MAKE IT WORK

Goodness gracious,
where do I start!?! lol
I've been soooooooooooo BUSY with a gazillion things!
&& I'm still moving at at 1,000 miles a minute!
I've gotta fill you in on the deets!::


This past Friday, Chic Little Devil Style House {aka my internship} hosted an event
alongside Project Runway's Jerell Scott & Korto Momolu!!
Held in the penthouse of Fashion District's Cooper Building, it was the official after-party to L.A. Fashion Week!
The guestlist was overflowing with a craaazy amount of names,
celebs && even more fab folks.








I arrived early to help with the set up of things, and then once 8 o'clock hit,
I got the freedom to partay! lol
My friend Brittany came, along with my friend Dorothy from Dot Magazine
&& my boys Brian Timothy & Tomi of Major Hype Clothing.
Among the funky-fresh fashion crowd were many people who dressed to impress,
as well as those dressed to.......well,
I don't know what they were trying to do lol
Stephanie Pratt
and the lovely ladies from The Stunners
were all looking lovely.
I even spotted one of my favorite bloggers, Jazzi McGilbert.
I must admit, I was a bit blog-struck {?} lol && wanted to say hello,
but I could only catch a quick glimpse of her as she darted for the elevator.


























Of course the highlight of the night was the FASHION!
Korto Momolu's collection was presented first,














&& Jerell's masterpieces came thereafter.














































Both designers blew my mind with their collections!
Everyone couldn't help but ooh and aah as each model strutted her stuff.
I was definitely inspired :)



Saturday was my sister Taylor's homecoming dance.
I was so excited to see her all dolled up,
yet as soon as I got on the freeway
my tire blew out!!!
Lord knows that in 20 years of being on this earth,
I've barely touched let alone changed a tire! lol
I completely missed seeing my sister off before she left for the dance,
but my friends Cate && Tomi both came to the rescue!
Mmm..I guess in all actuality,
Cate didn't really rescue me since she didn't know how to change a tire either!
But I will give it to her, she did have the jack lol

After finally being able to make it home, I pulled an all-nighter,
sewing the chic-est blazer in my closet!
I planned on putting it in my fashion show that I have this Friday,
but we'll see.
Sewing non-stop like a maniac,
I decided that it would probably be smartest to go to bed once I read 6:30 on my alarm clock. {that's right: 6:30 a.m.! lol}
I hit the sheets for a few hours then woke up to it being Sunday.


I only slept for a few hours before it was time for me to wake up and
make my way to Fullerton for the filming of the
"Out of Order" film that I told you my line was going to be featured in!
My friend Corey from Planet Afreeka was there to dress the guys in the film while I used my clothes to dress the girls.
I had a lot of fun at the shoot, even though it was VERY long && full of
me waiting for someone to tell me they needed me.
In the meantime, I dug into some heavy conversations with the crew lol
I also met Eulogia {known by many as "Penny,"}
who is a PHENOMENAL 19 year old female photographer!
We talked for quite some time, && she told me how busy she's been with working at
L.A. Fashion Week!
We exchanged all of our contact info && have vowed
that we HAVE TO collab on a photo shoot ASAP!

WHEW!
That was a lot going on for such a short period of time lol
But hey, that's my life! lol
Hectic, busy, && full of surprises!!! :)

What's new on my agenda?
Sewing 10 new pieces for my collection by Friday!
I know the goal is pretty steep,
but I'm used to feeling like I'm in a pressure cooker! lol
Like Tim Gunn says, "Make it work." ;)
