Elite Event: New Year, New You! at 5two3

What a way to welcome 2016! This events has given me a lot of inspiration for a lot of fun but healthy choices for his coming year on a «New Year, New You journey»
Starting with the samples… There was champagne and power crunch bars (yum! It’s like candy… but maybe I should have checked the sugar content? Maybe it is haha)… The chips sample from simply7 were yummy tho! I literally just finished eating my second bag today… It’s a great after school snack with lots of flavor def less guilt! Kaleidoscope was there to give out free juice samples which was refreshing… I tried the watermelon lime mmmhmmm! (I actually won a free juice! Yay! Thanks guys!!!)
Ohana salon was there to talk about new hair looks and definitely got me considering rejuvinating my locks! There was a pretty sweet $ 20 coupon! Yas!
And awesome Ms. carly G was taking fun photos and giving tips for bomb profile pics :)
There was also a DJ which made me wanna dance… Which I didn’t… Maybe just a tiny little bit ;)
And of course… 5two3 was a great venue and shop… The owners story was pretty awesome! Walking around, I saw that they had high quality clothing pieces in a very fun 70s type vibe… I love the flowy offshoulder look! They were so generous to offer Unilocalers 30% off that night!
This was a great event! Thank you Hailey!

I had no doubt this event was going to be very fun, but didn’t know what to expect from the boutique. I had looked into the history of the ladies who own the shop and started 5two3 and was inspired by their story. The clothes were beautiful. Beautiful! And the fabric they use. So soft! I wanted to buy so many things, but alas, I had to behave myself.
Hailey, our lovely Unilocal Phoenix hostess, was awesome to greet myself and BFF when we arrived at the event and was ready to hand us a cup of wine or champagne. Check in schwag: Unilocal chapstick, which I’ve already used. Sweeeeeet.
The owners of the shop were very friendly and answered all my silly questions about their business, growth, clothes, and even allowed me to network my business a little with them. The shop is very boutique-​couture-​like and they really have it decorated nicely.
Eliters and even our +1’s were offered 30% off and I just wanted every piece for my closet!
I don’t live close by, but come to Fashion Square area often so I will have to stop in again and do some more shopping! I’ve already spread the word amongst friends as well. Congratulations to the 5two3 ladies, and thank you Unilocal Phoenix!

I had such blast at the 5two3 Event! The Unilocal Phoenix crew kicked off the year by introducing us to the cutest locally owned boutique.
I enjoyed looking through their clothing. The pieces were beautiful and I would love to have every piece in my wardrobe. Elites and our plus ones were even offered 30% during the event!
There was an endless amount of tasty salads, crudités, healthy snacks and beverages.
Kaleidoscope Juice gave out samples of their product. All the juices were super tasty. My favorite was the charcoal lime juice. It was explained that charcoal does not get absorbed into the blood stream, but it soaks up and rods the body of toxins and impurities. I found a new fave!
I’m totally loving the fact that, apart from the raffles, we get a chance to win prizes off the the Instagram posts we put up during the event.
It was my plus one’s first time at an Elite event and I know she had a blast as well. Looking forward the 2016 and all the fun to come!

It’s great to be able to get to know a local business. This is what Unilocal is all about. There were a lot of new faces at this event plus some familiar ones– the best familiar face I saw was of course Gabi herself. It was great to chat with her a bit since this event was a smaller, intimate event.
I also had the chance to meet Don B., another long time Unilocaler, Portland CM & now regional manager. And our new CM Hailey.
Both of them had the great personalities that seem to be a prerequisite to be part of the Unilocal community crew!
There were healthy bites and samples from Kaleidoscope juice, we were able to browse the store with a 30% off enticement.
There was a photographer on site to take photos and to take new profile pics for us.
Overall, a very enjoyable evening. And loved the clothes– fashion forward and comfy!!!

Killing 2 birds with one stone they say eh? I think this event did just that! They made us, or me for sure, feel pretty cool, all the while putting together an awesome fashion inspired event!
Check in swag: Chap stick! Never know when you might need it ;) I need it all the time!
Included in this event were: fabrics of fashion here at 5two3 (holding up a peace sign), some bubbly, PowerCrunch goods, Kaleidoscope pressed juices and delicious sweets, snacks and salads, salon experts, and even sweet beats with an in house DJ.
It was great to see fellow Unilocalers and others at this event! Bonus round was the raffle part! I won! Check out the pic to find out what was in the goodie bag!
Thank you for this special package event Unilocal team! :)

What a fun event! It was such a neat experience to discover the most heavenly feeling clothing known to man. Hailey killed this event, as she normally does. There was wine and delicious healthy snacks (including Kaleidoscope juices) and the DJ was great. I brought along my workout fiend friend Stephanie S. And she was pleasantly surprised by the material a lot of the clothes were made out of. The 70’s theme of the cleaning was weaved throughout the entire line. Also, I’m entirely too obsessed with the wafer bars that I tried for the first time here! My boyfriend actually stole the two that were in my swag bag, they were that good!
I will definitely be back to pick something up. I was discussing with one of the owners, Brittany, that I didn’t think I could pull off some high waist stuff, but that I would definitely try with her help!
New Year, New You was a blast! Was lovely seeing everyone!

