My meeting went so well, and I was fitted with a "test shirt" of the same fabric and size that I will wear at the show. It was one that was leftover from last summer's fundraiser design.
MY shirt will be something related to being a "rockstar chick". Dr. Brandt will be dressed in something "urban edgy New York rocker" style. Our outfits will be from a shop called "Urban Edge".
I added my pictures from the fitting to the group photos.

Should've said Dr. Brandt's outfit will be from "Urban Edge".
MY outfit is from "bentley B". Click here for their website. They've got really cool vintage tees for pets, and you can send in a human t-shirt of your own to have them make into a cat/dog shirt!

Hi everyone! My fashion show debut went off without a hitch! Forgive us for not wanting to write everything multiple times. I've posted all about it over on our family's blog: the PDX pride. Just click that link, and you'll find all the fun pictures, my tale, and the video Mommy took!
Love,
Tabby.

I was on TV the night of the fashion show! FOX 12 Oregon showed the first few models on their 10:00 pm news, and I was one of them! Mommy's mom saw me!
*dancing around in happiness*
I can't find a link to it, but if I do I will definitely share it.
One of the professional photographer's pictures from the event are up on her Shutterfly site. The link is in my diary. Mommy and I are there, and my stroller can also be seen in some of the pictures! MOL!
