Lunar Gala is a student-run organization at Carnegie Mellon University devoted to promoting fashion talent and innovation throughout the campus community. Each February Lunar Gala produces a fashion show that showcases students; work in fashion, dance, and modeling. In addition, the show brings together the incredible talent of CMU designers, programmers, artists, and technicians to create what is truly the year's most exciting campus event. Lunar Gala shines as the example of the innovative and interdisciplinary teamwork that can only come out of CMU. This year's Lunar Gala, entitled HYPNOSE will incorporate kaleidoscopic videos, a Red Bull unusual materials competition, and wearable technology. HYPNOSE is scheduled for Saturday, February 15, starting promptly at 8p.m. in Wiegand Gym. This event will showcase the young talent of Pittsburgh and is sure to be something that you do not want to miss!

Summer Soiree & Fashion Show scheduled for July 25th

Just letting you guys in on an upcoming event that I am really excited for! Pretty Living PR, is hosting Pretty in Paradise, a summer soiree to benefit UPMC Cancer Center for Melanoma Research on NEXT Thursday, July 25th at The Cabana Bar in Wexford, Pa.

The event is, obviously, beach-themed and will feature a fashion show by Tidal Cool Creations, who was featured on Chels & the City a while back for Fashion Forward Fridays. This event will also offer raffles, local celebrities, hors d'oeuvres, and prizes! While the event starts at 7p.m., Tidal Cool Creations will start their fashion show at 9p.m. and you really don't want to miss this because it is the last runway/party before Tidal Cool heads off to New York Fashion Week!

Need a little more convincing? The cause that you will be supporting, UPMC Cancer Center, offers comprehensive diagnostic services, cutting-edge treatments and supportive care to patients with melanoma and non melanoma skin cancers. Also, specialty care options are available through the Melanoma and Skin Cancer Program of the University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute, patients also have access to a large network of community-based physicians. So, you'll have a great night and you'll be supporting a very important and worthy case.
