On Saturday, we debuted our Spring 2015 collection 'Safari Elegance' at RAGTRADE Atlanta! The show was held at W Buckhead Atlanta with an audience of over 200 guests! The hair inspiration for my collection was strong and sexy. Phenomenal hair stylist Lisa Pope and her team executed my vision perfectly! I wanted the make-up to be fierce! and fab make-up artist, Mikki Farrar, made it happen! We re-created a dope double-lash look on one eye and covered the other with long flowing hair! (Much like I sketch my models anyway, because I can never seem to get both eyes to match..LOL) I loved it!!

Check out a few pics from the show!

Brunch + Sew!!!

This past Sunday, the fabulous Larika Page and I hosted our first Brunch & Sew. Guests from all over came to enjoy an evening of fashion, food, and fun. The evening began with music and food by the amazing Chef Haynes. While guests dined on an array of fruits, vegetables and chicken skewers, they had a front row view of Natt Taylor and Larika Page's collections. Afterwards, guests moved to the sewing section to begin creating one of a kind decorative pillows. From simple and sophisticated to sequined and neon, the pillows were nothing short of extraordinary. I enjoyed meeting and networking with everyone and I cannot wait until the next Brunch & Sew on May 4th in Atlanta!!

Add Wardrobe Stylist to my resume!!!

Having a blast styling this indie film, THE PRODUCTIVE LIE for the past few months! 'The Productive Lie' (On The Grind Films) is a story about love, lies, and the pursuit of a dream.

Working with such an amazing group of talent, creativity, and drive has been a huge blessing to me and I am so grateful for the new friendships and business relationships that we've developed!!

Thank you God for opening doors!!

My first day on set styling for The Productive Lie...

I spy a Natt Taylor LOLA dress in bright yellow!! Nothing wrong with a little product placement *wink*

DESIGN FOR KIDS!

On Saturday, we held our 1st Design Class for Kids and it was a blast!!! Students chose to design + create pillows, so after a brief introduction and a few safety rules, they sketched their designs, selected fabric and materials, and began learning how to operate a sewing machine, bringing their fabulous custom pillows to life!

Here are a few behind the scenes pics from Saturday's class!

Had a great time at Night of Spectacles 2012!

Had a great time at Night of Spectacles 2012!

After months of snapping, painting, drilling, sewing, and fitting...I was able to put together a pretty fabulous look for the Night of Spectacles 2012 fundraiser held at the Buckhead Theatre in Atlanta. The event was a huge success as the Georgia Lions Lighthouse Foundation raised over $200,000 for uninsured Georgians who receive sight-saving eye surgeries, eye glasses, and eye exams from the Lighthouse every year.

Check out a few behind the scenes pics and some notes on how I created this look!

I started with a box of eyeglasses that had been donated to Georgia Lions Lighthouse foundation...

Popped out the lenses and discarded the frames, then drilled a hole into each lens for sewing. (I counted about 300 lenses) ...

Then I spray painted all lenses with a fluorescent green paint, added a 2nd coat of gold metallic to some, and let them dry for 24 hours. I constructed the base garment in a hot pink satin fabric while the lenses were drying. Starting from the bottom, I began hand sewing each lens onto the garment, overlapping each one to hide the strings. I added a gold studded belt to finish the look.

... with my model, Dr. Jill Wells!

Sheree Whitfield, Housewives of Atlanta, served as one of the judges for the student designer competition.

This was an amazing experience & I look forward to doing it all over again next year!! xoxo
