Music Video's, Magazines and Beer Gardens, oh Mai!


Hey Guys,

I have had the busiest most awesomest (last) week evah! I have been hard at work, styling for Kenton Magazine this past weekend and met some amazing people. Tuesday, I worked with a group of talented ladies on designer Autumn Lin Kietponglert's lookbook. Autumn, has been such a pleasure to work with on set and her signature pieces are jaw-droppingly beautiful and made completely of zippers and hours of love! I say that because, if you could see the construction she puts into them, you would think someone would be insane to sit and sew every bit of it in all of its glorious construction. Immaculate work like this can only be created with passion and hard work.

The pictures are not ready to be posted here yet, but.....her latest piece has been seen on none other then, Cher! Yup, Cher's new video "Woman's World" featured Autumn's signature zipper corset. Check it out here! And you can check her out in the upcoming show hosted by Rihanna on Style Network, Style to Rock.

In other exciting news, the Kenton Magazine shoot I did was way too much fun. And when I say way too much fun, I mean "I-buzzed-off-10-inches-of-my-hair-type" fun! Erroll (hair stylist) and the entire crew and I had a great time chatting, dancing (mostly me dancing, alone) and just working alongside other creative minds.

What do you think? I have been really bored with my hair lately and actually wanted something fun and exciting. I was thinking of getting some color, but when Errol offered I couldn't resist. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. I'll probably give it a few months and grow it back.




 If you are in Philly now or in the fall, you should check out PHS (Philadelphia Horticultural Society) Pop Up Beer Garden. It is catered by Iron Chef Jose Garces. The beer, food and atmosphere are perfect to unwind on a cool summer or fall night.

The Secret to wearing Horizontal Stripes.



Loving my new Thursday Friday Chanel canvas bag and Dave! 


Putting Dave to work.

With Stripes being huge this season I could not help myself but to purchase one of fashion's biggest no-no, Horizontal Stripes. Cringe, I know. Horizontal stripes are known to make us look wider, especially in our most problem areas, our tummy and tush. But have no fear, I've found a solution to the death of horizontal stripes. Drum roll please.....  fake an hour glass! If you are like me, and live in a sea of stripes, here is what may help. When purchasing horizontal stripes, try to purchase a dress with side panels.  Be sure the side panels are strategically placed with the widest part of the panels at your natural waistline to help cinch the waist.  This will trick the eyes into believing the illusion of a slimmer waistline. Also try to have your shoulders wider than you waist and hips that will also help the entirety of your body appear smaller in relation.  Would you think twice now about wearing horizontal stripes?

Have a wonderful Monday. Say Hi to Dave!