Fun event with lots to offer! We had the privilege of being able to shop at a locally owned boutique for 30% off, the clothing was very fashion forward and it was fun to check out all of the amazing styles they had to offer. I was happy to see some healthy bites after all of that holiday bingeing. Kaleidoscope juice was so delicious, I loved the pineapple juice and tuna tacos. (Tip: the pineapple juice goes great with champagne ;-)) I will definitely stop by to have both of those again, they were so good and healthy too! I also had a great time learning about the new hair trends, along with the opportunity to get a much needed new profile pic. Thanks to Hailey, Gabi, Erica and Unilocal for a wonderful night!

Two words: Pretty Power. What more could you ask for than a room full of beauties sipping on bubbly enjoying the benefits of being a woman? DJ set the tone for a fun night and enough goodies to nibble and grab, my particular fave the Power Crunch cookies’n’cream bar. It was a bit of a challenge to graze on my food and check out the fashion, but I noticed several ladies finding something to suit their taste. The fashion is adorbs mixing comfort with style, although I didn’t find anything in my size. All the vendors were also friendly and offered great deals; my friend ended up setting a hair appointment. Due to spacing, there was little seating and mobility and hard to chat up with my fellow Unilocalers. Hailey did such a fantastic job organizing this event, but never doubted less. Look forward to more events!

This was yet another great Elite event. I am constantly amazed at how much Hailey gets together for us in one place! Not only did we get to check out the trendy, locale-​made clothes at 5two3, but we also got to try Kaleidoscope juices and meet two of the ladies from Ohana as well as get our pictures taken for our profiles.
We learned all about how Karah and Brittany started their sweet boutique. I love that both of them rocked in the clothes they were wearing from the shop. The dressing room could have been a revolving door (not see-​through ;) with so many elites slipping in and out for a look in the stylish clothes.
The food — of course the spread was amazing with some sort of BBQ crisp and another — I wasn’t sure if it was lentil or not but they were great. There was an amazing tuna salad — mayo free with a perfect balance citrus, green onion, and grapes topped with diced tomatoes and avocado served over butter lettuce. All the juices were there from Kaliedoscope as well for tasting. So delicious with unique and cleansing blends — all natural and organic too!
There was wine and champagne too!
And last but not least — oh the deals brought by the gals from Ohana! Lots of coupons (if you like getting top-​notch serve at not the prices!) and information there. These ladies showcased some of the salons work in So Scottsdale magazine where they do the hair and makeup. While I would have loved a bit more formal beauty advice from them, they did share with me how much training and more goes into all of the stylists at Ohana. I am very impressed and can’t wait to see them again soon for one of their treatments!

I already knew 5two3 was an amazing clothing brand, but this event just confirmed that everything they touch is gold! I absolutely loved hearing from Brittany and Karah about their vision, mission, and design process. The shop atmosphere is trendy with very positive vibes. :)
Where do I even start with all of the elements of the night? From the amazing food and juices provided by Kaleidoscope (seriously I could NOT stay away from that hummus!!), to the healthy snacks from Power Crunch and Simply 7, to the hair inspiration and specials provided by Ohana Salon & Spa, to the beautiful photography by Carly G, to great tunes from the DJ, to raffles and swag handouts… What wasn’t to love?!?
Thank you SO much for Hailey for organizing the whole event and making a point to mingle with everyone in the room. Not an easy task! You were a great emcee, and we appreciate everything you did to make this event so special!

I loved this event. It was so much fun. The snacks and healthy bites were amazing. I’ve been a fan of Kaleidoscope Juice for a few years. Hailey and Erica welcomed us with drinks, we had a choice of red, white or sparkling wine. Kaleidoscope had a healthy spread for us, tuna salad cups, a salad, hummus and chips and an array of delicious dessert cookies and bars, besides their wonderful organic juices, my favorite is still Green Dragon. Ohana Salon was there to show the latest trends in hair and offer us some deals. I took advantage of it and made an appointment. Brittany and Karah own the store and talked to us about their thought process for their designs. I ended up buying a wrap dress, the fabric is sooooo soft. They had a DJ spinning nice tunes. I always have fun shopping, but this was even more fun, shopping and partying at the same time, can’t be beat. Thank you Hailey and the whole crew who put this event together, I think everybody had a great time.

Can I just say that it really is Neat To Be Elite?!
This «New Year, New You» fashion boutique event was smooth from start to finish. We walked in greeted by our favorite CMs which is always a delight! The walls were lined with wine and champagne and healthy bars and snacks made by Power Crunch, Simply 7, as well as tuna salad bites, spinach salad, pastry samples and cold pressed juice from Kaleidoscope! Such a treat, but GUILT-​FREE foods! The best!
We were enlightened about the boutique by owners Karah and Brittany and we could just see the passion they have for what they do! They strive to design clothes based on what they see on Pinterest and they are inspired by the 70s! They make versatile pieces that you can dress both up or down casually. Their work is truly a motivation. So nice to see these small businesses fulfill their dreams.
One awesome thing that this event provided was Profile photos by the photographer! I was inspired to try on 5Two3’s beautiful clothes and pose for the camera! So much fun!
The store in itself is so inviting that we spent the entire 2 hours there mingling with our +1s and other Unilocalers. What a wonderful way to kick off the 2016 Elite Year! THANK YOU MUCH Hailey, Gabi, Erica, 5Two3 and everyone involved for an amazing night!
