Prism Boutique: Summer Soiree

You'll constantly hear us talking about how staying immersed in anything artistic and expressive helps us better understand culture and fashion.

This includes event attendance, such as concerts, festivals, trade shows, etc. So naturally, when we heard industry innovator Prism Boutique was holding a Summer Soiree, our team hit the streets to Long Beach.

Along with the trendiest clothes and accessories, they also had some special guests.

Guests were able to shop essentials oils with Little Shop of Oils, 

enjoy Henna with Jenny of Sacred Roots Holistic Healing, and 

mini Tarot Readings with Kristi of Ritual Tarot.

Guests could also sip fruit-infused mimosas and cold-pressed juice 

by Rainbow Juices & 

browse fresh floral bouquets from Meredith Ambruso.
