Celebrate with Skirt on Friday
December 1, 2011
Skirt magazine will host a Fashion Challenge Gallery Hop & Shop 6 to 9 p.m. Friday at Fayette Mall featuring shopping specials at mall stores, Skirt swag bags, refreshments, and styles from the magazine’s Fashion Challenge Contest.
Starting last April, Skirt, which is published partly by the Herald-Leader, asked readers to create clothes and accessories from the pages of Skirt! and the Herald-Leader.
Friday, you’ll see the amazing entries: hats, jewelry, swimsuits, dresses and, of course, skirts, modeled by dancers of the Kentucky Ballet Theatre. A grand prize winner will be announced, and a portion of the contest’s entry fees will be presented to the Ball-Quantrell Jones Recovery Center for Women.

While I grew up in small-town Kentucky I’ve always been fascinated with the cosmopolitan world of high fashion. On the other hand, I love a bargain and the thrill of shopping for just the right piece.
I have a degree in English from the University of Kentucky, and since 2002 I’ve written a column for the Lexington Herald-Leader about shopping, beauty and fashion. During that time I’ve interviewed everyone from designers to boutique owners about trends and style. And I’m still forever searching for the next big sale.
