N꩜tes ꩜n: “observing connection at Sip & Style.”
-
An event hosted by Positive Phee, with a “fill a bag” dynamic.
You pay a solid fee to access of racks and racks of curated & quality checked clothing that you can choose from. Includes a drink!
I recently collaborated with Sophie on her latest edition of Sip & Style. It took weeks, (probably months) of preparation. Being part of the creative process for this event has been inspiring, and I write this to document the people that make this space possible and so special.
I approached some of the guests with the intention of getting to know them. The regulars, the first-timers.
I learned who they were and why they keep coming back.
Their answers were all connected by ideas of community, encouragement, freedom of expression, and shared love for the host, Sophie, and her mission.
Guest quotes:
“I feel safe and motivated to try something new.”
“Pretty much nothing is off limits.”
“ I love diversity of styles, its so easy finding something for yourself or a friend.”
“I always leave the event with pieces that I normally wouldn’t have picked out myself!”
“I don’t like shopping. And This is my third Sip & Style.”
