MAKE IT BUN DEM: BEAUTY. HAIR. DUBSTEP X

September 4, 2012 in My Music, STYLE

Here are a couple of shots from the video shoot I recently wrapped up! FYI, I’m really excited about new upcoming opportunities! ( I can’t wait to share).  I did this post because I always get my make up done and never get a chance to capture the moment from my perspective.  This look was for a video hosting segment, and I really like how natural and fresh my makeup looks, and especially how it complements my high bun. I’ve been rocking this high bun look all summer, it’s fresh and honestly it really keeps the hair out of my face.  These photos will help you recreate the look and I made a list of the products that Quiyba (The Hair/ Makeup Artist)  used below.  Also, check out the Skrillex & Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley – Make It Bun Dem After Hours (EP).  This EP is an amazing combination of electronic dance and reggae music!  I love that Damian Marley is continuing to work with artists from around the world, this sound adds so much more flavor to his already dope tracks! Damian Marley is one of my favorite Reggae artists and Skrillex is currently holding it down when it comes to electronic music …I Love the EP. You can purchase it on BeatPort.

MARINA & THE DIAMIONDS – PRIMADONNA X

March 20, 2012 in Snacks, STYLE

Check out this new Marina & The Diamonds track ‘Primadonna’ …  It’s an electro-pop mash up produced by Benny Benassi.  The official release date is April 16th, but i’ve been listening to it on Spotify & Soundcloud.  I love this track, it’s very girly and def. a great song for the Spring and  Summer.  Marina & The Diamonds is dope, I’ve been listening to her for a while… I first discovered her music while I was in Japan, they kept playing ‘Mowgli’sRoad‘ on MTV, and since it was one of the few songs in English on that channel, I was def. enjoying it!  Check out her newest single below & let me know what you think.  I also put together my four primadonna inspired items:
Thierry Lasry Sunglasses, Molami Headphones, Dior Poison Perfume, YSL Lipstick, Rachel Roy Earrings.

TORTOISE & BLONDE COLLECTION & THE JANE DOZE MIXTAPE RELEASE

March 2, 2012 in Reviews, Snacks


I recently checked out the Tortoise & Blonde collection at The Jane Doze mixtape release party. Tortoise & Blonde is a dope eyewear brand working with a lot of the current and popular musicians around NYC… like Ra Ra Riot, Pearl & The Beard and the Jane Doze.   I’m loving the Tortoise and Blonde glasses they are definitely stylish and chic. I tried on about four different frames, but my favorite ones were these leopard print frames I am wearing on Guest of a Guest.  In addition, I also hung out with The Jane Doze girls & we spoke about their music and recent mixtape which I posted below. Their new mixtape ‘Girl Talk’ has a little bit of everything, and it’s a mash up of pop, indie, hip hop and even some Whitney Houston … basically everything you can think of.  This is the kind of mixtape you would play on a girl’s night after downing about ten glasses of cranberry and vodkas at a NYC  nightclub. You know how it goes… standing on the couch, one hand in the air.  If you’re looking for the perfect music for a girls night then this mixtape is for you … promoter and vodka not included.  Download the new The Jane Doze mixtape here.
