Tea Time with ZILA!
Eight stylish gal pals accepted an invite from Lauren Tomlinson and Justin-Paul Williams to Miss T’s Kitchen in St Ann two Fridays ago. The occasion, a ZILA Tea Party, was an ode to local artisans and creatives. Essentially, Tomlinson and Williams want to highlight the hidden gems of each parish. Friday’s journey unearthed the design talents of Ochi-based designer Cheryl Robinson of Polka Dots fashion house along with eco-friendly statement earrings by Aviola Accessories and leather sandals from Jamaica Sandal Company.
All Woman Fashion enjoyed the limo ride and eagerly anticipates the next.
