I was lucky enough to get invited to Grapevine Mills for a blogger party and preview for the Celebrating Women event.  The day of style fun started with a fall trend presentation from the Last Call by Neiman Marcus Stylist, Brandy Lunsford.  Before working for Last Call, Brandy was a fashion designer who went to Parsons and was taught by Tim Gunn; plus she also worked for Lucky Magazine.  How cool is that?  Brandy is all about building an "archive" of style and not being "a slave to trends."  I love that she helps people develop this personal styles.  Some of my favorite trends she highlighted are fur, printed pants, and color-blocking.

It was my first time to visit the Grapevine Mills mall, and I couldn't have been more impressed with the friendliness of the team and the quality of the shopping experience.  The bloggers and I got an inside look at H&M, Saks Off 5th, Coach, and the AMC movie theater.  Plus, I met some fellow fashion bloggers from Dallas.  I can't wait until October 19 for the Celebrating Women event to see even more fall fashions!

I'm in love with these Prada beauties at Last Call!

The Grapevine Mills team gave us a very generous swag bag.  I scored gift cards to Last Call, Old Navy, and Nike... plus other cool stuff from the stores
