And you thought Santa Cruz wasn’t on the cusp of fashion? Think again. Tis’ the fashion show season for our humble town by the sea. On Saturday, June 26, you’ve got two fashionable decisions to make. And later, on July 9, it’s time to invoke your inner fashion goddess once again. Let’s start with your itinerary: On Saturday, June 26, sometime during the day, you’re going to swing by Cameron Marks (402 Ingalls St.) on the Westside and check out the expansive trunk show featuring a handful of designers, chat about skin care and drench yourself in new jewelry. And while you’re there, pick up some food at the Kelly’s Dinner Market beginning at 6 p.m. Once you’re happy and stuffed, hoof it over to Katwalk Salon (902 Soquel Ave.) for an 8 p.m. runway show hosted by the ladies of Idle Hands, a co-op boutique in downtown Santa Cruz, where they’re holding a charity fashion show for one of Santa Cruz’s Derby Girls, “Babs Bomber,” who’s out of commission dealing with an injury. Then, a few weeks later, you’re going to swing by Stripe at 107 Walnut Ave. around 6 p.m. for their fashion show, “The Thistle in the Kiss,” at 8 p.m., where clothing by Lex Designs, jewelry by Stripe, and accessories by Nuala will walk down the runway. Summer just got a whole lot better in Santa Cruz.
.Tis’ the Season
