Eye on Fashion: The Fashion Movement

As a fashion blogger, I am often asked about the fashion scene in Tampa.  Many who are on the outer edges feel that Tampa has no real presence in the fashion world.  I would beg to differ.  Tampa has a lot to offer when it comes down to bold, unique & fun fashion

Lacey Smith, the founder of The Fashion Movement has been supporting the local fashion scene for several years in this market.  He presents Haute Accessories week, an event that supports many local artists in a genre that many seem to forget can help make or break an outfit.  The focus this time is on Fashion Stylists.  The Eye on Fashion contest will feature four participants from across the country, this years contestants come from Virginia, Florida & New York.  They will share five looks & the winner will receive a cash prize and a full spread in Revized Magazine.  

If you want to get a look at what the Tampa area has to offer in the way of new & cutting edge fashion, be sure to attend this event.

When:     Saturday, May 3, 2014
Where:    The Vault
Time:        7pm to 11pm

Tickets are available at The Fashion Movement website.  I don't know about you, but I can't wait to see what the stylists will come up with.
