The Tory Burch Fashion Event

Hey guys, so last Wednesday I got to do something really special with my friend Chloe and my mom, it was a once in a life time opportunity. So a few weeks ago my mom got an e-mail inviting her to Tory Burch's Fashion show event at the Field Museum. Of course she asked my if  was interested and naturally my answer was yes. I invited my friend Chloe who also knew about the event. When we got to the Field Museum, we entered on the bottom floor to a cocktail party with a DJ. There were Tory Burch models walking around, showing of last years resort collection. It was so fun to people watch and just have fun. After an hour, we all walked up stairs to the main hall of the Field Museum where the fashion show was to take place. We got really lucky and got seats right at the entrance to the catwalk. On our seats were bags full of Macaroons (Tory Burch's favorite food), Bumble and Bumble hair products, a $50 Tory Burch gift card, a Tory Burch tote bag and a free haircut at Solo Salon. And on top of all that, I got to sit next to the executive regional manager for Tory Burch! I told her about my experience with fashion camp in New York and she gave me her card telling me to call her when I want a job. Now on the the actual show!
The Macaroons!







 The final three dresses we absolutely STUNNING! Tory Burch really went out of her usual preppy styles and made this entire collection unique to anything she has ever done before and it really shows through these three dresses. One of my favorite looks is the cream fringe jacket with the sequined shirt under neither because it too is not what I expected and more then pleasantly surprised me.  Her Deauville inspired Spring 2012 collection runway show is only Tory Burch's second runway show ever!
