Happy and hip if not exactly hippie at W3LL

Bridges on the Park has discovered the secret already employed by merchants along South Congress, West Sixth, Upper Guadalupe and Second Street. Give open-house parties at the same time. That way, revelers and potential customers can make processional visits to each shop.

The whole time I spent at W3LL’s Hippie Party on Saturday, I was fielding reports from other parties in the South Lamar Boulevard complex. Once again, the natural skin-care gurus attracted a spectacularly attractive crowd. Only problem, I’d photographed many if not most of them before.

So, after chatting with hip but un-hippie stylistas Jeff Kirk, Esti Choi, Christopher Carbone, Chris Cantoya, Josh Allen, David Morris Parson, Zion Francis, Marques Harper, James Walker, Shirley Pinkson and more over pomegranate martinis, and checking out the scrubs, scents and creams, I snapped some of the folks I didn’t already know.
