Friends!
I believe Style X would be a perfect nominee for the final category in Austin Chronicle's "Best Of 2011" awards ... yes, the WILD CARD category.
Why? As a result of Style X, and the 15,000 shoppers attracted in just 18 hours with an estimated haul of $180,000 in consumer spending, we can firmly say that style – like its creative siblings, music, film and technology – deserves a seat at the SXSW table. Please check out this video to get a sampling of what this past year’s event was like.
I am also very proud of some of the things written about this event including Fashionista writing, “With tons of designer showcases and a runway show chock-full of SXSW musicians-turned-models, Style X is certainly living up to its reputation as the first event bridging the gap between fashion and music, with a sharp focus on emerging talent,” and The New York Times writing, “Forget about downloading cool new apps, viewing acclaimed indie flicks or listening to Next Big Things — it’s about discovering the trends before they inundate malls across America.”
Please help me spread the word via FB/Twitter/etc.

P.S. And Apothecary Cafe & Wine Bar (on Twitter @ApothecaryATX) would be a great choice for "best kept secret"...
