The Glamorama is an event that Macy’s hosts to fundraise money for the Children’s Cancer Research Fund.

It’s Fashion and Fun in the name of Helping our Community

This year it was held at the State Theater in Downtown, Minneapolis. I was extremely excited to attend! Not only is there a wonderful display of this coming season of must have looks, but also entertainment by Summer Set, Cirque Du Soleil and (one of my favorites) Sheryl Crow.

The State Theater was packed!

It was so hard to find something to wear in my closet for an event this cool! This is what I came up with…

My Glam -

I found a parking spot Downtown as close as I could. There was a game and some other stuff going on down there. I parked 9 blocks away from the State Theater! I like walking (enough) that it wasn’t too big of a deal.

The ambassador, Yvonne is 12 years old and from St. Paul. She doesn’t let her Hodgkin’s Lymphoma slow her down, too much. She has a love for gymnastics and dance. During some of her treatments Yvonne could be found dancing away on her toes. This summer she is enrolled in a circus school! Yvonne is named after her Grandma and her smile lights up the whole room.

Yvonne the Heart and Soul of the Show -

The band Summer Set was featured as the iHeartRadio winners.

Girl Drummers Rock!

The guys who put in a ton of work, long hours and sweat…

Fashion Manager, Paul Anthony & Mike Gansmoe, VP of Special Productions

Lookin’ Fab!

I got to meet the Twin Cities Live Crew!!!!!!!

ps – sheryl crow was behind us…

Now, it was time to find our seats. Which you would think would be such an easy thing to do. However, a group of ladies were in mine. I got turned around and the show was just starting. Without fail my PR Super Hero came to save the day!

New Seat in the Front Row!!!

I have no idea how the people in Cirque Du Soleil can do the amazing things they perform on stage! It is outstanding to watch!

oh.my.word.

Jean Paul Gaultier – is a designer I am digging!

The models were all pampered by Spalon Montage and Lancome. In case you wanted to go get all done up for an upcoming date night. There are also great sales going on at Macy’s right now. I saw a 65% off rack just today!

Beauty is hard Work.

More fashion statements that are guaranteed to turn heads -

Rachel Rachel Roy designs such stunning looks.

I would love to go to the school PTO meeting in this…

The music and introductions to the designs were emotionally moving. I found myself singing along to some of the background music and at times I also felt a tug within giving me a sense of being alone. It was staged so well, that I don’t have the right words to explain it to you. I guess this will work…
