Leather & Laces introduces the “Vampires & Vixens Ball”, a one-night-only special event held in Houston on Saturday, October 28. Hosted by actress and model, Charlotte McKinney, known for her roles on “Dancing with the Stars”, “Baywatch” and the upcoming “Flatliners”, the party will feature an award-winning haunted house, live performers and creepy clowns, with a celebrity DJ on site to keep the LED dancefloor pumping.

The event will be held from 9:00 p.m. – 2:00 a.m. at industrial-chic Silver Street Studios located just seven minutes from the heart of downtown Houston. Guests can channel their devilish side in the 20,000 square-foot space which will be fully decked out with scary decor. All-inclusive tickets start at $135 and a costume contest will be judged by local media personalities who will award various prizes for the best costumes in the house.

Leadership in Action: ‘Family, Community and Spiritual Connection’ Drives Success for Henry Richardson

Leadership in Action: ‘Family, Community and Spiritual Connection’ Drives Success for Henry Richardson

How did you get to where you are today? The present moment is a combined history of my family, my time as an athlete, my passion for learning, and my desire to see the world be better. I grew up as a successful springboard and platform diver, however, an injury caused me to seek alternative treatments to heal my body. In that process, I discovered the power of yoga, exercise, meditation, mindset, and nutrition. This holistic approach eventually led me to open a Pilates and cycling studio called DEFINE body & mind. I opened studios around the nation, and after selling most of my business between 2017-2019, I was ready to explore how I could make an even greater impact on the wellbeing of our community. In 2023, I started actively working on a brand new multi-family/apartment concept called, Define Living. The idea focused on offering health and wellness services within a beautiful apartment setting to increase the wellbeing of our residents. Having a strong sense of community is the number one factor in living a happy life, so why not build a community where daily fitness, cooking classes, and social connection are the norm? We opened Define Living in March of 2024, and we couldn’t be happier with how things are being received. We are already looking at building more concepts like this in the Houston area and beyond.
