A week of fashionable adventures has kicked off at one of the most fashion-forward malls in Central Florida. The Mall at Millenia—one of my favorite malls in Orlando—has once again kicked off its 13^th annual Fashion Celebration this year. I had the pleasure of attending a rather lavish private Fashion Insider breakfast with many of my neighboring Fashion Bloggers of Orlando. The breakfast was held inside the center atrium inside The Mall at Millenia and hosted by stylist Melanie Pace. A beautiful display of Botanical flowers were elegantly placed in front of each reserved seat, multiple pop-up stands of fashionable ensembles for both Women’s’ and Men’s fashion were on display for our observation, and Fashion Bloggers from across the land of Central Florida—including myself—sat ecstatically as we listened to Melanie Pace explain the various up-and-coming events the mall had to offer this season. This would be my second year as a Fashion Influencer for The Mall at Millenia’s Fall Fashion Celebration, so I was especially excited to participate in this year’s escapades. This year, guests have the option to participate in a plethora of events that are both sponsored by many of the Mall’s vendors and stores and partnered with various fashion influencers and media representatives alike. Kicking off on September 17^th, participants can choose to attend an event each day for the entire week. A full list of events can be reviewed below or at the Mall’s website. I, myself, will be attending their annual Runway to Hope event, held on September 20^th at 6pm. Admission tickets start at $125 per person and can be purchased Here. The Mall at Millenia will be donating 10% of their store sales to Runway to Hope in order to aid terminally ill children. Other events include Craft your Style with Fashion Influencers—where guest will get to meet other fashion influencers, MUAs and stylists, and a Fashion Celebration held on Saturday September 22^nd. So whip out your most fashionable look for Fall, and get ready for a week full of style. – David’s Manor, David Plowden.
