Riverfront Park Fashion Show Series Denver,CO

Living in the western United States, we usually are not fortunate enough to experience high end fashion shows. Well for the past 3 months, Denver has hosted a series of fashion shows at the exclusive Riverfront Park neighborhood in downtown . The show has featured designers such as Betsey Johnson and Robert Rodriguez. The show also features different cuisine's,drinks, and salons. I had the opportunity to speak with Laura Anderson, a marketing director for various well known brands in the hospitality sector who was enjoying the show.

Joey: Thank you for speaking with me after this amazing fashion show
Laura: Your welcome, and thank you to The Men's Fashion Blog.
Joey: How does marketing help a brand?
Laura: Marketing has alot of potential to make a unknown label into something huge. For Example, many people do not know about Robert Rodriguez, and marketing his line here at Riverfront is a great way to reach a new target audience.
Joey: What was one of the best features here at Riverfront?
Laura: The variety of entertainement. You have fashion, food, and great people to look at.
Joey: Is there a color that is in right now for men's fashion?
Laura: Definitely purple. Purple on a man is sexy and sleek.
Joey: Laura thank you for your time and enjoy the after party!
Laura: Thank you.

Grilling Basics Made Easy

Grilling is an easy way to cook, and it turns out in wonderful flavors and appearances that are only possible when foods are exposed to the heat of an outdoor grill.
 
prepare in the morning  On days that you plan to use the grill for dinner, check supplies and get the grill set up and ready to use. You will have less to do when it's time to fire it up and cook.
 
clean the rack  Use a wire grilling brush with a scraping tool to clean the grill rack. Make sure to clean it twice. You never want to taste what was left on the grill the last time you cooked. When desperate measure calls and your tool is M.I.A., you can use an onion. Just cut the onion in half and use the open side face down. Before you begin cooking remove any accumulated debris. For future use after cooking while the rack is still hot, clean the grill again. Just before putting the food on grasp a wadded-up paper towel with tongs, dip it into some vegetable or olive oil, and use it to lightly oil the grill rack.
 
avoid flare-ups  Flare-ups, which occur hen the fat drips from the food onto the fire, can give food and unpleasant taste and appearance. If they occur, move the food to a cooler area on the grill, and be sure the grill is tightly covered.
 
give it a rest  Allow grilled foods to sit briefly before serving. This gives the juices time to redistribute themselves throughout the food, producing a more evenly moist result.
