It’s the official last day of summer! Summer 2016 was a good one. In some ways it seemed to go too fast, but I also love fall and am so ready to embrace it! The School of Styling‘s Summer Bash was a big highlight of this summer so it feels proper to bid this season farewell with a blog post of some of our favorite images from that sweet summer night! 

The School of Styling team does everything with excellence and this event was no different. They had so many amazing things planned all night long. Before the mini-workshop began attendees got to browse pop up shops from Parris Chic Boutique, Vestique, Jollity & Co., Kendra Scott, Swoozies, and Meredith Parker Fine Art all while snacking on the cutest watermelon pops. Classes were offered from founder Kaitlin Holland, photographer Perry Vaile, designer Lauren Hooker of Elle & co., and calligrapher Alexa Behar of Sage Paper Co. 

The evening ended with an amazing cocktail party on the lawn of Merrimon Wynne. The ladies of TSOS love to give away amazing goodies and the Summer Bash had some of my favorite giveaways yet! Parris Chic Boutique, Tieks, Marigold & Grey, Moon & Lola, and Greige Designs were all sponsors of giveaways. 

See even more images from the evening on The School of Styling’s blog! Make sure to check out part one and part two 🙂 

Farewell, summer! You’ve been bright and cheery and we’re thankful.
