Things heated up during South Walton Fashion Week when Willow Boutique hosted a rooftop party and presentation dubbed “Willow Loves Fashion” at The Pearl Rosemary Beach. Key elements come together to create a fabulous party, and, in this case, it was a combination of the uber-chic setting with its black and white color palette, Instagram-worthy big LOVE balls perched on the deck, gorgeous Mignonne Gavigan necklaces on display, statuesque models posing in Willow’s latest fall styles and a fashion crowd gathered to lounge in cabanas, sip custom beverages from the mimosa bar, hop into the #willowlovesfashion photo booth and chat about what to wear that night. Pops of yellow stood out against the black and white backdrop while sweet treats included a donut bar and candy bar. Tongue-in-cheek notes were sprinkled throughout with phrases like “Where’s my cabana boy?” and “Insta made me do it.” Scroll down to see who we spotted and be sure to chime in when you find that cabana boy….
