Shot by Daniel Miceli





My co-worker, Daniel, decided to use me as one of his models for one of his photography projects for school. He wanted to get shots of friends in casual wear in their neighborhoods. I didn't want his trip from Brooklyn to Queens to take him forever so I told him to just meet me on Jamaica Avenue. It's funny that I decided for that to be the location seeing how I despise the place with uttermost hate. Danny managed to get some great shots though.

OG NEE

A good friend of mine, Nneoma, came over to my house to pick up her book. It was a beautiful day outside and she had on a well put together outfit so I decided to take a few shots of her. No, actually I'm lying. I was sitting on my porch enjoying the breeze then out of no where Nneoma says "Yo why you parlaying for? Go get cha cam and take a few pics of me, boy." Then I replied "Oh my fault OG Nee, I got you!" Lmao. This is really how it went down though.




A Few Shots/Nigerian Parade

I got to the Nigerian Independence Parade super, duper late. In case you haven't noticed I have a thing with being fashionably late to events, lol I don't know why. Nigerians are always late, though. =P I really liked the outfit I had on for the parade so I decided to do a little mini shoot in front of my house with it on.






Bye, Bye Poof!

Most of you who truly know me know that I shaved all my hair off about 8 months ago. My hair was dry, brittle, and damaged. I barely had any good hair left on my hair, so I decided it was time for it to go. It was really hard for me to do because I was so used to always having a weave in my hair, but I had to do that big chop. I did it then bleached my hair blonde. I got tired of that look and decided to buy a big poofy wig. The gigantic afro became my new look, in which I fell in love with it. I actually bought a second wig after my first one started getting nappy. Now, I have long box braids. Oh, how I miss my big poof, though...*sigh*

Aston Mozie Presentation

I attended The Aston Mozie Presentation with some friends. I realized after leaving that we didn't capture any actual pictures of the Presentation. We arrived pretty late, but we did manage to capture other stylish attendees.

The Fashion Massacre

During New York's Fashion Week my friends and I set off to see The Fashion Massacre. It was full of edgy designs all provided by the Strange Vixens. All the models' makeup were done by the Rockeresque Beauty Company. And get this- everything from the show was vegan and 100% cruelty free! How great is that? Here's some pics.

Fashion Night Out 2011

This was my second year attending Fashion Night Out. Last year, it was a great mess. I came pretty late and didn't do much but walk around and drink free booze. This year, things were a bit better. I met up with a group of friends and we basically just got photographed by onlookers all night. Of course, we had to get pics of other stylish divas as well. Here's a look at some of them:
