This year was the first year for team Anne Marie Beard of *annemarie*and Laisa Chavez of LaLa. Our looks were coordinated together down to the last detail. It was an honor to participate in this fundraiser for TCT,and a great way to express creativity and see what this amazing city of artists had to offer.

I have said it on here before, but I will say it again: I love living in Austin! You could even say that I adore it (Ha! See what I did there?). Everyone here is really friendly, and on Saturday I met so many nice people including Jennifer from TapeBombs and some sweet women who let me take their street style photos. This city always has so many fun, affordable events, and the people that live here are incredibly talented, creative, artistic, and eclectic. Nothing illustrates this more than Saturday’s Treasure City Thrift Recycled Fashion Show.

Thank you to Treasure City Thrift and iLoveMikeLitt for putting together an amazing fashion show. I made the trek all the way to E.12th and Harvey St. for the local awesomeness this past Saturday. I’m not really going to critique the fashion that was shown, because altogether it was just a fun show. All of the designers approached the task of recycling thrifted materials differently. Some chose to make political statements with their designs, while others chose to just make a statement…a statement that went kinda like “whoa! that’s crazy.” And then there were the designs that you could actually see yourself rockin out on the town.
