Dondria (So So Def) spotted in Affaire Clothing at Tiffany Evans Bday Bash

How this happened was too funny! I just want to remind people that everyone is brought in your life for a reason. Always make sure to network because you never know who knows who and what they can bring to your life. Do not USE people, but always take advantage of the blessings that come your way. I met a young lady earlier this year through my intern. I interned for Crystal Harris at Nya Nya Couture and I had to work a photoshoot for her that day at Derrick Blanks Studio. The young lady is an aspiring model that is wonderful in her craft! Her name is Quina Tonyell. Make sure to look her up and show your support. She had an event that she needed styling for and I always have what she is looking for. Her friend came along and loved some of my pieces as well. Her "friend" already looked beautiful, but she decided to put on one of my pieces. She looked great! They left for the event and had a wonderful time. Later on I realized who her "friend" was after I saw a picture... Her friend was Dondria from SoSo Def. I have no idea how I didn't know! Yes I have to say I was a little embarrassed! She's very sweet and her friends were too funny. Make sure to continue to show her your support! You can follow her on twitter @Dondria




Tasha Malek Oxygen's Bad Girls Club

This Photoshoot was pretty fun. Not to mention it was in Miami and on my birthday weekend... Yeah, I had a good time!!!!! It was in one of the most prestigious hotels! The Intercontinental Hotel! It was so beautiful. The room that we set up in had the best view! Ashley Ramano was the Hair stylist and Stephanie Currais was the make-up artist that I had to work with. I wanted to make sure to put them in this blog because I fell in love with these ladies! They are the funniet girls and made my anxiety of my first shoot in this type of setting go WAY down. Tasha was a cool girl too! Sometimes TV makes people real big headed but we were all talking like we knew each other forever. A very good work setting. All in all it was jokes and laughter all day so it made my job of styling the shoot pretty easy! Here are some behind the scenes.



These dresses are part of my party girl collection that has been doing really well in Atlanta. I also have some behind the scenes footage that I am so excited about as well! AFFAIRE CLOTHING ON SET! I am happy that I got to put it on someone to get some recognition and it's also a plus that she is off one of my favorite reality shows. BAD GIRLS CLUB!! Here are some of the pics that I have actually seen. If I find some more then I will post them as well! To purchase theses dresses, or dresses similar, make sure to head to affaireclothing.com. We have a lot of new arrivals I'm sure you will like!!!

Atlanta Fashion House Fashion Show at Taboo 2

September was one of the craziest months of this year! I have never over-booked myself this much but at the end, it was worth it. My birthday (September 1! Yeah yeah!) was pretty fun. I was in Miami doing what I do best and even had a photo shoot. I'll let you know who that was with when I get the pictures! It's a surprise... (Hint: BAD GIRL)... Anyway. At the end of the month I had a fashion show that I was working towards. Atlanta Fashion House was producing their first show so I was glad to be a part of it. I met one of the ladies that was working this show at a previous show so I ended up becoming a part of it because of her. (Hey Cheryl!) Long story short... The show was HECTIC! and a little stressful. I learned some serious lessons at this fashion show. This is NOTHING against Atlanta Fashion House because they put together a great show with some talented designers...but things just didn't go as I planned. There weren't any lights where we were dressing the models so I swear we had phones with flashlights trying to get them ready. I probably had 3 minutes to get all 12 of my models dressed...in the dark... with flashlights from our phones... talk about crazy!! So I was a little upset with the way about 3 pieces went on the runway but I had them work it like they owned it! Got a couple clients and someone even contacted me about a magazine article.. but we'll see about that. I even used a couple pieces from my senior collection.... Check out the pics! I am pleased for the most part. But I saw some things I want to change, add, and continue with. Another day, Another show...
