When it comes to the Austin fashion scene, Cheryl Bemis has probably seen it and written about it. With Austin growing so fast, there has been a lot of fashion news to share even when she was told years ago there wasn’t any fashion to cover.
Cheryl became Austin’s first television fashion reporter in 1999 when the new 24-hour news station News 8 Austin came to town. She hosted and produced her weekly fashion segment which featured runway shows, events, designers, and more. The segment was on the air for more than five years and received a “Best of” Award from the Austin Chronicle.
Her reporting has not only taken her to the end of the runways with her team in Austin but also at New York Fashion Week for seventeen seasons and Paris Fashion Week.
Other fashion accolades include hosting and producing a national fashion video for Men’s Wearhouse, receiving an Austin Fashion Trailblazer award, and producing a radio fashion event segment.
Cheryl’s passion for helping the Austin fashion industry using her online fashion site is still as strong as it was when she launched it in 2009. With a recent break from reporting due to her father’s illness and ultimate passing, she is ready to take on all the fashion news that Austin delivers.
Other interests include getting up to capture sunrise wildlife in Colorado, perfecting gluten free desserts, showing her Papillon Jax in fashionable outfits and sweating it out on the picklelball court.
