Week 3 - New Activity


Fashion show time!

As of Saturday (January 30), the Bolins had never been to a fashion show. Not so now. Saturday evening we attended a local event called Fashion in Salvation - a production displaying local designers, all to benefit the homeless in Omaha. My brosef Shawn and our dear friend Sarah participated in the fashion palooza as well.

It was...fascinating. I wasn't sure what to expect, and maybe secretly hoped it would be like Project Runway. That may have been a stretch. It was, however, a high-energy, show-'em'-what-you're-made-of-Omaha-designers, palooza, which made for an enjoyable experience.

It was packed (standing room only), and there was an incredible buzz as people waited for the show to begin (side note - the show started an hour and a half late. Good thing we didn't get there on time!) Once the show finally started, the models show-cased some of Omaha's rising stars AND some of Omaha's most bizarre people. Check out the video clip for an entertaining glimpse into the world of wacky designers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IHcXO89shM&feature=youtu.be

Overall it was a fun night! Apparently there's an Omaha fashion week (who knew?!?), so maybe we'll check that out. As for fashion show fun, it was a good "adventure"!
