MANIC PANIC

I got some great news that.. manic panic my favorite hair dye wanted to sponsor me. I was jumping up and down even called my mommy.She just said "thank god you'll save some money".
Ive always used this brand from when I had orange hair,purple,blue,teal to yellow hair you name it. I love this brand.





boxes and boxes yayy!

it almost conditions my hair in a way;and stays pretty long for me. It helps if you wash your hair in not scorching hot water. luke warm to keep the color longer too.If you have a dry hair type this will be great for you.

It's nice to sleep in my MP shirt now<3

whatever you do though.....do not eat the manic panic..colors may look yummy!

Halloween

A few friends and I got our costumes on and winter coats and headed to the east village. Its my favorite part of the city.Im there at least once a week. We went to my favorite restaurant 7A than headed to Greenhouse and danced the night away.Greenhouse was crazy packed,I just felt a little overwhelmed. What did you guys do for halloween?



Every asian in nyc that night was giving me dirty looks hahahahah!

Trouble and Bass Girls

My girl Valissa hit me up to work a party last minute as a pin up hot as hell girl for Trouble & Bass/Drop the lime party at Public Assembly.I passed out TB merch all night and keeping the energy high with my girl friends! What a great job!

I am picky about my DJs and I have to say I was IMPRESSED. Drop the lime started spinning rockabilly and managed to speed it up and turn it into an electro-rockabilly sound I had never heard before!The captain was also amazing! he had break down after breakdown. It just never stopped! The entire venue was crowded at 11pm, so early that by the time it hit 2am there was no breathing room. It was the perfect night, I wouldn’t have changed anything! Im so glad to have met all those boys,because now im a huge fan! And hope I can work with them in the future.

Also got to meet a great lady vintage vandal,who said she'd been a fan for a long time. Feels great to have such awsome people like what you do.

I danced the night away with Roxy Cottontail,Jessica,Liquesa,and Valissa was so fun!

Oct your so busy

Hello.. I feel like death today. I really cant stay out till 5am..im only 22 and Im an old lady already. haha Last night was so fun though. I went to my friend worm's apt watched some crazy infomercials That have his Halloween costume in it. Dont ask. ha watched alot of die antwoord videos. They are so crazy,but im getting into it.

We packed my car up with lights and cameras,and cake and headed over to my friend Jeffree's hotel. We had 30 minutes to really film something awsome.. so we set up pink gels on drapes..and went wild. Its easy to do with a friend.. just be crazy! Having a crazy pillow fight and dancing along to some rusko.

we were greeted by Brooklyn designers cocoa and breezy at the door.. there to deliver sunglasses. twins that look like Rhianna.. so cute.

We than wrapped up and headed down to the east village to a club and ran into alot of old friends. Was great! Stopped into my favorite restaurant 7A and got some coffee and cake at 3am.


At some point at the end of the night it ended with me driving jeffree back to his hotel with two boys in the back! Kissing ! Im not too sure how that happened. hhaha

Bigger the hair closer to god.

So I really wanted to write about my favorite photographer. Not just in Nyc but in general.Steve Prue of team rockstar is hands down the best. Ive worked with him for the past few years creating images left and right..hes always down for my crazy Ideas and I love him for it. From my bathtub photo to me riding an ice cream cone in my room,he never fails to capture what I see. We've def shot over 1,000 images together over the years. And im very excited that we are now venturing into what next?......video. Just seems like the right next step.If your not familiar with his work..look him up .His saying is "The bigger the hair closer to god". Enough said...this man is a rockstar. http://teamrockstarimages.com/

Diamond hairspray

Today I shot with Strange vixens two designers from Brooklyn to do promo shots for them. Had a blast ..very nice chill girls. We started the day shooting a hairspray can stuck in my head by pins. Kristin did a great job busting it out in 20 min.



We than shot another outfit with them than said my goodbyes. I left the studio to go to party city to pick up some supplies and saw that I got a 115$ ticket for no standing zone.. of course. Oh well I was so thrilled to be doing more video work I didn't get too upset. We picked up some ketchup and mustard bottles to squeeze shit all over me and the an alley. It was such a fun video to make. My friend worm came to share the excitement of the mess we were making.. I think i even fake peed mustard onto a wall at one point. hahah! I really cant wait to show you guys more short video's. Planning to do a few with worm soon too.



There was condiments all over me so I just got in the studio shower in my full latex suit to just get it all off.That turned into a small shoot of its own haha.

We finally wrapped up.and went to a cute restaurant called life cafe. worm steve ,and i all had a big feast with a giant cookie sundae at the end. Was a pretty nice day xo

more photos up soon from this day ..time to go to bed and softly play eminem-The way I am. so good.
