I had a great time during Fashion's Night Out in New York with my girls who are also on YouTube. Lee Lee aka Mamichula8153, Melissa aka oxPRETTYSPiFFYxo and Nathalie aka NatyMidnight and let's not forget my friend Waise in the back which technically he was considered one of the girls for the night. He actually flew in all the way from San Francisco, California to New York the same day just for Fashion's Night Out and flew back home the next day. Only a 1 day trip. Now that's real dedication to fashion right there! As Waise quoted for the night, "I have to look fabulous just in case I see Anna Wintour" haha. Speaking of Anna Wintour, you must watch "The September Issue" which is a documentary of the behind the scenes of the making of fashion magazine Vogue. If you're into fashion, it's definitely something worth watching. Click here to watch the trailer. As for Fashion's Night Out....we had a fabulous time, despite the riot that took place in SoHo. Check out our video below to see how the night went....
I got a new Waterproof Camera as a surprise gift from Tricky for summer. It's a Sony Bloggie HD Waterproof camera and I decided to make an awesome video with my family while testing it out for the first time. I love this camera. It's shock proof and dust proof. Check out the video that I made with my family below. Hope you're enjoying your summer! =)
My DIY Shoe Rack
Anyways....it wasn't until one day I was Skyping with my dear friend Lisa and she noticed my shoe rack in the background that she wanted to know more about it. I posted a picture of Lisa and I Skyping on my Facebook and it stirred up questions about my shoe rack in the background and people wanting to know where I bought it. lol No, I didn't buy it. It was custom made. My initial inspiration came from Pinterest (oh how I love Pinterest, but how it sucks up a lot of my time from browsing. But that's a whole 'nother story lol). After a few requests to make a tutorial video on how this was made, I will be uploading one shortly on the process of the making. But in the meantime, here's a little sneak peek of some pictures of the building process.
Tricky picked up some wood from Home Depot, took some measurements based on the width and height of our bedroom wall.
Mikey cutting the wood based off Tricky's measurements.
Painted the wood with some leftover paint that we already had.
After a few nails and screws in the wall...VOILA!
I went to EDC (Electric Daisy Carnival) with my friends held here in New York. An experience that I'll never forget. A weekend full of music and love. Take a look of the video that I edited below to get a glimpse of how much fun it is. If you've never been to EDC before, be sure to go next time it's in your area. You'll have a blast!

I did a recent blog post of some pictures from my experience working at IMATS with Jordan Liberty, creator for Give Good Face. If you missed that post, you can catch up on it here. I finally finished editing the video of my time working at IMATS, check it out below.
It was such a pleasure working with Jordan who I've been an avid admirer of his work since way before he joined the YouTube community.
I first discovered Jordan on Model Mayhem years ago when he answered questions on the forum to eager makeup artists who had questions such as "what are the best products to use for a glossy eye for photo shoots." He was really good at responding back to these questions...however, it just made much more sense to just make a tutorial video which can be re-watched over and over again. Thus, the Give Good Face YouTube Channel was born and Thanks God for that! I actually used some of his techniques for my photo shoots and thanks to his advice, some of my work ended
up making the front cover of a magazine and centerfold. (see pictures) It was so awesome walking into almost every store such as Barnes and Nobles and seeing my magazine. Thank you Jordan! =)
