Fab Friday, Sunny-Style

You can always count on Leah for a good story:

"Yesterday was an epic day!!!!!

"Started out great...my friend and her gf came to town from British Columbia and stayed the night. So of course I walked them to the mega bus and donned them with some Leah Creation earrings.

"I had to go to Jewelers Row to pick up an amazing wedding band I made from my polisher. My client was thrilled! 

"It's Always Sunny was filming on Samson Street, J-Row (my second neighborhood)... Before I left the house I grabbed a pair in case I bumped into "Sweet Dee" Kaitlin Olsen. 

"They were the perfect pair. 4th and Bway label Summer Girls from Dino. She loved the earrings, me, my sense of humor and my tattoo! She said "I want to wear them now!" 

"As the crew was leading her to her next shot I said as we were parting, "Is that what it's like to be a celebrity cause i'm just a Philebrity" That got a chuckle!"

Speaking of "sunny", don't forget you can catch Leah and her Vintage Vinyl line at Clark Park's Summer Solstice festival tomorrow from noon 'til sundown! 

Leah had some video requests for this post, starting with a clip of Sweet Dee herself...Leah also wanted Dino's Summer Girls, but an online search turned up nothing but his better known hit "I Like It", and those homemade videos that fans post.  Still, a YouTube oddity is always fun for a laugh, so scroll down and enjoy!

Clark Park Summer Solstice

Come join Leah at Clark Park this Saturday, June 25th for their Summer Solstice festival!  The event features live music and performances, food, children's entertainment and arts and crafts vendors.  


See the event's Facebook page or their blog for all the details.  The park alone is reason to get outdoors and enjoy summer, it's one of the nicest green spots in Philly.  


The solstice is actually today; for the next six months the days will be getting shorter, so soak up that sun while you can!  


Unfortunately in Philly right now, grey skies are blocking those rays and thunderstorms are in the forecast.  Leah requested a special, summery playlist (from her own collection!) to brighten everyone's day, and chase those storm clouds away:

Ling Forward!

Leah had a great day at Lingfest last weekend!  There was a huge turnout for Philadelphia Flea Markets, and plenty of people mingled in the center of Jefferson Square where Lingfest was held.  It was a great success for Girls Rock Philly!  We hear the party afterwards was a lot of fun, too!


Leah is looking forward to a summer of more fun (and successful shows!)...she is taking all of her considerable energy and putting it into her beautiful work, and the awesome people it brings into her life!  Thanks to everyone who helped make Lingfest a success!


Now some overdue video requests, Leah asked for some Mary J. Blige.  Enjoy!

Lingfest!

Tomorrow is the big day: Lingfest, Leah's combination art and design showcase-fundraiser-birthday bash!  


Lingfest kicks off at 10am at Jefferson Square Park in South Philly, in conjunction with Philadelphia Flea Markets' all day outdoor Festival.  

Lingfest will showcase 10 local art vendors (like these here) exhibiting handmade original art in a variety of media, as well as live musicians, food, flea market, raffles and more. Lingfest is free and open to the public!

GreeneHouse Studios, in accordance with our philosophy of encouraging young artists and giving back to the community, will hold a raffle in between music sets from 11:30am- 4pm.

Proceeds from the raffle go towards "Girls Rock Philly", an organization "dedicated to providing girls from the greater Philadelphia region with a positive all-female musical environment" through the sponsorship of local Rock and Roll camps. 

Join the GreeneHouse gang after the big event for drinks and dancing at the 2nd Street Brew House (formally Raw Dogs) in South Philly, starting at 8pm. They offer rotating taps and extensive bottle selection.

The evening closes with Hip-hop and R&B throwbacks from our favorite South Philly twins, Vinyl-Saurus Wrexx!
