Easy Way to Sharpen Your Window Shopping Technique
The recession has many of us buying a lot less lately, but that doesn’t mean we can’t look at all of the pretty things…How else are we going to prepare ourselves to shop once the economy starts to turns upward again?
I recommend sharpening that shopping eye by dropping in on some of the fabulous fashion week events set to begin this Thursday in downtown Raleigh!
Today, I met with Tracie Fitch at TheShoppingMemo.com this morning. While we both agree that saving money is “chic” these days, we wouldn’t think to miss the chance to check out the latest in Raleigh fashion while supporting local designers and beauty industry talent during Raleigh Fashion Week.
We’ve decided to divide our time shooting video, taking pictures and providing up to the minute twitter and blog updates on Raleigh’s fashion scene.
If you’re anything like us then you won’t want to miss the events which begin at The Plaza Condominiums at 2 p.m. this Thursday, May 14.
Runway shows start each night at 9:00pm, but there are plenty of activities taking place even before the models hit the catwalk. You can:
Visit the Raleigh Fashion Week Expo, where fashion-forward businesses will share their health, fashion and beauty talents…
Bid on silent auction items to benefit Interact and Susan G. Komen for the Cure NC Triangle Affiliate…
Stop by The Plaza Condominiums booth to register to win a night at the most fashionable place to live in the Triangle!
Think of it this way…if you want to stay recessionista chic there are a ton of great reasons to pop into Raleigh Fashion Week to meet local designers and beauty professionals who can hook you up on a budget.
It’s more convenient since you don’t have to travel very far.
It cost less to you (for gas in your car) and the environment (pollution in the environment from all that shipping).
And buying local allows you to support local folks, which helps build up your community stay connected.
