Good day today we got up and ran one and a half mile down the strip to Aria and another mile and a half back. It was cool seeing Vegas differently. I’ve always felt that I experience my surroundings differently when you run through you environment. Beginning to really see Vegas and its soul bit by bit. We ran past some art galleries on the way too and of course the work was amazing. There was an art gallery full of sculptures by a guy named Richard McDonald. We’re gonna have to go back and check that out.
So as far as magic is concerned we got a lot accomplished, checked out wholesale garments, sourcing and even got to see about half of Project.
Checked out Fruition again too. Turns out that they had what seemed to be a women pride cupcake motivational speaking event going down. What really went down was a community gathering to hear one of the founders of Stussy speak about her personal journey to a group of eager listeners. We didn’t hear her speak but from the energy and the comments in the room afterward we are lead to believe she inspired the room. The folks at Fruition are always cool and show mad love. Met Chris Julian, Ed from Eighty81 Val’s mom, Nick, and Herbert.
I ended up at this crazy ass party at this monstrous club called XS. Surprisingly a lot of folks I knew were there The Cool Kids, Dee & Ricky, Zoe of Fashion Geek, Quigi from BKCircus, Brandon Crawford and about 6 other Chicago folks whose names I don’t know. A lot going on but I had to leave, we got a meeting in the morning. I’m bout to lay it down cause tomorrow we have a business meeting with Crawford Kreative CEO. We’re looking good out here.
