The Modest is Hottest Fashion Show will feature clothing by trendy, local designers Sandy Higgins and Jenni Buentello.
Sandy Higgins is the owner of The Crackerjack Shack (www,crackerjackshack.com), a local sewing and embroidery company that she operates in her own 1,000+ square foot home studio. Sandy, who sews, embroiders, teaches and writes, has clients that include stay-at-home moms, schools, clubs, churches, and corporate executives who have entrusted her with their company’s corporate logo wear. People who know Sandy, describe her as a true go-getter who doesn’t let much grass grow under her feet. She’s ambitious, to say the least, but she truly loves what she does. She’s also bound and determined to instill a love for the sewing arts in the next generation of entrepreneurs.
“It’s an art I simply won’t let go of,” said Sandy. “From digitizing an intricate embroidery design to managing yards and yards of beautiful fabric at a time, there is something about seeing things come together in stitches that feeds every part of who I am.”
Jenni Buentello is the owner of Poshy Tots Children’s Boutique, www.poshytots.com. She loves to create new designs that you can’t find anywhere else. Jenni said, “I have been an at-home mother for seven years and just recently started designing hair bows and custom clothing. I was so sick of never finding what I wanted at stores and when I did they were way to expensive. So I started a bowtique that everyday moms can afford.”
Poshy Tots offers bows, headbands, custom couture, pillowcase dresses, girly couture, flower hats, baby couture, tutus, scarfs and hats and fashionets. Jenni strives to create funky, yet fashionable designs that are unique. Plan today to be in the audience when the Modest in Hottest Fashion Show hits the stage and the adorable models show off their precious couture clothing.
Stick around after the show and meet designers Sandy Higgins and Jenni Buentello. Jenni will be vending her boutique items and Sandy will be presenting classes and doing book signings for her latest e-book.
