Minutes upon our arrival:
Show Coordinator: "PAUSE! Someone dropped out of the fashion show!"
Us: "Oh, that sucks. Who are yo-"
Show Coordinator: "GET EIGHT OUTFITS TOGETHER! I'LL BE BACK TO GET THEM IN 15 MINUTES!"
Us: "Buh?"
If I can offer you one bit of advice, it's this: Always, and I mean ALWAYS have extra party hats, bows, candy, noise makers, balloons and presents on hand. You never know when you'll be
Despite having no set-up time, or the fact that we've never participated in a fashion show before. It seemed to be a hit. No one threw any produce at the models, nor did the models spit on us for dressing them up like that afterwards. Score! In addition to the fashion show, we also had an all round hootenanny of a good time there. We reunited with many old friends, made even more new ones (Hey Cat!), sold more Pause apparel than you can shake a stick at, AND ate our body weight in Cora's and The Pickle barrel each day. Ladies and gentlemen, it doesn't get much better than that.
Also, the following people either helped us out, or were awesome to us this year in one way or another, and deserve to be thanked: Shannon, Mel, Katrina, Jenna, Lindz, Dana, Rose, Steph, other Steph, Taylor, Taylor #2, Darcy, Steve, Doritos, Cat, Jesse, Valerie, Josh, Dawn, and that sassy Asian girl across from us whose name we can't ever remember. You are all welcome to anything in our fridge.
Oh, and if you're wondering about the sheer greatness of the model's sweater above: Yes it is in fact real. Yes it comes in 4 colours. And yes, it will be available through our online store and various retailers within the next couple weeks. Stay tuned!
In the meantime, if you're interested in other sneak peeks of new styles/more photos from the fashion show, you can check them out HERE.
