The Difference Boutique x Fall '15

When my friend Niesha asked me to model in the latest fall campaign for her online boutique, The Difference, I was a little hesitant to say the least. I can be extremely shy, a little awkward and at the end of the day I'm no model…. but I decided to push my apprehension aside and take a leap. Shooting with Niesha was great, she's truly a one woman powerhouse - she handled everything from the styling, photography, edits, etc (not to mention that her shop is awesome!). I'm happy that I had the opportunity. We got some pretty good shots and I'm able to cross another item off of my bucket list. Be sure to check out The Difference Boutique to view my foray into modeling and don't forget to shop while you're there! ;)


( SIDE NOTE: Trying out a new line of hair products - so far, so good. Will do a review soon. )

Recap: The B- Word Screening

1. Celeste and the "Creole Sour Patch Kid" aka moi. Her words, not mine.

2, 3. Wanted to take this bucket hat home. I didn't.. I should have.

4, 5. The best sushi and tacos are on the West Coast.

6 - 12. Amoeba Music with my cousin and West Coast transplant Stee,

my new favorite hoodie and Grey Ant.

13. When in LA I drink Thai iced tea at least once a day. So good. My addiction.

14. Coachellaaaaa..

15 - 18. Pre- "The B-Word" screening selfies.

16. The B-Word played on six screens in RAIN nightclub in Studio City, CA. There was a good turnout and everyone seemed to enjoy the three films that were played.

17 - 18. The producing duo behind "The B-Word," The Celistan twins!

19 - 21. Post- screening fun. This wasn't the dress that I originally planned to wear.. but it was the first I tried on and I fell in love with the simplicity of it. It gave me a Carrie vibe. My sister Tamika was my date and she proved to be a true team player when the party moved from the screening to Sardo's karaoke bar! There's footage, but it will never get out.. lol. We performed Outkast "Ms. Jackson" in honor of their Coachella performance and Brandy "I Wanna Be Down."

 

( SIDE NOTE: The B- Word screening was so nice! From the film to the venue - I am so proud of my cousins for pulling off such a major feat. I can't wait for it to come to DC and to see what else these amazing girls have in store. Congrats ladies! )
