Tonight, that happening EpiCentre nightspot Suite, along with The E Modeling Agency, is hosting The Models Mingle Part 2, a party for the fashionable and the fashion-minded. The fashion show will feature the new BeBe line from Kim and Khloe Kardashian. Here are some photos I snagged from StarPulse.com to give you an idea of what the Kardashian line is all about (Did you guess sexy pieces that accentuate the curves? You are correct my friend!).
Doors open at 8:30 and tickets are limited. Tickets are $10 and can be purchased from The E Agency at 135 W. Morehead St.
Today through Sunday, take half off the dot sale. You would have paid $10, $20, $30, etc. Now slash that price in half. Sale applies to shoes, handbangs, clothing and accessories.

I like when local stores pimp out their local designers, and Bella Ropa is doing just that with Hems & Hers. The Birkdale Village boutique is hosting a trunk show with local designer Caroline Black and her line Hems & Hers. The event goes down Friday, from 1 p.m.-4 p.m. Check out this blurb I stole from Bella Ropa’s blog, straight from the mouth of the store owner:
This is where Caroline Black pops into the picture. She is the bubbly personality behind Hems and Hers. You might have seen her pieces featured in Charlotte Magazine but I am happy to say we are the first store to carry the line! Hems and Hers is a line of skirts and dresses in bright, vibrant patterns. All of the pieces are hand sewn with great care and attention to detail. My favorite part is that each piece retails for under $100! So you can be stylish and not break the bank.
And check out this piece I found on the Hems & Hers site, rumored to make an appearance at the trunk show.
Here’s some info from a press release I found buried in my inbox this morning. Sorry for the lateness!

On Saturday, March 6, fashion designer Lore Emelio will premiere her spring collection featuring women’s apparel, women’s hats and men’s ties and bow ties at her “Garden Party” fashion show. Bow ties? You gotta love it. Emelio has been all over the world, working for several highly esteemed fashion houses including Ralph Lauren and Best & Co and where does she say her inspiration comes from in planning this event? From a party she attended in Statesville. Wow.
From the Facebook invite:
Garden Party marks the official launch of the luxury line, “Lore Emelio”, which is based on tenants of collaborative interplay as a platform for engaging Charlotte’s dynamic community. Ms. Emelio is committed to cultivating a center for innovative expression. The March event will embody the concept for spring, Garden Party, inviting guests to experience an atmosphere of ethereal majesty and unorthodox whimsy.
