Project Yelpway

Real People, Real Reviews, Real Fashion….

On January 10th the Yelp Elite Squad kicked off 2008 with the Yelp Fashion Show at Newberry Library. While the models were getting their hair and makeup done by Blo Salon and Day Spa, 300 yelpers devoured tasty hors d’oeuvres, compliments of Simply Elegant Catering, and wine from Night Harvest.  In the house we had the lovely Caroline A, the fabulous Jennifer L, and Brandon B making an appearance at his first elite event!

And then it was show time! Who needs real models when you’ve got 10 volunteers from Chicago Yelp Elite Squad? Misse D started the show by strutting her yelpiness down the runway in an adorable blue dress from SHE Boutique and the other Yelp models weren’t far behind, including Stacey A looking pretty sassy in a black dress from Pivot Boutique and the slick Vamsi V in a jacket and jeans from The Denim Lounge. And our very own Yelp Queen, Andy F, brought up the rear in a custom made shirt from Strange Cargo. The audience, including Rocky B and new elite Crister C, yelped with delight as they cheered on their fellow yelpers.

Other highlights include birthday gal, Michelle R, winning free training sessions with personal trainer, Rob L, who was nice to flex his muscles on stage for us. To  view pictures of the event, click here.

There’s more fun in store for 2008 so keep checking the Yelp Elite calendar.

Until then, we’ll SYOY!
