THE “QUEEN DIVA REIGNS IN VERSACE”

So for those of you who didn't know, Versace has collaborated with H&M  - a very bright, colorful, and HAUTE line. And as the personal stylist for New Orleans rising star, and the undisputed Queen of Bounce - “Big Freedia” what better way to make her first red carpet appearance and national television debut, than in Versace!

 The night began with me racing off from work to go stand in line before 5pm. I first went by the H&M on Powell St. in San Francisco, but by 3 pm there was over 100 people in line already. So I mashed out to San Jose, the H&M on Santana Row, one of my favorite places to shop and dine. I got there around 9pm there was only about 10 of us, in line at the time, I thought, OK THIS IS GOING TO BE GREAT! I was wrong. It wasn’t great. It was cold, and crazy! Next, security comes by and says we are on private property and there is no loitering allowed! We were instructed to leave. We did. Only to return by 2 am, (LOL….) and about 50 people in line this time. More people, more noise, more chaos, and more coffee please! We were instructed to leave a second time. This time they instructed us to leave and not come back until 5a.m! By the time I came back 75 people were in front of me! Needless to say, I got my wrist- band, and I was happy with my allotted 15 minutes of shopping. I ran in and grabbed exactly what I set out to get. After 9 hours in line, 3 cups of coffee, and a lot of dedication I walked out with 2 bags full of (describe fits) I was pleased.

MTBW team making `ish happen! I love it, I live for it, and its more than my passion, it’s my life!

 And remember…..Make up Talks and Beauty Walks……..down the red carpet!!! “All hail the Queen Diva!”

EXCLUSIVELY FABULOUS

Hey now my beautiful people! Hope you all are starting this week off great... if not well I've got just the right thing to make it better ..... ONE WORD..... "BLING"


Exclusively Fabulous, now one of the leading websites in crystal designs was started in the fall of 2008 by Cherrian Levy.Launched with $5000 of her own capital, the website first only showcased her crystal designs on bangles. The idea stemmed from her love for fashion and bling and first birthed in her hometown of New Orleans. A year after first getting the idea, she moved to Atlanta and launched Exclusively Fabulous, a premier online website dedicated to making women and look luxurious. After seeing how well her clients responded to the bangles and getting orders from across the world (U.S., Ireland, Australia, Canada and more), Cherrian decided to expand the brand to include custom crystal shoes for adults and infants. The brand continues to expand and receive exposure with orders from celebrities and calls from reality tv shows asking to wear her products.
Exclusively Fabulous will continue to make moves in the fashion industry and bring unique items to the market. What's next on the list? Exclusively Fabulous is working on their own brand of shoes, so look for us soon in a boutique near you.


The lastest project was a pair of blinged out high top tennis shoes for the "ALMOST FAMOUS BIG FREEDIA THE QUEEN DIVA" covered in Swarovski crystyals.. Stay tuned to see those, I can not show them yet because Freedia said so.. lol

EARRINGS.........

OK, So I think by now my readers, friends, and family know that my weakness is for MAKEUP AND EARRINGS!..... Lets face it, I don't leave home without a pair. I search high and low, state to state.. to find some nice pieces. I came across this young lady who had the most colorful creative earrings. She is from PA and has been making earrings on Etsy.com since 2006.  We chatted on Etsy.com a few times so I placed an order and fell in LOVE with them. She has a unique style, yet very classy and no too over the top. They are so VIBRANT and trust me when you wear them they def stand out! I like her whole line because its like I never seen before. We all know that I like color so take a look and tell me what you think....Her earrings are hand-made using wood, paint and charms.
