The owners of Taj Salon and Spa will be hosting a fashion show. They’ll be using about 75% of Cayetano Jewelry styles, including the Cassandra in their show. The show will take place on Friday, June 12, 2009 in the courtyard outside of their salon in Brooklyn Park, MN. The main focus of the show will be to showcase hair and makeup capabilities of their staff of course but clothing will be basic so the focal point of the fashion portion will really be the Designs by K Cayetano jewelry. Proceeds from tickets for this event will go to Community Emergency Assistance Program (CEAP). CEAP is a community based non-profit organization that provides emergency supports and facilitates personal skill buiding and self-sufficiency while enhancing self-esteem.
