Events Dazzling up denim at Jeans and Jewels benefit
Posted By Anita Overcash on Tue, Jun 22, 2010 at 10:07 AM
Isn’t one supposed to get a little stressed before a gala? “What to wear?” is a fitting question for some of us who typically experience pre-dressing chaos. After all, galas and dressing-up usually go together. Usually, but not always, as we learn from Jeans and Jewels, a benefit for 24 Hours of Booty (a 24-hour cycling event that raises awareness and funds to support the Lance Armstrong Foundation and local cancer organizations). The particularly laid-back dress code of this gala — happening on June 26 at the Carillon Building Uptown — entails a combo of both formal (as in jewelry) and casual (as in jeans or jean skirts, dresses, vests, etc.). Yeah, dressing for this gala is that easy — can you believe it? The shindig will feature a fashion show, appetizers and drinks, a silent auction and raffle. For more information, visit www.jeansandjewelscharlotte.com. Tickets are $45-$50. 7 p.m. Carillon Building, 227 W. Trade St.
