Late night styling...

It is exactly 11:35pm.

Two friends just left my home after a late night styling session.

The International Beauty show is tomorrow and one of my friends does hair and make-up...
The IBS is a trade show where all of the hair and beauty companies showcase their products and they have thousands of beauty professionals together all under one roof . there are both seminars and amazing performances surrounding the 3 day event. My friend has work to do on 2 of those days.

They are required to wear all white one day, and all black the other. She wanted us to go over the looks to make sure they were on point. I love collaborating with other people in the fashion industry because they are easier to persuade to try something cutting edge , either new, old or daring. She is also GORGEOUS and would make a sack look good!! LOL!

Her white look was great...
a short sleeve military style blouse , that had bright silver buttons everywhere..., white wide leg pants, and round toe white , stiletto boots. I would have LOVED to break the white, but due to the color constrictions, I had to settle with the a lilac colored set of beads...as the only hint of color!

Her black look on the other hand will be sexier than ever!!
Black leather bustier top (with boning ) on top of a white wife beater and black leather pants. silver choker at her neck...

I must say I love what I do!!
Have a great week all!!!

Sorry... did I read right? What the *?@ is a 'white wife beater'. I'm not too big to say "I don't know, please educate me." Infact I might have one in my wardrobe and not know I was on the cutting edge of fashion as I've just found out with my GMG bags. :-)

@ ms zee,
if i have her permission to show the pictures , i will. I didnt go for the show itself, so i dont have any pictures of my own :(... she said she felt amazing!!
of course you can copy the style, its not mine exclusively! enjoy creating those looks, and feel free to ask , if you need some ideas for your closet or a night out...

@OND, how have you been dear? thx for the compliment, she truly looked really great!!

@omara...sweetie , trust your girl to always help jare, dont worry, you kuku know what it is, you just didnt knpow they call it that . Its the ribbed tank top that looks like the mens undershirt ( in naija we call them singlets)- they are made of thicker material for the women as we wear them alone. they look amazing on jeans, long skirts, short skirts, pants, underneath a blazer...sigh dont get me started o...we could be here awhile!!

Wow - it sounds like it will be a blast. i love the black and white idea myself. One seems more elegant while the other seems more sexy. Keep us posted as to how it goes.
