Out n About Town: Fashion Week!!!


So, as many of you know, I recently became the Senior Beauty Editor for Exude Magazine. We're an up and coming fashion and lifestyle magazine targeting the 18-34 year old, urban, minority professional. Well, we got invited to a plethora of shows this year! This is Exude's first year at Fashion Week!!!!!

So, yours truly gets to go to some shows. I went to my first show, Ports 1961, on Thursday. To read what I felt about the show, you will have to wait till it hits Exude! So follow and/or subscribe to the magazine if you haven't already. I'm sure I'll tweet about it as well, so you can get the heads up when all the Fashion Week articles go up.

It was so incredibly fun to be amongst so many fashion lovers! I saw sooo many hot looks and kurlies, you were representing! I saw this awesome kurly with bright red hair in the audience



and fell in luv. This pic no where near does her hair or the color justice. It was a bright orange-red in a huge puff. Man, now I've gotten the itch to try color. Uh oh!



So this is what I wore to the show. Here I am inside of the tent. I made the tunic myself. You can see more pictures of it on my creative blog, Styln N Profyln. The lovely earrings I'm rocking are by none other than, Nappy Rutz.

Here's a close up on my make up



I went for another warm, autumn look using burnt orange, brown, and burgundy colors for my eyes and plum cheeks (which are my absolute fav in the colder months).

A dream of mine, since I was a little girl, has just been fulfilled!
