METEOR SHOWERS: Well, the Perseids are back and they've brought their cosmic trash with them to dump in the fire barrel that is our atmosphere. This morning and tomorrow morning is supposed to be prime-viewing-time, but if you miss it, there's more where that came from the next few days. Look for clear skies to the east (always with the negative waves, CHS?), stay up late, and maybe make a run out to Camano Island, Rattlesnake Ridge, Tiger Mountain, or Snoqualmie Pass, where light pollution won't get in your eyes. Failing that, it's on YouTube.

FASHION HIGHLIGHTS: Seattle Central Community College's Apparel Design program will be featuring their final line and portfolio show, The Shape of Things, throughout the day at the SCCC campus. The show will also include work by students Becky Sullivan and Maria E. Canada, both of whom had recent big wins in the Seattle fashion world. Canada took second place at the 2009 Project Red Dress fashion show, and Sullivan took home first place for both the Seattle Fashion Week Design Competition and the Seamless in Seattle Best Everyday Collection. We definitely recommend checking out Sullivan's collection, as there are some excellent pieces--we have no doubt that we'll be hearing more about her in the future. 9 a.m.-6 p.m. // 1701 Broadway Room BE 1110, SCCC campus // FREE

Seattlest is broadening our horizons--to the runways. Not Boeing, couture. Yes, we're taking a good long look at Seattle's fashion community. No, we do have one. Srsly. And Cameron Levin is going to write about the goings-on for us. Here's her inaugural post, which as it happens is about one of the more unusual fashion events in Seattle.

The Second Annual Value Village Fashion Show is pouring a 50-gallon drum of gasoline on the fires of costumery this weekend, so don't think that you're finished with dress-up for the season after you trudge home commando in your gorilla suit Sunday morning. You still have to get to the Rendezvous Sunday evening for this show.
