Funkshion Fashion Week 2012

We went on trip for our 25th birthday to the "party in the city where the heat is on, all night on the beach till the break of dawn." If you haven't figured it out, MIAMI! Though it wasn't our first time in the city, this time I wasn't drowning my face into textbooks. On Friday we were invited to Funkshion Fashion week, which coincidentally landed the days we would be on our vacation. We arrived at the beautiful venue surrounded by grass, a perfect set for the Guria Swimwear show, sponsored by Sensa. Every time, I just want to belt out "shake, shake, shake, shake your Sensa." Below are some of our favorite picks! 

 Of course the Millionaire Matchmaker star Patti Stanger walked down the runway. Mid stride,  Patti's bathing suit top popped off under her sheer purple tunic and she panicked, tried getting help to adjust her top and eventually walked off the catwalk. Talk about a grand entrance! Though we love Patti for her bold personality, walking off stage didn't look good at all. 

Followed after the Miami Red Dress show which featured gowns contributed by designers such as Oscar de la Renta, Carolina Herrera, Calvin Klein and Nicole Miller. Celebs strutted their stuff down the runway to benefit the American Heart Association. To get more info about the #1 killer amongst women, heart disease, go to the AHA website.

I snagged this great lace dress from H&M at an awesome deal and wanted to balance the softness of the lace and color (purple, my fave!) with a bold color. Because it was the Go Red campaign, red, seemed to be the perfect color.

We would like to thank Funkshion for extending the invite, we had a great time. 
Though Miami will always be like a second home, there is nothing like New York City. Here's to another 25 years! xo, Jeke
