Join Chela on this week’s “Tu for Two” for her experience at “High Heels and Hard Hats Fashion Show,” the annual local fashion show that highlights local celebrities strutting down the runway in a wild event that supports efforts to improve our community!

High Heels and Hard Hats Fashion Show is hosted by the Habitat for Humanity, and raises funds to build “strength, stability and self-reliance through affordable housing.” This year was the third annual iteration, and also the third year to completely sell out! Chela didn’t just attend the show, either — she was a part of it! Sporting an ensemble including a navy lace top by Burning Torch, white jeans by Parker Smith Jean and completed with a perfectly coiffed hairstyle from Mina’s, she joined some of Chapel Hill’s other stars to support the work that Habitat does in Orange County! Listen below for her full experience, and check back soon for the next “Tu for Two!”

 

“Tu for Two” is a recurring series presented by the Ackland Art Museum that chronicles the bi-weekly adventures of WCHL’s Chela Tu as she explores some of the lesser-known gems around town. Join Chela on Mondays as she ventures out into Orange County and beyond to find the most delicious food, the most amazing activities and experiences new things with some of the most interesting people!
