My NYFW Sept 2014 Recap Part 2

Welcome to part 2 of my New York Fashion Week Sept 2014 Recap. To see part 1, click here. This post will focus on the Fashion Shows that I worked with backstage as a makeup artist. I worked on 3 shows while in NYC for NYFW. The first two were with African Fashion Week New York and the third one was called “Life is Lust Fashion Show”, which exhibited local NYC fashion designers. In this post, I’ll focus on African Fashion Week.

A few selfies before starting my work day. Y’all have no idea just how happy I was to be working in NYC again!!

This was a huge event with lots of press and fashion designers from all over Africa. These are a few pictures of the designers being interviewed. It was held at the Metropolitan Pavilion, which was awesome because I knew exactly where it was. That’s the same venue as The Makeup Show NYC! I worked there last year with AJ Crimson.

Below I’m with my Glam Squad Team Member NYC Manicurist and Makeup Artist Vanessa. I had so much fun working with her.

We didn’t have a lot of space for the Makeup and Hair Glam Squad so we had to do makeup where ever we could find a spot. Below, I’m working on NYC Model Juanita. She has an awesome personality was such a pleasure to work with.

Here I am working with NYC model Tanesha and NYC Manicurist Gina. I was so happy to work with Tanesha again. We worked together eariler in the year for NYFW in Feb. So nice to see a familiar face in such a big city.

Below, I’m doing makeup while NYC Manicurist Carmen is doing nails.

Below is a collage of another model I worked with. I can’t remember her name, but I remember she currently lives in Europe.

I didn’t realize the two bottom pictures were so blurry until after I left.
