Yesterday we wrapped day 2 of the CMH Fashion Week Program Photo Shoot. I had the most fun I've had styling a shoot with this one. The team from Charles Penzone Salons rocked the looks and photographer Scott Cunningham, one of the best. We had some tight competition for the cover with contender #1, model Fiona Bryne, above and a beyond gorgeous Rachel Nimke (coming up). Stay tuned!

I said yesterday on Instagram, "I love my job." And I do!
Yesterday I met with the hair and beauty team leaders at Charles Penzone Salons to do a briefing  on hair/makeup for CMH Fashion Week's Oct. 12th Finale Runway Show. As Style Director, I presented the looks for each designer in the show. If you've been following me, you know my motto, "Go Bold or Go Home!" and the CP is ready for the challenge.

Why not! If you got it show it! She made the Maxim Hot 100 list this year in the #1 spot, so are we really surprised to see her completely naked?


She isn't just naked for no good reason either, she took
