Day 4 | Allure Lounge with Maybelline New York

Saturday, September 7th, 2013

 

I was working at the Allure Lounge with Maybelline again.

 

But GUESS WHAT?

 

I ended up being extra late for the event.

 

And GUESS WHY?

 

I walk to my bus stop and my mouth fell to the ground.

 

Look at this: My day started off a HOT MESS.

 

 

 

So I head to the nearest train stop and this happens>>

 

 

All the taxi's were full and there was only one bus coming every 15 minutes.

I was screwed and there was absolutely nothing I could do but wait for an empty bus.

 

------------------------------

 

So when I FINALLY arrived to work, a few good things happened:

 

Pink Berry was giving out free frozen yogurt cones,

 

 

 

I bumped into one of my fave models from Chicago, Megan Graveline,

 

 

I also bumped into Socialite and Fashion Blogger, Joy Adaeze,

 

 

and I saw a few more celebrities pass by heading to Lincoln Center.

 

 

Paris and Nicki Hilton

 

Kenya Moore, Former Miss America and co-star of Atlanta Housewives

 

 

Mr. Jay Manuel of ANTM and Wardrobe Stylist June Ambrose

 

and Ms.Jay Alexander of ANTM stopped and posed for everybody

 

 

 

So despite the craziness that happened that morning, it was an awesome day!

New York | Part Three!

November 28th, 2010

Day 3 of the New York scene and my immune system was going down. I wanted some tea, soup, medicine, or some type of remedy and just curl up in the bed. But it hit me when I realized I came too far to just back down and give up because of a cold. Sickness wouldn't stop me!

First model of the Day: Geli.

If you haven't heard about Geli, hold your socks.
Hold ON now!!

Geli is FIERCE.
Grace Jones type of FIERCE.
2020, vintage, futuristic, out of this world FIERCE.

The wardrobe stylist on set was Joy Adaeze. Joy also brought her assistant Ashley Clemmings and recommended to us hair stylist Myki. They brought so much energy to the shoot!! Looooooved working with them!!


Second Model was Nelly Munoz of Independent Model Management.


Nelly was so pleasant, so professional, so divine, and so sweet!!! Nelly was also one of Nuru's favorite models to work with. Joy brought a vintage dress for the first look and Nelly WORKED IT! She really brought the garments to life! Nelly showed so many angles of the hair and makeup, showed the dresses off so well, and the shoot went so smooth.

Here's a few photos from the stylist's Joy Adaeze's Blog:
