Hello world! It's Teena here, the founder of Maryland Style Bloggers. This is our first post here on MSB! I just want to say thank you so much for visiting the Maryland Style Bloggers blog. We hope you will become a regular reader and enjoy what we have in store! Stay tuned in the coming months as we are on the move to set things into motion! I just have to say I am so excited to have what started out as a simple idea turn into a real effort and a community! It's the best feeling.
At any rate, let me switch gears and talk about an amazing event that myself and a handful of other local blogger/vloggers and fashion enthusiasts had the pleasure to attend a couple weeks back -- the Boulevard of Chic event! I was so stoked for this event when I was first contacted about it back in February. It was a day full of fashion trucks, food and vendors! I was sold after that! Say no more. I have been saying for a while now that the city of Baltimore (and Maryland as a whole) has so many creative and stylish people here that there is so reason we can't pull off great fashion events like other cities. I was in attendance as a VIP blogger for this event, so I had a special VIP badge and gift bag waiting for me at the welcoming desk when I arrived. (Holla!) I was also able to partake in yummy cupcakes and sip water in a special media tent especially for all the VIP bloggers in attendance to live blog and network with other bloggers. Fancy!
As soon as I got there, I met the kind Tracy Beale of Tracy Beale Jewelry whose jewelry was all handmade and simply to die for. I wanted it all! I chatted with Tracy for a few minutes about her brand and sadly left empty handed, but it was evident that she loved what she does. From there, I took pictures of the various fashion trucks on site. I had no idea there was so many fashion trucks out there! I was in heaven! I think the idea of fashion trucks is simply genius and it brings back that sense of personalized shopping. I got to talk to all of the owners one on one and I got to here their stories on how/why they started their business. It was inspiring to say the least!
A couple of my favorite trucks were Street Boutique owned by who is based out of DC, Side Dish based out of Baltimore
