HOW TO WALK

So lately I've been getting emails/facebook messages/twitter DMs about modeling. Its kinda of crazy that young ladies are asking me for advice, because I really don't know what I'm doing my damn self! haha but flattering to say the least. Before I hand out advice that isn't the best, I can at least show you guys a few videos on how to do what I am currently learning. the following video clips are from ExpertVillage.com You can see all their videos on youtube on modeling tips. These just happen to be a few of my favs!

RIP THE DAMN RUNWAY

Summer is officially OVER. Bummer Right!? School is starting and most importantly Fashion Week is right around the corner. I'm not gonna lie and say that I'm ready for New York Fashion week, but I'll keep it local and stick with DC Fashion week. Sept 20-25 is going to be ridiculous in the DMV. Too bad I didn't make the roster! lol. Its all good though, I DID however get casted for 3 fashion shows thus far in the weeks leading up to DC Fashion Week. I must say, this runways stuff is NO JOKE. I'm learning to take the criticism and grow from it, not always easy I must admit. But that's apart of the job.

Knowing all along that I'm not the quintessential runway model (by any means) but it is a step in the right direction. No designers have come out and said those dreaded words, but I'm sure its just around the corner. "You're too fat", "you're too short". I know its coming just a matter of when! In the mean time I'll get back to my work out regimen, in attempt to tighten up these buns! HAHA.

I'm still a free agent, which is probably for the best. Learning on your own is a great way to learn afterall. I'm ready for more work, but not quite ready for the commitment that comes with an agency.

I'll post the info for my upcoming shows later this week.
Thanks for reading!

ALL LOVE. NO H8

Hey guys I'm back with a vengeance, and this time I'm showing you how I keep my word. The picture shown above is my OFFICIAL,(yet not so official) NO H8 campaign ad. This is soooo important to me because I can understand what if feels like sometimes to NOT be treated fairly. This series of photos were taken by the always artist Jonathan Thorpe, who is more than a pleasure to work with. And for those of you who do not know why the NO H8 campaign is such a big deal, take the time to watch my video. This PSA should explain it all. I'll keep you posted on any revelations on PROP 8.
