My First Rocksbox

I love a good subscription box because it pays itself and when you receive your package its like having a monthly birthday present, yay! So in comes Rocksbox!  For $19/month you can rent 3 pieces of designer jewelry with an average worth of $200.  Now for me I'll admit I am a creature of habit and will pretty much only wear gold jewelry because I don't necessarily know how to pick out cute jewelry for myself and besides, gold goes with everything!  Rockbox is a great way for me to step outside my comfort zone and incorporate pieces I probably wouldn't have picked out for myself.  I really love the low commitment of it as well.  You basically take the survey, they will pick out some gems for you and you can wear them as much as you want.  Return your pieces to get 3 more pieces to rock or you can buy them at a discounted rate!

Park Avenue Fashion Show 2013

On Oct 19 the annual Park Avenue Fashion Show took place.  I have always heard such awesome things about this show but never had the chance to attend.  This year my best friend Carralyce from FitnFabMamas was debuting fashions from her new store "Red Carpet Couture" so I was attending to support her!  This fashion show was so well put together I was highly impressed!  Check out some pics from Red Carpet Couture which will be opening in November and is located at 180 Morse Blvd! She definitely has some statement pieces that fashionistas will love!

Some of my other favorites from the show were ilash Works, Eyes & Optics, and Tuni.

I loved how they found away to showcase their eyelash work but making it very interesting by putting it on shirtless men!  What an awesome idea!

Next I was not only loving the fabulous Eyewear from Eye & Optics but hello the swimwear was amazing!  The designs were by Melissa Vivo who is awesome at what she does!

Lastly I enjoyed the Hippie Chic thing the Tuni show had going.  I especially loved the head pieces. They wanted to show fashion with a social message!

Hair, makeup and fashions were phenomenal! What an awesome show! I can't wait for next year!  Photo credit goes to Steven Graffham unless noted otherwise.

Urban Turban

I was in Miami last week as a makeup artist/fashion stylist for a music video for Valholla Entertainment.  While down there I tapped into my inner June Ambrose by trying out the infamous urban turban style she's always rocking.  Not too mention the humidity down there was killing my hair so having it covered saved me from the frustration of super frizz while still being fashionable.  Also for all my natural girls this is a great protective style for your hair especially with fall and winter vastly approaching us.  This is also cute for those lazy days when you just don't want to deal with your hair.  I used a $6 scarf from H&M to create the look.  I don't know about you but I am going to be turbaned out for the fall!
