Despite the multitude of local events within walking distance of the Baldwin School (we counted at least 4 other holiday fairs!), shoppers came in droves to snap up all sorts of handmade lovelies. Scenes include:
1) Appearance by Jess Graham (despite the ice storm in VT!)
2) Salmagundi's Jessen plays style guru to the hat-deprived
3) DJ Paul Liberty joined us and got rave reviews
4) Laura Buchen of Bu-kin sold out of her strapless dress, compliments of the Globe review last Sunday

Fashionistas, come early, I've been fielding calls all day and there's sure to be lots o' competition for these affordable runway-ready dresses.
