Last week, I had the pleasure of traveling to San Diego to headline the 7th Annual "Fashion With A Passion" Event and Fashion Show Benefiting Make-A-Wish San Diego. The event was held at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising/FIDM San Diego, and my Alma Mater--FIDM--was kind enough to underwrite my appearance and fashion show.
Silent Auction Room: 2017 "Fashion With A Passion" Benefiting Make-A-Wish San Diego, FIDM San Diego
The annual event is very popular for many reasons, including the fact that it benefits Make-A-Wish San Diego, as well as for its Wine-and-Food, Accessories Swap, latest Fashion Finds tables, amazing raffles, wonderful Silent Auction and THE Fashion Show. Prior to the actual event, I filmed some fun TV segments with local San Diego TV stations including FOX5 San Diego as well as San Diego Living Morning Show on CW6...
