The benefit is from 5-8pm, with 100% of the proceeds benefiting Fertile Hope of Austin. The Executive Director of Fertile Hope in NYC, Lindsay Nohr Beck, will be there too. The event…

Breakfast at Embellish
I don’t know who this Michele Whoever designer is, nor what she’s selling at this trunk show (er, um, jewelry). All I know is that I popped in to Embellish once just to see what it was all about, and I fell in love. I haven’t even had my nails done there and I still…

If You’re Headed to Dallas this Weekend …
Sprinkles Cupcakes, my obsession, is offering a Red River Rivalry treat: Proceeds benefit Children’s Medical Center Dallas and Children’s Medical Research Center at the OU Health Sciences Center, respectively. … one more good reason to make the Red River Rivalry trek …
Tidbits or Tribeza? Tough Thursday!
I LOVE Austin Tidbits parties. They’re rare (quarterly?), obviously causing them to be more exciting than Tribeza parties, and they usually have fab gift bags and super-fashiony people, making them way more exciting. Not that Tribeza parties don’t have fashiony people–and I will say they draw a fair man-crowd, whereas Tidbits men are randoms off…

SkirtChaser!
I try not to write about things in advance, because when I read about cool things too far in advance, I say, “oh, that’s cool, I want to do it” and promptly forget about it. BUT there are some exceptions: when you have to buy a ticket/race entry, or when I’m super-excited about something, or…
Free Beer Fests Saturday + a workout
TONS of stuff going on this Saturday. So much that I can’t even remember what to blog about. Well, to be honest, there are the only a few things I might be doing anyway (and don’t be fooled, I won’t be doing ALL of these): Saturday morning: Try Crossfit Women’s Workout Crossfit is all the…
Watch the VP Debates!
I can’t remember the last time I heard so much buzz about Vice Presidential candidates debating … or really about them debating at all … most people haven’t cared that much. But this is a different year and a different type of election, so here are two places to watch the debates (if you’re not…
