In early summer, I hatched a scheme with a fellow entrepreneur and good friend, Wendy of Evolution Consulting Group, to create an intimate style affair. That’s all I had…. With a little prodding, a few brainstorming sessions fueled by a little ‘creative juice’, we came up with the who, what, when, where and even the why.
The intimate style affair needed to focus on the ‘senses’ and fashion, of course. The event would be for my best clients and some prospectives as a “thank you” and a great opportunity to share the Blueprint for Style brand thus, the Scents & Styles of Fall 2013. It would be hosted at Saks Fifth Avenue Tysons Corner {a cornerstone of high-end fashion and style in the DC area}. It would be during the week given that professional women, generally speaking, like their weekends for errands, travel and socializing (and some relaxing if that can be squeezed in as well). It would be in mid-September amid some of the hoopla of the Big Four Fashion Weeks (New York, Paris, Milan and London).
Scents & Styles of Fall 2013 was limited to 10 ladies who could appreciate the change of season, and indulge in all of the small details and fun extras we added to make it such a special occasion ~ gold skeleton keys {#key2style}, gold and blue personalized portfolios, specially order pens, bites and bevvies including “blue”berry and gold swizzle sticks, and a customized scent presentation and fashion show that would share looks for work to weekend, date night, power meetings, weekends of hustle and bustle, and girls night out.
Pieces in place.
Let the festivities begin!
