The Baltimore Love Project Capsule Collection—52 pieces of men’s tees and women’s tanks—will be released on Thursday, November 13, exclusively at lululemon’s Harbor East location.

“The imagery has that same kind of feel as the murals,” Owen says in reference to the tees and tanks. “There’s a real gritty quality to them in a lot of ways, but they’re more Baltimore-centric than the “LOVE” image itself, which is pretty universal.”

Although part of the national brand, each lululemon store is known for supporting and collaborating with its local community on various area-specific projects and events. 

“I look at this as an opportunity to connect personally with a cool brand that was interested in doing something along the lines of the Love Project,” Owen says. “I’m pretty excited to see what the public response is.”

Stop by lululemon, Harbor East from 7:30 to 9 p.m., where you can shop the collection, meet artist Michael Owen, and enjoy hors d’oeuvres from Teavolve.

The night will focus on the blog’s most recent cover story, “Creatively Cool”—a series shot by photographer (and Baltimore magazine contributor) Jonathan Hanson, giving us a peek into the lives of 11 locals, who are all well-known and emerging in their respective creative fields. 

“It’s a Q&A piece, but it’s definitely a more visual piece,” Obineme tells us. “It’s the concept of selecting some awesome and unique individuals who live in Charm City, and embracing their style. Style can define a lot of things—not necessarily fashion, but they were able to bring in their own clothing, accessories, etc., and we styled them with what they had.”

RSVP to strangerswithstyle@gmail.com, put on your best cocktail attire, and check it out for yourself. And don’t be late—the first 30 attendees will go home with a goody bag provided by SWS. You’ll also be able to shop some emerging vendors and enter for the chance to win some special giveaways provided by many of our local faves like Brightside Boutique & Art Studio, Babe, Christopher Schafer Clothier, Scrub Nail Boutique, Oyin Handmade, K Staton, Sixteen Tons, Double Dutch Boutique, and more, all while enjoying Dooby’s complimentary treats and Happy Hour specials.

This event is free and open to the public.

And be sure to check out SWS’ Facebook page to see what’s in store—from new contributing bloggers, to SWS.tv, which will provide video content for the site, to a new e-commerce space featuring unique local vendors.
