Style + Grace HERE’S “FASHION” DEFINED. fash·ion /ˈfaSHən/ noun 1. a popular trend, especially in styles of dress and ornament or manners of behavior. Now “style.” style /stīl/ Noun 1. a distinctive appearance, typically determined by the principles according to which something is designed. 2. a manner of doing something. With our annual “fall fashion” issue, we decided to take a different approach, scrapping Vogue’s September issue precedent and using the pillar of style as our inspiration — not fashion.

ROOFTOP REVELRY IN SUPPORT OF BMOCA When Eliza Leach, a private wealth advisor, reformed Manhattanite, first joined the board of directors at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art: BMOCA, she was surprised to see how few young professionals in Boulder County were supporting the arts. "Unlike Denver, New York City, San Francisco, or Chicago, there really aren't many opportunities for young professionals to get involved with the arts and to network with each other," said Leach. She teamed up with fellow board members Lauren Roberts, a local corporate attorney, and Devin Patrick Hughes, a local musical director, and conductor, who had similar aspirations to bring cultural art opportunities to young professionals. Enter Friends With Benefits, a new initiative spearheaded by Leach, Roberts and Hughes to convene professionals from across Boulder in support of BMOCA. Friends With Benefits kicked off their 2018 calendar of events with “A Midsummer’s Night Dream Bash,” an exclusive rooftop cocktail party hosted at Crestone Capital's Pearl West office this summer. Professionals from a variety of industries enjoyed sunset views of the Flatirons, specialty cocktails and watched a live painting by local artist Will Day. Bmoca.org 32

7:35 AM
(CON TI N U ED)
My alarm sounds and I bounce right out of bed toward the view from my room on the 15th floor. I’m at the Ludlow Hotel, a favorite spot in Manhattan’s Lower East Side. I check my email and yesterday’s sales report. The shop had a great day!
8:43 AM
We cruise downstairs to Ludlow Coffee Supply for an iced Almond Milk Latte. My eye catches a woman who I instantly admire. She’s smoking a cigarette and clearly European, so effortlessly chic in a classic, oversized yet pristinely starched white button-down, tied in a dramatic knot that’s brilliantly paired with a banana yellow skirt. I make a mental note: “Yellow is hitting its stride!”
9:00 AM
we arrive at Dry Bar where we wait 30 minutes for a blowout, but it’s absolutely worth the wait. I feel like a new woman with the charming bounce that comes from newly washed tresses!
10:13 AM
With gorgeous hair and an empty stomach, we make a quick stop at Russ & Daughters for a pumpernickel bagel. It's toasted and topped with scallion cream cheese, tomato and wasabi fish row. There’s no time to sit, so we eat it on the go.
10:30 AM
We’re back at the Ludlow for a meeting with folks from NSF Clothing. We chat about Colorado and discover we have mutual friends— so lovely!
11:15 AM
I hail a cab for our next appointment — Il Bisonte, an accessories company from Italy. I can’t wait to get my hands on all that leather!
12:03 PM
We lurk outside the Nanushka fashion show like a groupie for some fabulous people watching.
1:10 PM
We arrive at 180 Store to view two personal favorite brands, Chimala and Lotuff We chose to come on the right day —designers from both brands are on-site, so I engage both in discussions about their design process. My creative canteen is officially full!
2:08 PM
We hit Franklin Street Showroom and discover a new brand: Harlin. Our customers are going to love it!
2:47 PM
My stomach is growling — more like yelling, so we swing by Two Hands, a great little café, for a grain bowl topped with a six minute egg. I sip a glass of rosé.
3:21 PM
We arrive at Black Crane. I always love my meetings here —their space is as comfortable and calm as their clothing.
4:06 PM
We hop a train uptown for a meeting with Amo. We take a shortcut through Union Square and happen upon a farmer’s market where I spot a former employee, Tiff. We laugh and jump and hug wildly amongst beautifully grown radishes.
4:51 PM
It starts to rain, so I throw my jacket over my head in a tent-like formation to protect my ‘do.' I’m running while doing so-ugh! We finally arrive at Mara Hoffman and get right down to business: summer and swim!
5:39 PM
We hop a cab for my last appointment of the day in Bryant Park with Trave Denim.
6:40 PM
We’re on a train that creeps slowly towards my next stop: dinner. I rest my eyes while on the ride.
7:12 PM
We are seated at Uncle Boons where I order crab fried rice and a papaya salad. I enjoy every bite. We toast to a successful day with a tamarind margarita. Totally delicious.
9:30 PM
We arrive back at the hotel, but we don’t go to our room. We stop at the bar for a nightcap and decide to catch up on emails. I check the sales report from the shop. Another great day!
10:34 PM
I slip into bed and call my husband. He reports that all three dogs are happy and well.

