We absolutely love Phoenix Fashion Week. We look forward to the week all year long because it entails fun people, fabulous fashion, and loads of entertainment. We, of course, have our favorite places to get ready, eat dinner, and hang out afterwards. But, this year, we thought that instead of just telling our close inner circle our “Phoenix Fashion Week Short List” we would share with our fabulous audience the places you will find us this week.

Primp
Beauty starts with skin first. Get ready for the week by scheduling yourself an organic facial or brow shaping in order to put your best face forward. We love how much better sugaring is for the skin, and don’t miss the pain or redness of waxing either.

Park Avenue Blow Dry and Beauty Bar
We can’t say enough about the absolutely fabulous blowouts at Park Avenue. Billy Rudd, one of their designer stylists, is an absolute miracle worker when it comes to cut, color, and styling. Interested in seeing a sample of his work? Check out this fabulous photo shoot.

Looking for a new experience in makeup? Look no further. The Sparkle Bar seeks to remove the pressure of buying typically associated with makeup appointments at luxury counters. Their promise is to leave you feeling sparkling, and can anyone ask for anything more than that?

Dress
Ever wonder where the cool girls of Scottsdale get their unique pieces? It’s probably at Crush. The owner, Heather Holm, has an incredible eye for what’s next in fashion. Not only will our team be wearing Crush every night of Phoenix Fashion Week, we will be shopping there for years to come as well.

What could be more appropriate than wearing one of the emerging designers to the event? Hues of Ego has an incredible fan following, and for good reason. Her pieces of feminine, flirty and totally unique. Be sure to find her booth at the Style Villa at Phoenix Fashion Week to get your hands on this incredible collection.

We loved Arae at Shop Garment District and have continued to remain big fans. Her shibori technique is absolutely stunning and, because it’s done by hand, makes every piece one of a kind. The hardest part will be deciding just what piece from the collection you want.

Eat
Fox Restaurants always seem to get it right, but The Henry is a new level of excellence. Their gourmet menu is both surprising and delicious with interesting twists on classic dishes. Start off your evening with some Prairie Breeze Cheddar Popovers and you’re sure to be in a good mood for the fashion shows to follow.
For more information, visit FOXRC.com/The-Henry,
Windsor is one of many fantastic concept restaurants from Upward Projects. We particularly love the historic vibe and incredible patio that lend the perfect atmosphere to their delicious drinks and nibbles. Grab the No. 88 cocktail if you’re looking for some seriously unique flavor to surprise your palette.

A downtown destination, Hanny’s is definitely a go-to destination for Phoenicians. Luxury department store turned restaurant, Hanny’s is full of unique quirks that make dining an experience you will never forget. Be sure to check out their basement… but make sure you use the buddy system if you’re easily spooked.
For more information, visit Hannys.net.

Feeling like stepping back in time? After you’ve seen the future of fashion, take a trip to the past at The Beverly. The luxurious seating, delicious drink selection, and dim lighting feels equal parts luxurious and romantic – the perfect way to wind down the evening.
For more information, visit TheBeverly.us.
If you’re feeling too pumped up to relax after the shows, take out some energy at Top Golf in Scottsdale. No need to be pro here. Top Golf’s fun atmosphere prioritizes smiles over scores. Just make sure to bring a change of shoes… golfing in heels isn’t as chic as it sounds.
For more information, visit TopGolf.com/Riverwalk.
Stay
Enjoy a little staycation at Talking Stick Resort. If you’re going to be around for the shows, why not make a weekend out of it and enjoy the spacious rooms, gorgeous pools, and exciting gambling offered by the resort? You’ll be having so much fun, you’ll forget you’re not in Vegas.
