CR Laine Hosts Style Spotter Party

One of the most attractive showrooms at the High Point October 2012 Market 

was the C.R. Laine Showroom

My "Style Spotter" Pick from C.R. Laine Showroom

I will be covering the showroom more in depth

 next week but wanted to share this special event with you today!

A highlight of my trip to the High Point Market was the cocktail party hosted in the C.R. Laine showroom for the Olioboard/High Point Market "Style Spotter" finalist . I was so honored to be a finalist in the contest, but to be treated so royally was a treat in itself!  Thank you to Holly McLay Blalock, designer for C.R. Laine, for the beautiful job she did organizing the event.  It was fun to meet the participates from the contest in person. Thanks also goes to Currey & Co for graciously providing the party with french champagne!     

 Welcome by Cheminne Taylor-Smith, VP of Marketing for the High Point Market and Holly McLay Blalock of C.R. Laine