INSPIRED BY
THIS FALL, HANNAH MOON OF STYLED BY HANNAH MOON, IS ENCOURAGING YOU TO TRY SOMETHING NEW, AND TO EMBRACE THE TRENDS EMERGING. One big trend she’s been pushing? Animal print. “At all of my appointments this past month every woman has told me, 'Oh no, I don’t do animal print,' but when they trust and experiment a little, and let me show them, they love it.” Moon, who is currently styling the bright and tailored looks you’ve seen on KUSA-Channel 9’s Daily Blast Live, didn’t have a linear path to fashion. Growing up, she was inspired by her mother and grandmother’s “curated” wardrobe, but she resisted the stereotypes associated with going into fashion, and instead went into marketing. A few years, and (of course) a fashion blog later, she found herself being pulled into the industry she initially thought she would avoid. But a lifelong interest in fashion and a knack for mixing patterns and colors like it’s no big deal have brought her full circle. When you scroll through Moon’s Instagram (@styledbyhannahmoon), it’s pretty clear that Moon was destined for a roll in fashion. In picture after picture, she sports bright colors, bold patterns and trends straight off the runway — and she makes it look easy. 50

To update your wardrobe for fall the Hannah Moon way, there are a few rules.
DON’T BE AFRAID OF COLOR OR PATTERNS. “Animal print to me has always been a staple, but for most people, it has been an accessory,” Moon explains. “But all of a sudden in 2018 we're seeing animal print come back as the main piece of your outfit.”

Although after some deep contemplating, and a severe need for tranquility, New York didn’t seem to fit the bill.

Today you know it as a luxury retreat in rarefied air at 8600 ft with small huddles of log cabins surrounded by the San Juan Mountain range and flower painted meadows. Oh — and mineral hot springs. Take your pick with which style of holistic bath, either undeveloped and au naturel right outside your log cabin, or opt for a wooden bath house with a hammock and manmade saunas filled with hot springs...with a view. A wide-open view of an alpine valley with no signs of the concrete jungle left behind. What was once a ghost town is now filled with warmth (pun intended) from the natural springs down to the incredible hospitality. All of your days are taken care of — food, drinks, extra noise — and this welcoming space is still in a sense a ghost town since the hustle and bustle of everyday life is left at the entrance. In this styled shoot featuring Cedar & Hyde Mercantile’s high-quality clothing, envision yourself in each space. The life-worn saloon, daisy-filled meadows and Hungarian-inspired baths invite you into the old west where life — and fashion — had timeless style.

Echoing the deeply meaningful intent and customs of this traditional Mexican holiday, also known as Day of the Dead, Campbell looks to support local organizations that share in this reverence for the promise of a fulfilled life through his own organization’s annual Dia de los Muertos fundraising event. 88
Boulder Lifestyle | October 2018
“Boulder is a wonderful city that deserves the accolades it receives for being a wonderful place to live, work and be,” says Campbell, founder of youth-centric organization All About the Kids. “But it’s also a city like any other with issues such as marginalized children without the support, love and infrastructure they need to fulfill their potential.” On November 3rd, the second annual Dia de los Muertos event hosted by All About the Kids will bring the Boulder community together to support local organizations working to raise awareness and provide resources and support for at-risk Boulder youth. Benefiting Blue Sky Bridge (this year's main beneficiary), the event is made possible by a number of local sponsors whose donations help ensure that every dollar raised goes towards supporting in need Boulder youth. The event will feature food, drinks, dancing and live music from local band The Goonies. It will also include face painting and a costume contest for which wearing your finest Calaca apparel is encouraged. In the spirit of Dia de los Muertos and at the heart of the event, All About the Kids has also partnered with local Latino organizations to create a community altar at which attendees can share photos of loved ones passed, keeping their memories alive, celebrating their lives, and finding comfort in shared loss and experience. “I firmly believe that starting a child’s life in an environment full of love and support greatly increases their potential for success down the road,” says Campbell. “It’s that promise that we’re aiming to support.” For more information on All About the Kids and this year’s Dia de los Muertos event, visit AllAboutTheKidsBoulder.org/#overview.

CREATE YOUR OWN EDEN GARDEN + KNOW THE LIGHT REQUIREMENTS. All plants have their light requirements. Do your due diligence and research the best plants for your backyard environment. + DON’T OVERWATER. If a plant isn’t doing too well, it doesn’t necessarily mean they need more water. Melvin says that Colorado’s compact, clay-rich soil means that drainage is often slow, and you don’t want the roots to sit in a pool of water. + WATER IN THE EARLY MORNING. It’s not just an old wives tale. Watering your lawn early in the morning means less sun and less wind — which means more of the water makes it to the grass. + CREATE AN OUTDOOR LIVING AREA. Creating a seamless fusion between your interior living space and your exterior not only means you’ll use your outdoor space more, but it also means that you’ll be able to take advantage of that Colorado sunshine fully.
