Here she is, Miss America.
Or at least she will be on Friday. Wisconsin native and Miss America 2012 Laura Kaeppeler will come to Mayfair in Wauwatosa for a Homecoming Fashion Show.
Kaeppeler and some of her fellow contestants will be modeling fashions by corporate sponsor Express in the mall center court at 6 p.m. The fashion show is free and open to the public.
She was crowned in January and received a $50,000 college scholarship she plans to use to pursue a career in childhood advocacy law.
She grew up in Kenosha and attended Carthage College, where she received a number of scholastic and music accolades, making her a positive role model, said Brenda Vento, mall marketing manager.
