In a sophisticated, deep red velvet Sherri Hill dress from Lasting Impressions, the lovely Nicole Paige Brooks and Baileigh struck a pose for the cameras at the Rubbing Noses fashion benefit. The annual event, which raised 16K for Pets Are Loving Support, PALS, offered an action filled Sunday afternoon of cocktails, runway show, performances and auction items.

Rubbing Noses has a rich history for PALS, experiencing its share of ups and downs. Four years ago, PALS director Kevin Bryant and I took over the production and partnered with the amazing Lambert Place to re-invent Noses into a fun fashion afternoon for everyone.

Partnering retailers Boy Next Door and Lasting Impressions have supported us through these years and have been incredible assets to the production. The models, all who have donated their time, have been champions on the runway as our doggies sometimes get a little shy. This year, Noses added a new twist to the event, performances by Nicole Paige Brooks and Jasmine Antionette. Fabulous!

Puppy love all the way!

Jack's pink mohawk was a show-stopper! As was Bubba D. Licicous.

Lucky dog! BTW, this is Foster, the most adorable doggie. He is a three-legged Pomeranian (after being hit by a car!) But he is all love, as you can see, and is absolutely precious. And adoptable!

Double the pleasure.
