People ask me all the time, "So what is a Trunk Show exactly?" I was surprised to find that there are lots of folks who really don't know. Unlike a traditional fashion show where attendees are invited to preview the designs on the runway, at a trunk show you can actually make purchases. In fact, that's the whole point. In most cases you still are able to preview the merchandise before it's made available to the public, so it's pretty exclusive.

Anyway, if you love jewelry, you're gonna love this. Here's your chance to attend the Sylvia Benson trunk show. If you've been to Fresh Boutique lately, you know that they recently started carrying Sylvia Benson designs. Her pieces are intricate and beautiful, and she's a North Carolina native. I have simply fallen in love with these "Amour" earrings, and I sincerely hope they are available when I arrive. The designer creates everything from earrings to necklaces, bracelets, charms, rings and even hair accessories.

Tomorrow, July 9, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Fresh Boutique will host the Sylvia Benson trunk show, and believe me, this is an all-day event that you don't want to miss. Purchasing a piece that you simply can't live without from the collection will also give you the added bonus of making clothing purchases from Fresh Boutique at 25 percent off. AND ... it just keeps getting better. Come by during lunch time (11 a.m.-2 p.m.) and grab a couple of blackened fish tacos and more from the Roaming Fork Gourmet food truck. Then, the day wouldn't be complete without a little something sweet. Fresh Boutique is also hosting the Southern Cake Queen and if you haven't experienced the sweet confections that emerge from that little pink food truck ... make plans to be there tomorrow. Fashion, food and sweets ... what could be better?
