Event Recap: Wendy’s #NewSaladCollection NYC Launch with Model Molly Sims

Published by

Last Wednesday I had the pleasure of attending an exclusive fashion event at a New York City Wendy’s restaurant to kick off the launch of “The New Salad Collection from Wendy’s” campaign – a partnership with fashion site Polyvore and contest judge super model Molly Sims.  It was a night filled with food, fashion and fun! Models were styled in looks  inspired by the bold flavors and vibrant colors of Wendy’s new salads: Asian Cashew Chicken and BBQ Ranch Chicken. “Fashion inspiration can come from anywhere – even your Wendy’s salad,” said Sims. “I love how Wendy’s is rolling out their new salads like a fashion line and can’t wait to see how fashion lovers like me are inspired by them.” Wendy’s and Polyvore are running a contest where you can create your own style board, using Wendy’s salad images and fashions inspired by them. You then tag your board with #NewSaladCollection for a chance to win $1,000, which can be used to stock up on styles you pinned. Cha-ching! At the event they had a huge magnetic Polyvore style board where …

NYFW: Backstage at the Tracy Reese Fall 2014 Runway Show

Published by

I had the pleasure of covering the backstage action before the Tracy Reese Fall 2014 Runway show during New York Fashion Week and it was such a cool experience! These are some of the behind the scenes photos I snapped with make up by Mally Beauty, Hair by Ouidad and nails by Sally Hansen. The hair for the show was to look natural and textured almost  as if you didn’t style it at all. There were 5 different makeup looks with “Exuberant” being my favorite because I loved the gold metallic glitter flakes that were sprinkled on the cheeks. It looked so pretty! I also loved the “Melancholy” look with a watercolor effect on the eyes using soft pinks, blues,  peach, navy and beige. The Tracy Reese Fall 2014 collection draws inspiration from juxtapositions, playing the loud and ecstatic against the pragmatic and quietly complex to create classically modern silhouettes in commanding cloths. The collection takes an intimate look at self-expression, intermixing utility pieces with unique elements that provide pops of personality and spirit. ~ …

Photo Diary: Student Styling Session at Goodwill Chelsea Boutique Store

Published by

Last Monday I had the pleasure of partnering up with Goodwill to help style at risk high school students for job interviews.  I along with stylist/blogger Shaunya worked with students who are repeating 9th grade and have been provided with a curriculum that incorporates career readiness as a major component of student learning.  I worked with 3 of the students directly; Alize, Angie and Justin. They were awesome and I had so much fun! My job was to help the students put together looks that are interview appropriate that will help boost their confidence and get them excited to pursue and work toward their job and career goals. Here are some candid shots of me working with Angie to put together her outfit! It was amazing to see how the attitudes of the students changed the second they put on their new interview ready attire. They felt confident and ready to kick major butt. Don’t they look great?  Did I mention we scored all of their outfits at Goodwill?! We were at the Chelsea location …

‘Goodwill Suits You’ Fashion Show 2013 Event Recap

Published by

The ‘Goodwill Suits You’ Fashion Show took place on October 1st at the 3rd ave Harlem Goodwill Store location to kick of Disability Employment Awareness Month. I participated as a stylist for 3 fabulous models:  Richard, Sheril and Kim! I met with each of them individually at Goodwill Stores to help pick out professional attire that they can walk the runway in and use for the workplace. Here are some pics of them working the runway during the show! I styled Richard in a dark grey suit with a paisley tie that will be perfect for when he goes on interviews in the communications/tech space. Richard was so much fun to work with and he definitely did his thing on the runway! Sheril was my super model because she is so tall and slim so I styled her in a black knee length pencil skirt and a fun printed blouse paired with a sweater to make it office/work appropriate since the blouse had no sleeves. Sheril worked it! The tweed jacket Kim is rocking was such …

Nolcha Fashion Week: Karo Swimwear Spring/Summer 2014 Runway Show Review

Published by

Karo Swimwear is the brainchild of Polish designer Kasia Roginska who launched her collection just this past January. She designs each piece to have built in jewelry and stones, which makes her swimsuits really pretty and unique. Her Spring 2014 collection was very eclectic and funky, which was really fun to see live. The line consisted mostly of monokinis and bikinis in bright fun colors with embellishments and sexy silhouettes. “My vision is to create something totally unique, a piece that’s not only a swimsuit. I want it to be a piece of art, something that makes woman feel elegant, edgy and sexy at the same time. Each piece has built in something that every female cherishes…jewelry.” ~Kasia RoginskaMy favorite swimsuit from the collection is called “Cleopatra” its the olive green suit with the embellished top (1st photo). I think its safe to say you have to be a daring and bold female to rock her sexy pieces because they are definitely more for show than for actual swimming! I loved how each models shoes matched their …
