 Dressing for events can be a bit tricky, especially in Denver where you’ll encounter looks ranging from a Northface and sneakers to designer dresses and stilettos.  In my opinion, overdressing is a style trend, while under dressing is a style faux pas.  So, when in doubt, get those heels out, and let me do the shopping for you.  Stacy McElhany, owner of Violet boutique, and her mom Sandy were kind enough to let me play dress-up and put together some incredible looks for the upcoming events:  Cirque du Soleil’s Kooza and Wicked.
