Gettin' Out - Inspired in NY #2 (Urban fashion night)

See Pics Below..

S
o, Bombay Sapphire got together with Emil Wilbekin (Vibe Mag) and created a Week Long Celebration of Urban Art, Fashion, Film, Literature and Music During Black History Month

The week long event was called 'INSPIRED' IN NEW YORK, an extraordinary week long tribute to the wealth of urban talent in America today.

Emil Wilbekin, worked as as curator of 'INSPIRED' IN NEW YORK, which brings together a series of nightly events in an intimate 23rd Street location that has been temporarily re-designed as the ultimate SAPPHIRE LOUNGE and private performance space.

Each night was inspired by a particular field of creativity -- art, film, fashion, business, literature and music -- and is co-hosted by a leading urban icon who will honor the talent that has inspired them.

It was soooo much fun hanging out & seeing many of our friends & Industry acquaintances (sometime we get so busy working in the studio we don't get to see anyone anymore

My God is so amazing:)



HEEEY!!!

I went to the Covergirl Queen Collection Cosmetic Ad Campaign--Open Call 7am past Monday morning and was chosen out of hundreds ladies for a Tuesday Callback! My Tuesday interview went very well. You KNOW I keep a positive attitude at all times so PRAY FOR ME:) I would love to represent for all the true Queens AND Kings that I know:)

I always say that My Smile is the window to my spirit. And I met many positive sisters on the line. And it was FREE-ZING!!! LOL. My Callback interview was wonderful, blessed, exciting and surreal. A higher power is leading me and I am trusting his plan so far.

I am so humbled & honored by the whole experience that MY God has placed before me. I put it in his hands. Without him-there is no me. I now hope, that I am The CoverGirl they seek:)
No matter the outcome, I had a blast!

MY PRAYERS ARE UP!! MY SPIRIT IS UP!! MY GOD IS UP TO SOMETHING GOOD FOR ME!! Talk to you soon.
