Fashion Week: Louis Vuitton Grand Re-Opening + LOTN Suede Dress

We had a VIP tour during fashion Week

at the newly renovated and designed

Louis Vuitton in Tampa. This is the

first one to be renovated in the country

and has art from local artists, sea shell

walls, sections for everything they sale

as well as a VIP area (not shown because

someone was in there) which you can use

to shop or pick up your items.

I am loving how bright and open the new

store is. The store also now has the Pat

McGrath Labs makeup as well.

I will be uploading an additional photo because I didn't realized this dressed was twisted on me when I had it on. Its supposed to be aligned in the same way a double breasted coat would be, so as you see, the buttons are in the middle and on the side, but they should be both on the front of the dress.

Its twisted by about 4 inches and that actually makes a huge difference because I had trouble zipping the very top up and thats probably why. It's something I should have caught, but I was really in a rush because I had to have an appointment to do this tour and I was wondering why the dress was fitting strange. When I saw the photos I knew why immediately.

But I would not advise wearing a suede dress in Florida in the Summer. It was not the business. It's a beautiful dress nnonetheless. I was not hot in it because the weathwr has been mild (90 degrees with moderate sun), but the dress itself is restricting and it is also hard to walk in because its so long.

Hubby also got dressed up for Fashion Week and look at this he has lost almost 50 pounds since December.

The new store is quite pretty and I love how open it is. It moves customers through the store I stead of everyone stopping in the very front of the store at one spot. I also love the lighting and the local art.
