Mi Chiamo Eka: Photos from Last Night
Wednesday, August 6, 2008
I was at K Street last night for the launch of Ebong Eka’s Mi Chiamo Eka line. I wore white linen dress pants and my forties-style floral blouse and it felt perfect for the weather. A lot of women were in black dresses and a lot of makeup and major heel – a very typical (but still attractive, really) look for the clubs and lounges along the K Street corridor. I was just surprised, I guess, by how different my outfit was from most every other woman there. A few exceptions: Washington Life’s Krista Bullion, who looked delicately lovely in an off-the-shoulder floral dress and another woman in a long teal number from Bebe (now I’m mad that I didn’t snap their photos!). I also realized how rare it is that I get really really dressed up.
With true fashion-world flair, the show started a good 30 minutes or more late…

Cool necklace (dice!). She bought it at Anthroplogie.
