Kehlani UNCAPPED


                                                                            Like the title of my Blog...I try to stay on the go here in New York City. Well in this adventure I ended up going to the Fader Uncapped. Uncapped is a series of 5 concerts by various artists in the span of 5 nights in one city put on by Fader and Vitaminwater. This year was Uncappeds 5 year anniversary of the concert series.  I got a chance to go on 4th night which featured the artists; ThunderCat and Kehlani. Both are emerging new artist and both have great music. I will admit I was not familiar with ThunderCat but he was pretty good. I was super excited to see Kehlani perform. I've been listening to her for a few months now. I will post one of her music videos at the end of this post. Some of the other artists featured in the Uncapped series are; Matt & Kim, Sevyn Streeter, Alessia Cara, Passion Pit, Jojo, Austin Millz, Kehlani, Thundercat, Chance the Rapper, Willow Smith, and various DJ's. 

Stations to make the customized shirts.
 I love a event that has free goodies. Vitaminwater provided the drinks (alcoholic) for everyone ...I would have never thought to mix vitaminwater and alcohol but it was actually pretty good. They also featured stations where you could customize your own t-shirt to celebrate Uncapped 5th year anniversary (pictured above). It was quick and easy to do and your shirt was ready to pickup at the end of the concert. Featured below is my t-shirt design. I went with Lady Liberty theme for the front and my name on the back with a lovely pink/ purple wave design.

NFL Style: Fashion Meets Football!!

It's finally FALL!!! Even though I did enjoy the summer months roaming the city and roof tops with friends, its now my favorite time of year. What's not to love about Fall? You have Fashion Week, Football, and Fall TV shows come back on. Oh yeah and lets not forget about the cooler days, warm drinks, and the yummy food for the holidays. In this post I mainly want to talk about Fashion and Football. What happens when you mix the two together? You get NFL Style! I had the pleasure of attending a NFL Style event here in NYC a few weeks ago. Where they showcased  new female fan apparel. The event featured mannequins and live models wearing the latest football teams apparel from clothes to shoes and jewelry.  Lulu DK Tattoos also joined in on the fun with NFL metallic jewelry/ flash tattoo. They had metallic tattoos for all the teams and of course I had to try out one for the home team Atlanta Falcons.

Rep'n for the home team
 During the showcase they had a styling competition with a few New York fashion bloggers. They had to style their models in their favorite team's apparel according to different themes. The categories were: Athleisure ( sporty chic), Casual Friday, and Game Day. The winning blogger won season tickets to the team of their choice.
