FOR THE FIRST time, the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Houston hosted a seasonal fashion show and fundraiser at Tootsies — and it was a holiday hit!


Nearly 150 stylish guests hit the high-end boutique for festive fashion inspo, DJ tunes, a photo booth, pics with Santa, and makeup artistry by Trish McEvoy cosmetics. Creative cocktails courtesy of Bosscat Kitchen and Libations — plus plenty of wine — warmed up the crowd from the inside out, and BGCGH "Junior Youth of the Year" Brielle gave remarks about how the organization has transformed her life.

In addition to ticket sales and a portion of proceeds from Tootsies purchases, the nonprofit benefited from the sale of raffle tickets for three different prize bundles.

Open Dance Project presents 'Flutter' at HBG

WHILE IT CERTAINLY doesn’t feel like fall, the calendar says it is, and so long as they’re not put off by weird weather and a summer hangover of heat and humidity, we can soon expect a whole lot of monarch butterflies to pass through Texas during their 3,000-mile southern migration. To pay tribute to this annual phenomenon, on Saturday, Sept. 30 and Sunday, Oct. 1, from 4-7pm, Houston Botanic Garden and Open Dance Project will present Flutter: The Monarch Butterfly Project.
