For those who don't know me,&nbsp;I'm not prone to unwarranted flattery. I mean every word, Inge. &nbsp;You and Angie (and Greg, of course ;-)&nbsp;have built this fab community of supportive women who happen to have fashion in common, such that we were able to come together this weekend and make lasting friendships. I hope to get a chance to see you before you head back to Belgium, though I know your schedule must be crazy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/seattle-shoptember-inge-fest-cocktail-shindig/page/3#post-1368283 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 04:28:27 +0000 Inge 1368283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm chiming in late, but I too want to thank you and Steve again for a brilliant evening. Thank you so much Ann. You guys are the perfect hosts and spoiled us rotten with all the super delicious food, the Fab napkings,&nbsp;and our very own signature cocktail. It was such a treat to dress up for the party, see all the other ladies in their magnificent outfits (your blue dress was out of this world stunning), and get to mingle, chat and laugh all evening long. Plus it was super fun to check out your bikes and twin closets:-)</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/seattle-shoptember-inge-fest-cocktail-shindig/page/3#post-1368266 Fri, 03 Oct 2014 04:05:29 +0000 dashielle (Ann) 1368266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ladies, the pleasure was all ours &nbsp;Mi casa es su casa!&nbsp;Steve really enjoyed himself and getting to meet all of you, I mean, come on...what man in his right mind wouldn't?&nbsp; I think he "gets" why I spend time on the forum now!<br /><b>Angie</b>, you ARE royalty...duh!<br /><b>Mary,</b> glad to be a part of your fab birthday weekend and you SHOULD have lavender flowers in all your cocktails!<br /><b>Deb</b>, you were a lifesaver at the party,&nbsp;seriously. BFFs!<br /><b>AJ</b>, you and your sister...I just wanna squeeze you!<br /><b>Aida</b>, my polish and feline&nbsp;sister, separated at birth (and a billion years, lol). My chilluns loved you, no surprise. Come back soon!<br /><b>Sveta</b>, you are just a doll and I'm soooo happy you could make it down for SSIF. A weekend for the books, no?</p> <p>I'm planning on doing a big post this weekend to share recipes and such, and I know Greg has put together a DropBox for photos so we can all share with each other and those folks who couldn't make it. Be patient fabbers, we're just now recovering from the weekend!

I'm back from the "Land of the Lost" after several crazy weeks of prepping for a business trip to Germany, and the travel associated with it, and I'm ready to get this party started! </p> <p>Party is Sunday, September 28th starting at 7pm. Attire is cocktail, which as fabbers, you know there is no one right way to do. Wear something festive that you don't get to wear often, but that you feel fab in. We will have wine (white and red) and a signature cocktail, as well as non-alcoholic beverages. Various hors d'oeuvres and nibbles will be provided to accompaniment. </p> <p>Parking will be somewhat limited in my 'hood, so I recommend ridesharing. Feel free to reach out if you would like a ride, and we'll see who is coming from where. So far, I know that Mary is on point for corralling the out of towners. Those of you are driving, PM me for the address. Looking forward to a fantastic weekend! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/seattle-shoptember-inge-fest-cocktail-shindig/page/2#post-1339960 Tue, 26 Aug 2014 02:48:59 +0000 Cerinda 1339960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such a lovely invitation! &nbsp;But I will have to be en route to Portland before then, &nbsp;Thanks, though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/seattle-shoptember-inge-fest-cocktail-shindig/page/2#post-1339723 Mon, 25 Aug 2014 19:59:17 +0000 Inge 1339723@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry to hear you can't make it K.
