Visual Merchandising & Box Braids.

I have been learning so much within the visual department of Bloomsbury & working with various designers! Thank you all for your positive energy with my gigs for Urban Outfitters- I will def. keep you updated. I start my work with Rodarte towards the end of this month! I was also interviewed for a feature in BOLD Magazine, which will be coming out in the next month or so-I'll post when it is available.

                                   On a veryyy new note: I got a new do! Box Braids are back ( Thanks to Solange & Beyonce).


HELLO: ZEN MAGAZINE,AFRICA.



We ( AIMNGT & Sam Sarpong) had an amazing shoot today for ZEN Magazine's Africa sector! I was the assistant Stylist for the shoot. Although we didn't have very long to get things together, it worked out well. I can't wait to see the full cover spread! Thank you again to everyone who was involved in the shoot!

Listen..


The journey in between what you once were and who you are now becoming
 is where the dance of life really takes place.

2012 BET Weekend: I found..myself.

This year's BET Award ceremony was amazing ( & not because of the actual show). I don't think I've ever met soooo many inspirational people in less than 72 hours! For starters, my biz.partner, Sam Sarpong, hosted all of Centric's BET International pre-show events. VIBE was on the scene at every celeb dripping red carpet ( www.vibe.com) and I played a hand in all of the madness from fashion to entertainment! I even got to be young, stupid & crazy ( which means I actually relaxed and had fun after the show).

I tried to take as many flics as I could in between working and running around. I hope these tickle your fancy! Aside from the BET madness, I was also running in & out of Urban Outfitters and doing visuals for Bloomsbury Boutique ( see below). Keep your fingers crossed for me? ( I'm in the lead to be Urban Outfitters Visual Merchandiser).

Side note: Have you ever met someone that you knew automatically would impact your life in some way? Well, that 'ah-ha' moment happened to me this weekend and I just can't get over it. It's a bit hysterical- we run around throughout life searching for that something or that rude-awakening just to have a complete stranger hand it to us on a silver platter.

Well, thank God for strangers!
