Tabletop Tuesday: POSH Petite

Tuesday, May 1, 2012
As you can see from the previous post, we had the chance to contribute to the Salvation Army's Fashion Show Auxiliary Luncheon yesterday. Here is a peek at the POSH Petite line dreamed up by Jami Goetze and Laurel Howell - perfect for a birthday party or children's area at your next event or wedding.

Our ladies love Serendipity, the New York City cafe known for it's over-the-top Frrrozen Hot Chocolate and sweets and treats. We extended the theme to our girls table with a serendipitous birthday party, complete with pink polka dot plates, hot pink scalloped chargers, pink carnival glasses, and black and white striped linens.  The buffet held an adorable ferris wheel cupcake holder with a variety of pedestals, platters, and milk glass for treats from Society Bakery.
Surprises come in small packages: These miniature pink chiavari chairs pack a punch. What little girl wouldn't want this for a birthday party? This is also perfect for a flower girl table at your wedding.
The girls aren't the only ones having fun. We went with a nautical theme for the boys. Orange cups and footed bowls, rattan charges, and navy linens were a hit for little sailors.

Toast: Salvation Army Fashion Show

Yesterday, POSH had the pleasure of contributing to the DFW Salvation Army's Doing the Most Good With Your Clothes Fashion Show at the Fairmont Hotel. Emcee's Pat and Emmitt Smith lit up the room with their presence, and Mr. Smith shared a sincere story of how the Salvation Army shaped his life as a young man. Without the Salvation Army, Texas might not have been able to boast that one of our favorite Cowboys is the NFL's all-time rushing leader and Super Bowl champ on top of a wildly successful career. Kudos to Jan Strimple for an amazingly staged and produced show, Drybar for great hair, and the lovely honorary chairmen, Karen Jones and Lori Jones, and co-chairs, Mary Lee Cox and Therese Rourk. Last but not least, the fabulous ladies and gentlemen of the Salvation Army. What a great and worthy cause. 



A few of our favorite looks from the runway show. We especially loved the Carolina Herrera sheer bell sleeved blouse (top left). 




Show stopping final look: A custom bridal gown. The camera couldn't capture the beautiful detail of this stunning dress - or it's dramatic exit.
