The week wrapped up with the Austin Fashion Awards ceremony on Saturday at the ACL Moody Theatre at the W. We've attended a few events at the new studio in the first year of it being open (compared to never visiting the original studio on the UT campus) and this was definitely one of the coolest set-ups we've seen so far.

One of our favorite couple friends, Spencer and Julie were there. Julie is pretty much one of the coolest people I've met, and such a sweetheart, and just happens to be the Marketing Director for the 2nd Street District. She's all sorts of amazing and was asked to present one of the awards. She did great and looked fabulous!
Speaking of awards, the women who did my wedding day makeup, Rochelle Rae, won the award for Best Makeup Artist, yay Rochelle!
The awards ceremony was very loooooong, and went an hour over. There were runway shows, dancers, lots of awards, and then this happened, and it made the whole show and skipping dinner absolutely worth it. I have NEVER seen anything like this and I think I had chills the entire time.
More pictures from the after party, and our crazy evil eyes from the phone flash...
Okay, and now I feel like I must go shopping and get ready for the fun fall looks that we saw, and loose 50 pounds after seeing the stick thin models (absolutely kidding about that one, but seriously, some of them looked like they were going to break in half, geez!).
Oh, and one more thing...Payton's 2nd Street District logo on the big screen at the show:
Happy to live vicariously through you!! Thanks for sharing the highlights of yet another fabulously eventful week in Austin!
