90's Jam Session: Shanice - When I Close My Eyes

I haven't performed in front of a live audience in over a year since my rendition of the Star Spangled Banner in front of 8,000 people for my college graduation.

Soon, I'll be singing at my childhood friend's wedding. Positive that I'll see people I know from high school, it's got me feeling really nervous. I think I'm more relaxed performing in front of people I don't know since they don't know what to expect. I get extra nervous performing in front of people I know just because if they've heard me sing before, I have this notion in my head that they're expecting so much from me.

Anyways, I've been kind of building myself up to a performance for people I know until that day in mid July through my YouTube videos. So this is another one of those videos to prep myself for that wedding singer performance:



To further prep myself, I'm meeting up with an old high school friend and we're gonna tear it up at Karaoke Bleu tomorrow. LOL. Wish me luck.

New inspiration in old songs...

Lately I've been tuning into the "Nu Shooz" station on Pandora and have been movin and groovin to the 80s and 90s freestyle jams. But there's one song from that whole era that I just can't shake off. I pretty much go with it everytime I hear this song.

Fashion Show Pictures

So, the fashion show finally happened. Did a couple tweaks to the outfits and for a college fashions show, I guess it was okay. A lot better than expected but I pretty much styled most of the 90's portion. You can find pictures of the show here.

Some of my favorites from the other portions of the fashion show were the denim reconstruction part:

Fashion Show for Black History Month

Sorry for the lack of posts!

I've been busy with school and working towards getting good at my craft! Buuut, I'll let you guys in on one of the things I've been working on. At school, we are doing a Fashion Show for Black History Month and I have chosen to work with the decade: 1990's. I tried to follow these inspirations as close as possible and curate styles worn in the 90s.

My inspirations for these looks so far have been:
