My weekend was GRAND! I attended the Nora and Nicky’s Fashion Show in downtown Raleigh, NC on Friday benefiting the Jamie Kirk Hahn Foundation. Nora and Nicky’s is an upscale consignment boutique, founded in 2010, with two local stores in Raleigh. I fell in love with this boutique a few years ago when I discovered it while looking for a high quality store to consign with. Their philosophy reads “We believe in the power of women, community and sustainability. We believe in “Live Local, Think Global.” How cool is that? Nothing makes me happier than businesses that not only care about local communities, but also care about the world.
Before the fashion show I knew very little about the Jamie Kirk Hahn Foundation, but once I took some time to research, I knew there was no way I could miss supporting this event because of its mission. The Jamie Kirk Hahn Foundation is focused on creating a network of active, diverse, empowering and motivating emerging leaders and community-based organizations to lift up their communities and work on the issues such as poverty, food justice, hunger, and public education. The network is then equipped to do good in the community.

Downtown Raleigh has grown so much over the years. Every time I pay it a visit, there’s something new to see and I love it more and more! Upon arriving there was a very beautiful vintage bike outside the boutique welcoming everyone inside

These fabulous ladies are the marketing team for Nora and Nicky’s. They are fierce, dedicated, and savvy.
Jillian Ohl is the local artist of the Watercolor Painting provided for the auction. We had a great conversation! Her art is beautiful and she has a personality to match. http://www.jillianohl.com/#!about/c240r

I had such a wonderful time meeting new people, shopping and seeing the fashion show. To know it was for a wonderful benefit made it even more special! Be sure to stop by and visit one of the Nora and Nicky’s locations. Whether you consign or not, you will be sure to love the customer service, and find something unique.
Love,
