Normally on a Monday I share with you my fun and exciting weekend. 90% of my weekend this week involved me laying on the couch and resting up to feel better. And it worked. By Sunday I was feeling so much more like myself. So when I got the opportunity to attend Omaha Fashion Week I jumped at the chance to put on some real clothes, do my makeup, and get out of the house for a fun event. Today’s post is Weekend Snapshots of my Sunday. š Don’t forget to link up to your snapshots at the bottom of thisĀ post!

My goal when doing my makeup was to make it look like I had not been coughing and sneezing for two weeks straight. I think I did a pretty good job!
My dress isĀ from Nordstrom Rack and while I normally wear it to work with pumps IĀ dressed it up for the night with some fun heels.
These bad boys are vintage Prada that I found on Instagram. (Bows are clip ons!) There’s not another exact match available online but this one is close. I am in love with how fun and different they are. And the chunky heel is a blessing after a long night of being up on your feet.
Josh and I got to Omaha Fashion Week early to attend the pre-party. I’m still on antibiotics so he was a good sport and drank for me. š
I was in love with these floral arrangementsĀ I spotted all over the venue.
Waiting for the show to start shoe shot.
The runway was beautiful. Sunday night was the Beauty Show, where local salons come together to compete in crafting head-to-to looks around a theme they learn just 48 hours prior.
My beautiful friend Chinh was the emcee. The theme for the event was colors. I loved seeing what all the salons came up with. I snapped a lot of looks. Here are my favorites from the night:
Her face!
Josh andĀ I go toĀ Garbo’s. It was really cool to see the looks they created.
This is a blurry shot but this was my favorite hair of the night. Braids on braids on braids.
It was such a fun date night and such an incredible event. Omaha Fashion Week is the fifth largest fashion week in the nation!Ā It’s truly a top-notch event. Now I can’t wait for the next one in September!
Questions of the Day: Have you been to a fashion show? Does your area host a fashion week? What was your favorite look from the ones I shared?
Have a lovely week ahead!
I have never been to a fashion show! Looks like a lot of fun. The blue dress is really pretty on you! Thanks for hosting the link up and have a great week!
First time linking up! Looks like you had a fun weekend. We had Charleston Fashion Week here too. It’s a great event!
This post was sooo cool, I love it! I’ve never been to a fashion show, but they host quite a few in my city, San Juan (Puerto Rico). One of the biggest fashion shows in the country is San Juan Moda.
That color was amazing on you! Loved this post!
You look gorgeous! Glad to hear you’re feeling better. Those shoes are too cute!
Like I think Pittsburgh has a fashion week, but I’ve never been, mostly because I can barely figure out if black & brown can go together sometimes, always or never. So I don’t need to confuse myself with extra options for the advanced fashion folks.
Those vintage heels are super cute, though I look like a T-Rex in any type of heel I try to walk in. Haha
Thanks for hosting!
What a fun night out! I’m so glad you’re feeling better. Being sick is bad enough during the work week, but it’s the worst when it interferes with your weekend!
Fashion week is so fun- Omaha looks like a success! š Glad you had a great time, lady!
I’m glad to hear you’re feeling better, and it looks like you and yours had a great time.
My city has a fashion week; I’ve never been. I wouldn’t turn down an invite to go someday.
This does look priinsomg. I’ll keep coming back for more.
