VIP Memphis Magazine October 2010: Letter from the Editor

My husband Blake and I celebrated our one year wedding anniversary in September, which has officially become my favorite month of the year. We had a fun filled month including the Women + Running Graduation 5K - congratulations ladies, Art on Tap, Panera Bread and Wing’s Foundation Bet Against Breast Cancer event, which will be featured in the November issue and many others.

There are many upcoming events to mention including Little Black Dress at Lexus of Memphis on October 21st to benefit Dress For Success Memphis, Memphis Area Legal Services 40th Anniversary Celebration, Zoo Boo and Susan G. Komen Race For the Cure.

October is historically the most beautiful time of year to live, work and play in Memphis and this year should be no different. I expected the Autumnal Equinox to bring a wave of cooler weather with it, and it has taken some time, but it is finally here. It’s difficult to know what to wear when calendars show that fall has begun, fashion etiquette tells you not to wear white after Labor Day and public pools have closed, the temperature outside tells you to wear additional outer coverage and you have not pulled your winter clothes out of the attic.

Besides the weather, some of my favorite things about October (in no particular order) are SEC football, outdoor walks with my husband and my black lab Hunter, leaves changing colors, jackets, apple pie and Halloween - for the candy, decorations and trick-or-treaters at my door.

This month, in addition to our fashion and culinary features, we have added an addition to the magazine, VIP Pets. We have met some great new friends including Jasmine from Delphinium and Hugo Boss from Muse. We also had the pleasure of getting to know Chip Brown and Red from Brown Dog Lodge. We hope that you all will enjoy our new feature and this month’s issue as much as we are!
