THE SCOOP
Puttin’ on the Ritz
Ritz Theater’s Holiday Bazaar kicks off the shopping season
You said it last year, now it’s time to follow through: you will not be shopping at midnight on December 23, dodging half-crazed shoppers and carrying eight bags full of Big Mouth Billy Bass singing fish. Begin shopping—now!—at the Ritz. Loosen purse strings with a cocktail and take in a fashion show featuring local consignment boutiques. Afterward, browse fashion and beauty gifts. Just look at the stress and money you’ve saved. That’s a gift in itself. Oct. 22, $24-$27. Ritz Theater, 345 13th Ave. NE, Mpls., 612-623-7660, ritzdolls.com
Cozy Cashmere
Hazel & Haverly mixes vintage craft and modern style
Crochet designer Kedrin Likness has a knack for using her vintage craft to make modern wares. Under her premiere line, Attagirl by Kedrin, she whips up cool, casual, cold-weather accessories. Her new line, Hazel & Haverly (the first and last name of her two grandmothers), is decidedly more up-market, made from a custom-dyed cashmere blend. The collection, inspired in part by Black Swan, is elegant, sexy, and practical—a delightful list of adjectives for fashion. Don’t miss the Birgitta legwarmers and Serine skirt/caplet. etsy.com/shop/hazelandhaverly
