Los Angeles Fashion Night Out 2010: 9/10/10

After the success of last year's Fashion's Night Out in NYC, FNO has expanded to cities across the U.S., and that includes our own batch of festivities out here in L.A.! Fashion's Night Out is an event dedicated to supporting retailers and the like. Basically, it's the fashion industry's response to the recession and downward trend of spending. So get out there, sip some champagne, munch on some cupcakes and cold cuts, and spend your hard earned money so we can dig ourselves out of this hole.

Racked LA has arranged an awesome list that encompasses some great spots (although not comprehensive) to hit up on Friday night. This includes events from Newport Beach to Pasadena to L.A. and beyond.

Some interesting events to note:

• Beverly Center: Free parking after 4pm, Will.I.Am and Lisa Love (of Teen Vogue) hosting
• Rodeo Drive: Giant ferris wheel, free manicures at Chanel (!)
• Phillip Lim: Sadly, Lim himself won't be there, but an open bar will. Open bar? Oh, I can't say no.
• The Grove: Big 'ole party with an appearance from Fergie at Nordies, where she will be supporting her shoe line, Fergie.
  
• Santa Monica Place / Century City Mall: Justin Timberlake and best friend and business partner, Trace Ayala will be there to support their denim brand, William Rast. JT & co will be at SaMo from 6-7, Century City from 8-9.
• One Colorado (Pasadena): Closer to my neck of the woods! Finger foods and a fashion show in old town.
  
• Fashion Island (Newport Beach): Lo Bosworth (of The Hills) will be on hand to give styling tips and support her new book, The Lo Down.
• More information on event times at Racked LA and the L.A. Fashion's Night Out's official page.
  

At this point for me, I think it's between Phillip Lim's open bar at his namesake store, or the festivities at One Colorado. I'll probably end up at One Colorado, considering I'm such a lazy bugger and I don't want to drive all the way into L.A.

What about everyone else? Who's headed to FNO?
