Honey Magazine...Unofficial Launch Party

I know, I know...it's been a while since I have posted anything on this page...SHAME ON ME!!! Please forgive me...with the day-to-day of surviving, working, nurturing relationships...one in particular for me...revamping your business and/or personal life...you get the point. But I'm back, and I plan to start posting pictures...I know many people are more visual than anything...especially me...so I understand you need to see something other than text!

I attended the Honey Magazine party last night...I must say it was a very odd experience for me, because I used to work for the former publishing company that housed Honey, Heart & Soul, Savoy and impact! magazines back in 2000-2002 (it closed in 2004). Anyway, needless to say...none of my old colleagues were there...I was the lone Vanguarde alum. The venue was a trendy loft that had a bar, hair salon and art modest, basement art gallery. Very unique to say the least. The upper level where the party was, had a nice decor of tree branches, dried flowers, avant garde photos of models, some of celebrities (Cheetah Girl, Adrienne Bailon), and random garments (dress...vintage I believe) hanging elegantly & strategically from some the branches on the walls of exposed brick.

There were familiar faces...people in the fashion industry whom I've seen out & about, as well as models. The great part was open bar the entire evening, and even quaint sweet treats...mini cupcakes and cookies that were delicious. I was good...2 drinks & 1 bite-sized cupcake. I've been dieting (somewhat) and working out for the past few months 3-4 days a week. It's paying off slowly but surely.

I honestly thought I would have been able to reunite with some of my former employees, but that wasn't the case. Not sure if they knew...or just weren't interested in attending the "new" Honey party. Will I attend another of their events? Not sure...but it was great to get out & play for a bit.

I would like to style some of their shoots though...Why not? It's what I love!
