Join the IN crowd

Last week Thursday I attended Philadephia's Premiere Networking Event, The IN Crowd. The event honored bloggers Curran Swint, Mohammad Shariff and  Carisha Simmons (not pictured). Each blogger was recognized for their hard work and achievements in Philadelphia's fashion community. The networking event also featured a fashion show, displays from vendors and designers along with live demonstrations on hair and makeup. 

Check out a few pics from the fashion show after the jump.

No Kittens Allowed

If you're an inspiring model or designer in Delaware and would like to find a platform to display your talent, then PRYME should be the first place to start.  Since their first show in September  (which I was apart of here) they have been busy hosting parties or producing fashion shows of their own. This past Friday was their kickoff to their first event of the summer, "The Hair & Fashion Show"

PRYME member, Miss Jon'e wanted to turn the models into porcelain dolls with sexy bedroom hair. To achieve this look, MUA Posh Persona gave the models smokey eyes, rosy cheeks and bold nude lips to add to their tousled teased hair. If you're interested to live by their motto "PUMP or DIE, no kittens allowed" then make sure you get in touch with PRYME for additional information on their next casting call.

Remember back in the days when we rode the school bus holding endless conversation with your BFF about the cutest guy at school while braiding your gimp to your keychain? Who would have known a decade later we would be wearing it as a bracelet? Kanye West was seen performing at Coachella with the same woven bracelets seen above by the Burkman Brothers. Here's the kicker, for just $30.00 you can get a mix of 3 bracelets and because I got people's (well. not really) I found a great site to DIY.

You’ll need:
- a curb link bracelet- embroidery thread

And if you can't find the perfect bandeau top opt for swimwear. So march on over to Karmaloop.com where i've located some of the seasons coolest bandeau tops!

Cupid's Bow

#Dontjudgeme, but I learned something new this weekend.

How many of my readers know exactly what a cupid's bow is? Well, I had no clue what it was until my BFF, Google broke it down for me. This was right after I viewed an email from Sephora with the subject line titled "Today's Obsession" which featured Make Up For Ever Uplight Face Luminzer Gel. Per advertisement, you should dab it on your cheekbones, cupid's bow and under your eyebrow arch for extra lift. I think I'll be making a trip to Sephora to get a good ole' sample so I can test this out.

Not everyone was born with a perfect cupid's bow, but hey...there's an app for that.

There is a product by Benefit Cosmetics that enhances the sexiest part of your lip.

The crisp look in this inspired menswear ensemble is serving a clean line of femininity. I always wanted to wear an all white loose pant suit at an all white affair. I'm sure I can execute this same look by wearing spring/summer soft and bold colors. Although Mary-Kate wears her suit with a pair of flat sandals, this picture still gives me the " I just left from a meeting while having lunch" look.
