validator, trunk show, words of fashion

Tim Smith, ya just got ta love im!

Validator, Welcome Wagon, BFF, and more...

He thinks of these things and then throws it to the people.

This year it's all about the "white board"!

Thinking he could be yet another giver

of the overwhelming information needed to navigate

this years festival he said, I need a board to help me do my job.

Well Tim your job is to be the "man"

that starts and ends the hallway to films and we love it!

This years "white board" has become a means

of old fashion communication

who needs face book when you have a sharpie.

On this day the board was all about the word "Interntional".

"Do you speak a foreign language?" Tim would ask.

As you can see not only did they speak they wrote.

Tim what would we do with out you?????

You better stop by and participate

in the every growing organic board...

Thanks Denise and Mike

we are getting a slow start...

It's hard to shut down the daily grind and emerge
 yourself in the world of film but we made it to a few today!

Forgot to tell, we are joined this year by our film buddy Diva J,

seen here hanging out with Mr. Bob Anderson at the opening night party.

Last year she missed out on the blog launch

but this year our trend setting girlfriend is in the mix...

Here are a few new and old  friends at last nights party.

....no slow start for Diva P, she is so deep in the film festival we may not see her till the closing party.

Penny come out come out where ever you are.....

opening night

So hear is our story...

we love the film festival

we love fashion

why not combine the two!

Last year we began our blog as a way to enhance our festival experience.

We see old friends, we make new friends

and along the way we look at what people wear to the films.

Actually the festival gives Diva D a reason to wear those

great vintage finds she hunts for all year!

The party begins...

With winter back in Cleveland, ok did it ever leave?

Diva D switched from her original plan

rhinestones and sheer tunic to leopard and leather

 she is joined by Diva P looking chic in crinoline!

Put producer Paul Cusato's film on your list of must see...

The Goose

What a thrill to meet  Matt "the Hammer" Hamill!

Who didn't enjoy the opening film Hamill...

Stay tuned for more opening night photos
