NCFA Style Week Night 2

The night is young and I headed to Style Week Night 2 at the Le Meridien Hotel.  I wore this White Deep V neck Romper from Forever 21 and a custom tailored jacket by Manigance that I found in Las Vegas.

The second night of Style Week was headlined by fashion designer, actor Stevie Boi. Who is also the founder and designer of luxury eye wear brand SBS shades. SBS Shades have been worn by celebrities from Lady Gaga, and Beyonce to Madonna. He showcased his new collection entitled CABIN. 

Night 2 also showcased local Charlotte designers; Fashion & Compassion, Aubrey Busek, Mack Couture, Koko Nanga,  2twentyceven, and Priya Saluja.

All of their collections were vibrant, chic, sexy, and beautifully crafted! Check them out by clicking their links above.

NCFA Style Week Night 1

North Carolina Fashion Association kicked off Style Week with a blast.  The theme for the first night was emerging fashion designers.  NCFA Style Week is a once annual, week long, fashion event. This year Style Week was held at Le Meridien Hotel in Uptown Charlotte.

I wore this gorgeous Nicholas gown.  It was a tea-length ponte ball gown, sleeveless with a deep v-neck that fit me like a glove. I was lucky enough to sit front row VIP all three nights and witness the magic!

 The “Emerging Artist” theme, showcased work from The Art Institute Of Charlotte, and upcoming and local designers;  Starr Sutton, Terrence Henderson,  and Tygerian Lace.  It was a fabulous collection of creative, sexy, vibrant gowns.

Stay tuned for the rest of my Style Week adventure.

 

My New Favorite Face, Body, and Lip Scrub

I had the pleasure of meeting Chandler Gongloff who represents Hunter Brookes last week at NCFA Style Week.  I received Hunter Brookes Skin Dirt and Lip service in my swag bag, both of which I immediately started using. The results have been amazing. 

Don’t let the name fool you, this product and it’s catchy name are going to be your new favorite too. Skin Dirt is a face and body sugar scrub handmade by Hunter Brookes a company in Charleston, South Carolina.  Hunter Brookes and their products were created by a group of women battling with skincare issues. Hunter Brookes makes skincare products from activated charcoal and Bentonite clay. 

Skin Dirt is made with active charcoal which is amazing for exfoliating the skin, clearing acne, lightening blemishes, detoxifying the skin, and removing blackheads.  I’ve notice my own skin is softer, smoother, and brighter.  My skin feels refreshed and really great to the touch. I’ve even noticed my makeup goes on better. Another great product from Hunter Brookes is their Lip Service lip scrub. It’s gentle enough for everyday use and help chapped lips and fine lines. 

It’s very important to me to support our local businesses. I only share products that I use and believe in. If you would like more information about Hunter Brookes and their products including a great discount of 10% OFF, use this CFPSCRUB coupon code at check out.
