guy

not a huge fan of taking pictures at night
but i didn't want to pass on the chance to snap a shot of sweet jeff.
the sweatshirt-esque jacket over a tie is perfection
and he's got just the right combo of blacks and blues.
can't forget to mention that his kicks are from the one and only, habitat.

Street Style // Layers and Leather

last friday really felt like fall
and it was great to see people breaking out their
layering pieces for the new season
i'm particularly loving her stripey scarf
(i've got a serious thing for stripes)
and the oxford-tights-miniskirt combo.

Street Style // Jared

jared is the sweetie-pie husband of another
very fine fashionista that we know.
he always looks good and
friday night was no exception.

Street Style // The Northwest is Nice

i think... no wait, i definitely love portland
great city, great food, GREAT friends, and great style.
yep, it's definitely one of my new faves.
this outfit is a fave, too.
so much so that i re-created the entire look for myself.
(even down to cutting myself some bangs)
imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, no?
