Styling MsCris

Image
     So lately I've been looking into styling as a career. I recently recieved my first opportunity to be a stylist via email. Her name was Ms. Cris, an upcoming female rapper. She's expecting things to take off pretty soon and she asked me if I would style her for the photos that would be later posted onto her new website. I quickly accepted the offer. It was my first time styling and the photoshoot went great! The pictures turned out to be awesome and the outfits that I chose for her were an excellent match! I am really proud of myself  =) This extravagant jacket is actually from a vintage store in Greenboro, NC. It was five dollars. Can you believe it? I absolutely love it! Fashion is really priceless. Make the best of it =D ..And the skirt is actually a beige and purple dress from American Apparel. This black/white one piece is from American Apparel also. http://www.mscrismusic.com/ photographer: DeAan Pridgeon stylist: Norma Jean Benson

Brandin Bennett is currently a Senior at North Stanly High School of New London, North Carolina. I must say she is very talented and creative. I had class with her when she was a freshman and I was a senior. Shoutout to Mr. Pierce! He's an excellent teacher. He inspired both her and I. Brandin was my competition when it came to imagination. I recently came across some of her work on facebook and was astonished at how far she has came. I like her style. Take a look =) Brandin: "Random sketchbook drawing. The face is a copy of Barry McGee, done with charcoal. The letters are color pencils and the background is spray paint." Brandin: "Final project of last semester. Drawing is of Hayley Williams from Paramore. Polyurthane was poured on top of it. The background is mainly spray paint. The entire piece is 4x4."     "Chloe" Brandin: "Assignment to improve value. Taken from a magazine add. Only used a sharpie and created the value with letters relat
