Coffey Break Chat: How to Start a Fashion Truck

Hey guys!
Sunday, March 23rd, we had the pleasure of kicking off our very first Fashion Truck Block party with Crave Sushi benefitting Mia’s Closet! Fashion trucks Park Boutique, Shoe Bar, Punch Drunk Fashion Truck, Urban Izzy  and our vintage line The Coffey Shop joined forces to bring our city a fun filled afternoon of shopping, food and sounds by DJ Fanci!
Warmest thanks to Clifford Pugh of Culture Map and Channel 11 for their wonderful support by spreading the word, here: Heels on wheels: Fashion trucks come together for parking lot party, and a million hugs and kisses to fashion bloggers Magen Pastor and Meagan Ball-Jordan for coverage of the event!
See below for my interview with Lillie Parks of Park Boutique where we highlight tips on how to start a fashion truck business and photos from the event. Hope to see you at the next one!! Enjoy!
Peace, Love & Sunshine ~Chelsea

The Woman Behind the H&M You Know & Love

Nicole Christie: The Woman Behind the H&M You Know & Love

This may appear to be an ode to Nicole Christie, and I don’t know that I can argue anything short of that. H&M’s brilliance and commitment to redefining norms clearly extends beyond their clothing! Nicole Christie is a refreshing example of someone who can have it all, and still remain humble. I had the pleasure of catching up with the Fashion Star judge, and she offered some great advice to our Coffey Break readers!

Houston has received two H&M’s over the course of the last two months, and Houstonians couldn’t be more excited! We discussed the future of H&M in Houston, how to start a career in fashion and the benefits of getting a college education. Check out the interview below:
