Events Tickets on sale for 4th Annual 25 Most Stylish Event
Posted By Kimberly Lawson on Thu, Apr 5, 2012 at 11:51 AM
Charlotte Style Magazine asks a question that I'd find hard to answer myself: Who are the 25 most stylish people in Charlotte?
This year, the event unveiling the full list will be held, most fittingly, at Butter on April 14 at 8 p.m. Should you choose to accept this mission - err, event invite - you'll arrive to a red carpet entry with photographers and videographers. Once inside, you'll stroll through the fashion presentation courtesy of Saks Fifth Avenue. And if you're without VIP access, simply drink in the luxuriousness of Butter's fancy decor until the list of people whom Charlotte Style Mag have deemed worthy to be called "most stylish" is announced. If you are fortunate to be a part of the "VIP experience," which they're calling the "coveted STYLE Suite," you'll partake in a gifting and complimentary cuisine sampling experience, presented by Osso Restaurant and Lounge. (VIP tickets are $75, but Charlotte STYLE readers can purchase tickets for $50 using code IHEARTSTYLE until April 10.)
From the dark corners of the club or VIP lounge, you can decide for yourselves if the winners truly deserved that honor. A press release lets the cat out of the bag on a few honorees: Carolina Panther Quarterback Cam Newton; Design Guru and Contributor to the Nate Berkus Show Rashon Carraway; Fortune Magazine's Next-Gen Female Entrepreneuer Krystal Harrell; Philanthropist and President of the Junior League of Charlotte Katie Zeok and more.
This event benefits the Ronald McDonald House of Charlotte.
To purchase tickets, visit http://charlottes25ms.eventbrite.com. The event takes place April 14 at 8 p.m. at Butter, 817 Hamilton St.

Videos All About Style: An interview with Tyrese
Posted By T. Strong on Mon, Apr 2, 2012 at 4:28 PM
When I found out I had been granted a sit-down interview with Tyrese when he was in Charlotte a week ago, I would be lying if I said I wasn't excited. In fact, while my hubby and I sat there enjoying his concert at Ovens Auditorium, I started to get a bit nervous about our chat, which is completely unlike me. But his easygoing and actually quite peaceful spirit made him very easy to interview. We talked about everything from his current album, Open Invitation to his new book, How To Get Out Of Your Own Way. He also made what was to me a very humble comment about his start in the modeling industry.
As one of the hottest male models in the industry in the '90s, he did campaigns with Tommy Hilfiger and Guess? while simultaneously working on his music. Then exploding on the silver screen as the always lovable Jody in the movie Baby Boy, starring in Too Fast Too Furious and the Transformers trilogies, Tyrese continues to make his presence in the entertainment industry known.
Check out my my interview with Tyrese for the newest episode of All About Style.
T. Strong is a TV personality, personal stylist and fashion journalist who contributes commentary on Creative Loafingâ â"¢s Klepto blog in addition to writing for several other national media organizations. To learn more visit www.StyleMayvin.com or follow â therealtstrongâ  on Twitter.
