Houston, I’m Officially Crushing on You: Arts Edition

Fashion Plate, Arsenal 7 Series, and The Lion King Musical

To say the least, I am having a bit of a summer romance with the city of Houston. There is an abundance of events and activities to take part in, and trying to juggle all the ones I find interesting has been a bit of a challenge. Sunday night  I had the pleasure of going to KING + MUSIC + FASHION + YOU at Mongoose Versus Cobra and it was the perfect  combination.

For starters, if you haven’t been to Mongoose Versus Cobra yet, go. It’s swanky in a subtle way, and the exposed brick wall makes for a great impromptu photo shoot -never a disappointment. The original designs by Arsenal 7 Series designers Kyle Futrell and KK are one of a kind, and I was totally blown away by the friendliness of the Lion King cast. Oh, and did I mention that the DJ was amazing?! His name is DJ Francesco Conti, and my poor Shazam was getting put to work! Words can’t capture all the reasons why I had a such a good time Sunday night, but maybe the photos and video will.

Enjoy!
