A Teetotaler at the Stoli Hotel

I had the fortune of going to an event here in Chicago called the Stoli Hotel.  It was a promotion from Stoli (the vodka maker) to get people to drink their alcohol.  My was it an experience--and I don´t even drink alcohol.  It was amazing.  The warehouse was set up like a hotel. There were four rooms a blue room (Stoli blueberry), an orange room (Stoli orange), a cream colored room (Stoli vanilla), and a red room (Stoli raspberry).  There was the Stoli Spa where they gave complimentary massages, facials and manicures.  There was even a section for Club Stoli--where they played this ultra fast techno music that was a bit too much for me.

Anyway, I felt like a VIP.  So I tried to look like one.  I wore my "vacation in the Hamptons" seersucker outfit, designed (and made) by Michael Knight while he was on the third season of Project Runway (it was the outfit he wore for the "Jet Set" episode).  But my hair was a mess, so I crocheted this hat from Afya Ibomu´s "Get Your Crochet On!".  Its the Lively Up with a bib.  For the crown of the hat I double stranded Red Heart Super Saver Color: Earth & Sky.  For the brim and bib, I double stranded Red Heart Super Saver Color: Espresso with Caron´s One Pound Color: Nutmeg.  The combination I think was off the chain.  Hope that you enjoy the pictures.
