FINT PHOTOSHOOT PICTURES!

Hey Blossoms,

So the time has arrived. The photos from the Fashion in Nucleus Territory , www.fintny.com , have arrived. Here are the models...



















































Royal Hues for Brown & Hazel Eyes

Purple is a great color that compliments brown and hazel eyes. I paired this look with frosted lips and a bright highlighter on my cheeks that looks great for the winter time!

What's great about being a brown eyed girl is that "Brown" is a universal color and any eyeshadow would look great, but stick with deeper tones.
Tips for Brown Eyes

To accentuate hazel eyes determine first if the eyes contain more brown, green, or gray tones. Then choose eye shadows that either compliment or make the eyes pop.

Pretty in Pink: Day Look and Hair Tutorial

When you think of PINK, you think of...

See more on this post by clicking "Read More" below!


Here is how you can do this super quick day look that would be great for a romantic picnic or a day at the mall with friends.

Eyes:
To create this look at home, pick a few of your favorite pink eye shadows. Start with a light pink eye shadow across your lid, and then apply a hot/bright pink eye shadow for the outer ‘V’ of your eye using a smudge brush.  Apply a plum shade for your crease and remember to use a highlighting shade for the inner corner of your eyes and brow bone.  To make your look more sassy and flirtatious, you can line your upper lashes to create the illusions of thicker lashes and apply lots of mascara! Because this is a day time look I did not line my lower lashes, Instead I applied a pearl color eye shadow using an angled brush under my lower lashes. This effect helps your eyes look bigger and more awake.

Face:
Apply your favorite rosy blush and pink lip gloss and you’re ready to go!

Here is how you can get this cute hairstyle: 

Tools/ Products
1 ½ “ Curling Iron
Bobby Pins
Chi's Iron Guard

Flips or soft curls go great with a “Pretty in Pink “ look. I created this look by spraying my hair with Chi’s Iron guard spray. This spray helps protect the hair from heat and also has a bit of holding without the harsh chemicals of hair spray. I flipped my ends out using a 1 ½“ curling iron. While the hair is still hot, I curled up my ends with my fingers and pinned it in place. Allowing the hair to set while hot, will help the flip last longer. I suggest doing your hair first, then applying your make-up while the flips set.

QUICK BLOG: FINT PHOTO SHOOT

Hey Blossoms,

So today I had a photo shoot with a gentleman named Kwesi Edwards of www.fintny.com. An online retail store that features up and coming clothing lines as well as some already established lines, like, LUXURY or "LRG" as most know it by. Photos from that shoot will follow soon so stay tuned.

So here's what www.fintny.com is all about. Words taken straight from the website.

WELCOME TO FINT NY – THE FASHION AND LIFESTYLE NUCLEUS

As part of FINT NY education & service initiative a portion of each sale will go towards higher education to create college scholarships.

I for one LOVE the fact that FINT is providing variety and a mecca for designers international and making it available to the consumer..US! Another great idea is a portion of each sale will go to future college scholarships. So the next item you buy for yourself or someone else will keep giving! How cool is that ?!


Here's a few photos of some of the items that are available! (I did NOT do any makeup for the models I'm showing below)




What a great name and fashionable items! Check the website (www.fintny.com)for yourself so you can really get a feel for what its offering. There will be more items added very soon (I got a sneak peek at some of the items and they are hottttt!) 

I know how many of you are tired of going into your local stores and coming out looking like a mannequin or worse hoping that when you wear your outfit no one else walks by with it on, piece for piece. Online retail stores are the future. As close to exclusiveness as anyone can get while its still fresh and new! 

FINT even has a blog....check it out...http://fint-ny.blogspot.com/

Overall it was a great shoot and I met some cool and creative individuals. To top it off, I have let all my blossoms know of a new online retail store with some nice rags(ok tried to find a cool word for clothes but I guess it didn't work out lol) Hit up the website and blog and give me feedback on your thoughts, opinions or even review of an item you purchased!

 Until Next Time...LATER BLOSSOMS!
